Look at the fucking state of this United side and crowd.

We somehow get away with another slip up & actually extend the gap to 6 points.

 

How much longer is luck going to shine on Lamps?

Who has pushed on at Utd since Sir Alex left?

As someone previously pointed out, the club has been in a dire state for an age now.

Yeah but Martial was hyped as one of the best young talents around but he now looks just like your average footballer.

A win for City next week and a draw for United and Wolves would be great.

I don't think Wolves will be able to cope on two fronts if they go far into the Europa League. They have a small squad.

They were hyping him on very little, though. It isn't anything new when a teenager shows a bit of promise.

Scores his first goal for Utd and he's immediately being compared to Henry. Come on!

Shame we play them in a few weeks..  

The if only are annoying but better then what if..if they'd won it's been 3 point gap..if we had won...

This is why I laugh when people say top four is done after dropped points.

For all our flaws six points clear of teams incapable of putting any real momentum together isn't to be sniffed at.

If so a Wolves win just don't let United win, I think we can get Sancho even with Europa League but if United get that CL spot while we don't we're fucked.

One side will kick on eventually and it won't be us with a CF signing at the very least.

Even IF United get CL, I don't think they will get Sancho if we go after him. The Chelsea factor might be too strong to resist for Sancho.

Only 10 points between us in fourth and the Geordies in 14th utter dross in the PL bar the top two no getting away from it.

[Laylabelle 9,407]

We're all as bad as each other. The gap between 1st and 4th is huge..even 1st and 2nd.

See what happens. We have such a lethal run..one against United. Saying that Newcastle looked like a win so hard to predict

It might be beneficial if we get out of the CL early (not that we'll beat Bayern over two legs anyway).

Which one is capable of doing so?

[ZaynChelsea 423]

One of the weakest Premier Leagues ever.

I personally think the tie isn't a foregone conclusion. They can be got at, but more will depend on what state we're in when it comes around.

Spurs tbh. If William Jose can fill Kane's void temporarily, what's stopping them?

Vardy did his hammy may be out versus us
