If City win the next 3 games. Their game against us will be the title winning match.. soooooo. I didn't rate our chances before..

Our fixtures are horrible.. either top 4 rivals..ones fighting the drop or unpredictable sided.

I long ago chalked off Citeh as a loss

did not see thsi west brom disaster happening

IF we only drop points to Citeh and win out the rest, we have 72 points (Leicester is the hardest other game, then we also have Villa, West Ham and Arse)

I predicted 73 (loss to Citeh and a draw somewhere)

IF we end up on 72 (a monster lift)

and IF pool lose to manure, they cannot catch us

IF spuds (assuming they beat NUFC tomorrow) lose to manure as well, the only way they can catch us (if we have 72) is to win out on all the rest (including sweeping all 9 from Villa, Everton and Leicster)

then it comes down to GD

It makes me sick, but I am all in for manure at this point in those 2 games, IF they lose both we are in seriously fucked up straits

Couldn't catch the west Brom game because I was traveling, but what a horrible result to come across when checking the score.

Anyway,..I said this more than a month ago,...Man City, Man Utd and Liverpool are nailed on to finish in the top 4. It may have looked absurd when Liverpool went on a losing streak at home, but they are well placed to recover.

IMO, Leicester and Spurs are our biggest threats, and we need to look at closing the gap on Leicester. 5 point gap at the moment, but I fancy our chances at closing that gap more than our chances of keeping Liverpool out of the top 4.

Nothing sums up our dominance over Arsenal in the last close to two decades than them still losing ground to us on a weekend we get stuffed at home to West Brom!

If Arsenal win the Europa it should seriously raise the question on whether the winners of that tournament should get Europa going forward.

If that mess end up playing CL football it would be wrong on so many levels.

Mate, we lost to this sack of shit. Not only that, we were outplayed. And we probably won't even beat them at the bridge. 

What does that say about us?

And Steve Bruce done the double over Ancelotti.

As good as they can be for banter head to head records mean shit in the grand scheme of it.

How on earth are Spurs above us now? Just mental the amount of dropped points we received during our " Unbeaten" period. 

We have dropped 11 points since Tuchel took over. On a whole, is that really mental? Only Man City have dropped less during that same period - 3.

When Tuchel took over, we were only 4 points behind Spurs and I don't think we really opened up a big gap on them.

And the fact of the matter is, we left ourselves with little margin for error after that bad winter run under Lampard.

insane sitters NUFC are blowing

SHAMEFUL that spuds will soon be above us

especially as we had a huge lead on them

they have a much weaker squad (only 2 true stars in Kane and Son, plus 2 really good players in Regulon and Ndombélé, then a shedload of meh meh's every where else, plus shit at 3 of the back 4 slots)

and we were on a 15 game unbeaten run'

yet above us they go

🤬

🤬

they are historic bottlers tho and I  am still optimistic we will eventually make it into CL somehow.

Newcastle should be instantly relageted for this performance tho.

The frustrating thing is given how dominant we have been in all those big games vs quality opposition how needlessly we shat away the points vs Southamtpon, leeds, ManUre and WestBrom. In  a way we are just as frustrating under TT as before

Don't think Spurs will be top 4..do think Liverpool will jump us to it though. Saying that they're shite at home but..that can change and all. Just take each game as it comes.

Shame our goal difference is gone a bit.. not that had a huge one to start with
