Now sure they might have nothing to play for (I hope they do), but I still can't see us beating them.

How so?

You don't watch, you don't care about making up the numbers in the CL and dont seem fussed about finishing above Spurs.

So how exactly was it a disaster for 'us'?

When we needed to get a result against the gypos - LOST 2-0
When we needed to get a result against the chavs - LOST 2-1
When we needed to get a results against the scum - LOST 2-1
When we needed to get a result against the toffees - DREW 0-0

1 points from 12 in the big games at the business end of the season. Our team has no bottle and the board has sold the bottle bank. We don't deserve a CL spot because we're easily the worst team in the top 5. The gutless loss of points at home against Everton was a scandal. Some have said it was a good result, I don't see it. It was a vital match we absolutely had to get 3 points from. We failed, just as we have failed in every single big game over the last few seasons.

Next week we rely entirely on Utd not turning up because there's nothing in our team that can produce a result on our own merit. Plus Wenger will field a shit team and leave that team on the pitch for 68 minutes. For a brief moment we had our fate in our own hands. That was a huge disadvantage because we never perform when that's the case. Even yesterday when Fulham went down to ten you could see the performance drop. What an awful team we have here, the worst in decades.

But I still think we'll somehow fluke 4th. One of our opponents will screw up and we'll stumble over the line by default. I say this because the only thing we could get from such a dreadful non-event of a season would be realisation from the vampires that run the club that at least a little investment is required. Finish 4th and they'll have an excuse to ignore the fact. And we'll end up with nothing except anticipation of a pointless re-run in 2013/14.

Agree wholeheartedly with everything you say here NQ. It's all a real mess now at the club, all of our own making. Maybe Kroenke, Gazdick, Wenger & the players deserve this but surely not the fans.

Either way can't see anything changing, top 4 or not.

It's going to go down to the last game of the season IMHO. All 3 of us (Chavs, Spuds & us) will be involved.

Worryingly I don't think we can afford to lose anymore games, I think the absolute bare minimum we need is 7 points and that will be touch and go. Ideally we should be looking at 10 out of the remaining 12 points available.

We'll probably be in 5th by the time we face United, but at least if we lose that, we know that 6 points from QPR and Wigan (which shouldn't be a huge ask realistically) will put us where we need to be going in to the final day.

It's in our hands, just.
