The Europeometer™ (2024/25) - NUFC Qualify for Conference League (at least)

[t00nt00n313]

I think if we draw to Chelsea, it could be smart to go full defensive (which we never normally do) against Arsenal so as to just not get our goal difference down too much, then  look to thrash Everton. 

 

It could genuinely come down to goal difference between us and Chelsea if we draw to them this weekend.

 

Cept to be honest I reckon we are much better to just doing what we do best and just having a go at it.

Nah. Either Forest dropping points at West Ham or Chelsea v ManU gives us a decent chance without beating Arsenal. We may no longer be favourites but would be silly to think it’s over. Hope this sort of energy isn’t in the crowd on Sunday.

We always needed to beat Chelsea.  That’s been obvious for some time. Only way we beat Arsenal is if they are in the CL final imo.  
 

IMO the point at the Amex was a bonus. it’s an extra blanket against Villa.

Think if we draw to Chelsea this weekend it's not completely over.

 

But we'd need to get 4 points from arsenal away and everton at home, so most likely draw to arsenal away which will be difficult then beat everton at home, could be doable if we just go hard on defense maybe, especially if they are being careful not to injure anyone for the CL matches. Could really do with arsenal beating l pool this weekend and securing CL football before playing us, but it's at anfield and I reckon this is one of the few games l pool will take seriously.

 

Wed also need villa to not win all of their 3 remaining games in this scenario.

It’s not energy 😂 talking in a forum isn’t anything to do with supporting the team in the stadium. My opinion is the game on Sunday is 100% must win.

People are driving themselves mad in here. Watch the games play, shout your lungs out to help get the right result. That's all that really matters.

 

Stattos still think we're significantly more likely to qualify than Chelsea, Forest and Villa, and we only need to beat two of them.

I enjoy watching how no-one knows what our results will be, but they’re CERTAIN of what the every other team’s results will be

That's true. I just think there is so much riding on this that most are freaked out.

Understandably, there's too much over thinking going on. It's simple, It's in our own hands, just what we would have wanted with just 3 games left.

 

One game at a time, win the next one, that's all we need to focus on.

 

 

3 points is the magic number

Arsenal have been below average recently. A point there is definitely achievable even with Big Joe out.
