The Europeometer™ (2024/25) - NUFC Qualify for Champions League

[AngelofTheFourth]

We aren't losing to Leicester.

[Geogaddi]

Still in our hands , what other teams do is irrelevant really as if we win all our home games and beat Leicester it will be enough for top 5 regardless of other results . 

[gbandit]

In two week’s time we’ll have played four PL games. We’ll probably have a very good idea if we’re getting top five after the Villa game

[buzza]

Forest and Chelsea have some difficult games in their run ins. We might even Get third if we keep our form

Brentford need to do us a massive favour tomorrow 

[buzza]

Brentford are well capable of beating them at home

On balance I think we’ll beat Leicester and put Man U away as the crowd will be well up for that. As you say the Palace and Villa games will give us a much greater idea of how things might pan out.

That Villa win felt terrible because it thrusts them right back into it, they're just bloody annoying.

We have a better goal difference, a game in hand and still have to play them. Add to that they still look pretty brittle to me and they’ve got the fa cup and CL to contend with still. I’d argue it’s better that Forest gets dragged back into it a bit.

Even better. Two games in hand.

Does mean we've got a better chance of catching Forrest though. Win at Leicester and we're only four points off them and a game to spare. Realistically, we could win the next three and be 3rd, won't be easy but it's do able.

[et tu brute]

If we win the next three, then we'll be in a very strong position to qualify top 5.
 

I actually think Gordon will be key to this. I'm hoping we have a reaction, for his recent stupidity and additionally, with the fans sticking by him (unlike Everton fans), I honestly believe he will be really fired up on his return. 

[Kid Icarus]

That Villa Forest result really brought out the full spectrum of reactions like.

Everyone is forgetting that Emery wakes up every night in a cold sweat thinking about his last three meetings with Eddie.

And for some strange  reason keeps saying "Good Ebening".

[NobbySolano]

I've been saying for a bit, I don't know why people are counting arsenal a sure thing for second.

 

They dropped points today. They have big games coming up and don't have the depth or quality. 

 

I wouldn't be surprised if they drop more points and get in the fight for champions league.

Saka returning will help, would love to see it mind

Palace are on great form. Not a gimme. Absolutely hate them.

Its been a weird season 

 

Cup win and scouse fan/club reaction has essentially vanquished the demons of my Liverpool hatred. For now at least.

 

Villa have been feeling similar teething pains to us, after treading the same CL path and squad/PSR restrictions we did.

 

I'm unlikely to ever drop my Lee Dixon inspired Arsenal hatred but Manure aside I've lost a ton of my anger to clubs. Palace don't bother me, they are below us.

[James]

Palace are about to enter an intensive weekend/midweek run of games right up to their semi final, they will be using their squad which will advantage us

I’d forgotten about the FA cup👍Palace will be a really tough match though.

If we win tomorrow. I’m actually pretty sweet on our chances of CL. 
 

Some tough games left, for sure. But plenty around us are stuttering a bit, we play the likes of Brighton and Villa who based on recent performances. We shouldn’t be maybe quite so scared about as a few weeks ago. Also Chelsea at SJP and they are nowhere near as good on the road. Despite results, they’re hardly playing well at home, either. 
 

Going to get incredibly tight, mind. Now looks like Forest are going to get dragged back into it. So them, City, Villa,  Chelsea, NUFC and maybe one other from 8th-10th all vying for 3 positions.

Looking at Forests fixtures they “should” be ok but if Wood is out for a period and they start stuttering all fixtures become tricky. I’m pretty confident of beating Chelsea at home because the crowd will be mental and radge if a win gets us top four or 5. 
 

Still feels to me like this initial block of games going it other Villa game are key. They could really cement CL qualification.

My hatred for Bournemouth has gotten stronger because they turn into Real Madrid everytime we play them.
