Kanji Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Im still amazed we’re in fighting chance of European football this season. Just need City to win the bloody FA cup and 6th or 7th gets us into Europe. Wow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geogaddi Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 (edited) I know you are always going to drop points but its madness that we only got two points from Forest , Luton and Everton at home , as well as losing at Everton and Luton, all three of them are terrible , even winning two of them games would mean we would pretty much have 6th guaranteed.

Decky Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Win during the week and top 7 should be locked in you’d have thought. Two games in hand on West Ham at the minute and Chelsea have terrible fixtures. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Hopefully we have turned a corner with the last couple of results, but I'm more worried about our own consistency than I am the fixtures and results of the clubs around us. We've been canny wank in games you'd expect us to win this season Have a feeling we'll finish 7th Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn it, can't even enjoy a potential Cov giant killing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although if they finished 7th you’d like to think we’d be 6th anyway so it wouldn’t matter, but 6th would be Conference League. City winning it makes 6th Europa League and 7th Conference.

Aye, forgot to say, in the event of them finishing 6th and us 7th. Suppose IF Cov make then we'll know who we need/want to win the final when it comes around.

Keegans Export Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Man City win FA Cup 5th & 6th = Europa League 7th = Conference League Man Utd win FA Cup (and finish 6th) 5th = Europa League (6th = Man Utd/Europa League) 7th = Conference League Man Utd win FA Cup (and finish 7th) 5th = Europa League 6th = Conference League (7th = Man Utd/Europa League) Man Utd win FA Cup (and finish 8th or lower) 5th = Europa League 6th = Conference League 7th = No European qualification (8th+ = Man Utd/Europa League) That's right isn't it?

Cronky Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 I think we’re in for a good run-in. It’s probably been mentioned before but this Gordon-Isak-Barnes attack has parallels with the Salah-Firmino-Mane trio that did so well for Liverpool. Plenty of pace and trickery.

We simply need City to win the FA Cup to leave the league fully up in play for us to earn Europa league in 6th. If Man United win the Cup then we just HAVE to finish 7th at minimum.

The College Dropout Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 If we finish top 7 and above Chelsea/West ham etc. we'll qualify for Europe. The FA Cup final is after the final league games right? Finishing 6th and having to wait til after the FA Cup final to find out what comp we'll be in would suck. Especially if Man U win it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jack j Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 (edited) Done One of them daft predictors got Chelsea on 58 points. Man u on 60 after 37 games excluding our game v them Us on 60 after 37 excluding our game v mancs Brighton and West ham out the picture. Point at Old Trafford do us for 6th Edited April 22 by jack j Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were discussing it on Talksport over weekend and said it was a shame the final wasn't the last game anymore. I've just googled it and it is, played on the 25th May. So it's going to, potentially, be your scenario. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
