I don't see either of those happening. Ask me again after the Villa match, still suffering with a bout of the Ashley’s where I’m expecting the wheels to come off.

STM Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I've done the predictor thing 3 times over the last two weeks, and each time I've ended up with us 6 points above Spurs. I've even put us getting beat against Villa and Arsenal, and drawing against Brighton and Chelsea. I feel like I'm doing it wrong. Spurs have Man United and Liverpool. I think that's their killer.

We would all possibly looking at being 6 points behind Manure. I seriously can’t see us getting beat the rest of the season. By the time we beat spurs we will be home and dry for champions league. For one in an eternity we are getting the rub of the green. Coming back from one goal down against Brentford and beating West Ham is not the same as still having arsenal, Villa, spurs and Chelsea to play - bold statement. edit - and Brighton Edited April 10, 2023 by Gawalls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 The ability of some of our fans to downplay our results whilst bigging up other sides is tremendous. Also see the Relegationometer, where folk were fretting about numerous teams all simultaneously going on amazing runs of form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is me commenting on somebody saying then can’t see us getting beat the rest of the season when we still have the top of the league team to play still really that much of a downplay ffs?

I wasn't talking about your comment in particular. They said though Brentford away is one of the toughest away trips if the season. They have a better home record than Chelsea and Villa. Inflicting only their second home defeat on them is a tremendous result. I agree, I don't think we'll go the rest of the season unbeaten, but at the same time there isn't any remaining game that I fear or that we can't win. Arsenal will almost certainly be our toughest task. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fountain Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 In 16-17 Arsenal finished 5th on 75pts. However that was a freaky season as 8th place Southampton finished on 46 pts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 I had always thought Liverpool were going to come back into it as well but there's no way they catch either of us now. It's between us two and Spurs for the two spots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was nervous about the Brentford game but to be honest I was always more nervous about our next game. read somewhere if you drew a league table based on when emery was here then Villa would be third with us being fifth and Brentford right down in eighth.

Just had a look at Liverpool’s fixtures and you’re not wrong - at a glance it sends an easy 18 points for them but even then, 7 points for us keeps them below us. i think they have too much to do to finish above us and if they do then I feel we’ve seriously done something wrong.
