It is great to see a gap between us and them at last. As long as they were close or sometimes above, it was too stressful lol. This is the pillow we need.

Liverpool are the big concern, as poor as they've been they can quite easily shit out a run us 10/11 style.

Moyes and genuine expectations just don't mesh, as soon as WHU started getting seriously talked about for top 4 it was game over.

People were giving Wham a chance because of their easier fixtures. They are effectively 7 points behind us now, so its safe to say they wont catch us.

Leicester are better away so it wouldn't surprise me if they get a draw or even a win at Utd. However, if they lose and we beat the Arse, then we'll only need a point against them for top four.

Would be a big help to go into the Villa game being able to rest a lot of players.

Not sure why anyone is/was worried about West Ham.

It's been obvious for weeks they don't have the bollox to see this through. 

cuz of their weak ass last 3 games, and I was not worried about them v us, I want them to knock out pool and Leicester from the CL

West Ham misses the fuck out of Rice

his absence ties up Soucek, so Soucek cannot wander all over and cause chaos

That Arse XI is shocking, my word. 
 

As for West Ham now, they still have 3 piss easy fixtures remaining. If things go disastrously for us and Leicester they still have a slim shot if they win all 3.

[OneMoSalah 8,810]

We have to beat this Arsenal team.

Leno, Saka, Tierney, Gabriel, Partey, Smith-Rowe, Aubamayang (has been shite this season) are really their only really good players plus Martinelli is promising.

They’ve struggled and have a soft mentality. Whilst they have other decent/reasonable players the likes of Chambers, Holding, Nkeitah, Elneny, Ceballos, Cedric, Pepe aren’t good enough or consistent enough, as neither are they as a group.

Great results for us Leicester might make CL and pay us for Abraham, Milan making CL and paying for Tomori and Napoli making CL and paying for Bakayoko.

it doesn't take a miracle for WH to sneak in

win v 3 shit teams so at 67

Leicester lose to us and manure most they can get then is 66

pool lose to manure most they can get then is 66

they are 4th, we are 3rd (67 or more) not matter what (barring a 10 nil loss or so)

pool and Leicester (if those 3 losses occur, 2 for Leicester, one for pool) can only get to 66 points max

This was a pretty good weekend for us, all results. The thing I like best is we are making it happen, the other results are a bonus.

glorious weekend all things considered. Westham lost, Leicester lost, we won, ManUre keep the pressure on city and stay motivated for their games vs leicester and pool. I can totally see us already securing top 4 at the Emirates in midweek.

Moreover,as  I do not support any other club, I am usually rooting for the underdogs in the smaller leagues. Lille and Atletico are about to break the wheel in their leagues. Can't stand Real and PSG at all so quite happy they probably win fuck all this season. Same goes for the mafiosi at Juve.

Win vs Arsenal (up to 67 points) and job done I think

West Ham cannot catch and Liverpool will need 4 out of 4 to catch

WBA scored 25% of their goals this season against us.

I dont know which one is more horrible, us getting spanked by 8 goals or them scoring as rarely as possible

[Blues Forever 1,232]

Their managers shortlist are: Martinez, Parker, Potter, Rodgers, Inzaghi, Conte, Sarri, Gasperini, and Allegri.
