timeEd32 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 From midtable, manager out depression to planning on making up a 10 point gap with six games to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazzy Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Finishing in the top 6 and pushing Man Utd out of it will do for me. The old Top 6 is dead. Both us and Villa in place of Chelsea and Man U would do nicely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt1892 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 We have only had three league victories in a row once this season I believe, outside of that we have only had back to back victories on 2 other occasions, including today. If we can get some sort of form which should be achievable considering our run of games, then there is no reason why we shouldn’t come 6th, anything else will need a capitulation from either Spurs of Villa. Extremely unlikely but all we can do is put as much pressure on as possible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows with this crazy season ??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs have a good history of going to already relegated clubs late in the season when there's positions riding on it. If they're going into them on the back of 2-3 hidings they'll become a bit icky.

Jaqen Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 That's wins against all the 'top 6' this season now other than Liverpool isn't it? Annoying we've smashed Villa twice and Spurs again today but will finish below the both. Think even just having Barnes and Pope available we'd have finished above them.

Yorkie Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 The fact we can even jest about a late top 4 surge is incredible, frankly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Top 4 obviously is extremely unlikely but if we finished 5 at villas expense that would be incredible silver lining to an insanely challenging season. Dropped points will be our enemy though. I'm just hoping we can finish in a European place. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's be honest, even if we did pull off a minor miracle and finish 5th it would still mean EL instead of CL........ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Can someone help me with the European places, if we finish 5th it’s either CL or Europa. 6th is Europa or Conf League and 7th is Conf league? so finishing as low as 7 is gtd European footie? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'd need either England to get the extra CL place or a team in the top 4/5 to win the FA Cup. If both happen, then 8th would be enough.

Liverpool won league cup so 6th is conf. If City win Fa cup Conf will be done to 7th with extra Europa in the league. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joelinton7 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Would really fancy us to win that Conference League. But if we carry this run on CL could be mighty close. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

80 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 I realise this isn't the time, but God if we could have turned Everton and Luton into wins... We can do this. We shouldn't rule it out until it's mathematically impossible. There's a reason Postecoglu and Maddison looked despondent today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 If we win our next two and they those theirs then the pressure is very much on. Having said that, despite their tough schedule 20p is probably too much. Anything can happen in football though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) If it wasn't for the injuries this season, I have no doubt we'd be in the top four again. Edited April 13 by The Prophet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
