SU was their easiest game.

Spurs was always the danger game as if they win that game and we lose against Liverpool they are sitting pretty.

Chin up, now Leicester face the real test

LOL

How many people thought they wouldn't beat Sheffield United today but they ended up doing so super comfortably? Sheffield United were horrendous, granted, but Leicester's application on the game was such a stark contrast to what we did at the weekend.

Not even gonna bother watching Man United. Palace are going to get trashed. Need the special one and a special park the bus performance now.

Anything can happen. United's front 4 have yet to be rested this entire post lockdown.

It really shouldn't have come down to this but we've allowed it to. It's a fucking joke!

You also have to say that we are quite lucky to still be in with a shout at this point after losing soo many games. Depends if you're a glass half empty or a glass half full kind of guy.

just so it is not all completely doom

even if lose to the dippers

but beat Wolves

if Leicester lose to Spuds they cannot catch us

the same for Manure if they lose one of their 3 games (probably will be Leicester if they are to lose, and Leicester will have Chilwell and Maddison back for that game)

finally, 

IF we beat wolves

and if Manure win the next 2, by small amounts

and Leicester beat them

Leicester probably (even if they lose to Spuds in a close game, no more than a 2 goal loss) knocks Manure out of the CL on GD as they up 5 now, lets say they lose to spuds by 2, manure win their next two by a total of plus 4 (we will know much more after this Palace game), then  Manure goes into the final game +1, so if Leicester win, even by one goal, they go over Manure on GD

I don't think Palace cares anymore. They left us too much space when we played them. I've never seen them so open before. Rashford, Martial and co will feast on that.

Yes, we have gotten lucky with the results of late but the point is, we have been sitting in the Top 4, somewhat comfortably, all season but have to now scramble for a Top 4 finish. Just purely from our perspective, we have dropped so many stupid points this season and it's a joke! Losing to Bournemouth, Newcastle, West Ham (twice!), Everton, Southampton. Blowing away leads against Sheffield United, 10-man Arsenal! If we had picked up even half of the points from those games, we would have been home and dry by now.

yup, me neither. the argument was, in a big team he will get more chances lol. a player who is such a poor finisher wont score more of 100 chances than of 10

I'll hold my hand up and remind you that I really wanted him. Thank fuck our club were smart enough to shy away. He has been shocking this season. Think a big part of that is because he has been angry that a big move didn't come off, but still.

Massive bullet dodged.

No disrespect to Zaha but he is a big fish in a small pond. Excluding us, if the biggest clubs you have been linked with is Arsenal and Spurs, then that is saying a lot. He turns 28 later this year, he should be playing at his peak, should be consistent but isn't.
