3rd is pretty likely now. Will be 4th should we lose to Newcastle at home and let’s face it that’s more than possible right now.

2nd will take getting 4 points from Liverpool and Newcastle which is extremely unlikely.

Don’t think we’ll be 5th at least thanks to Forest’s defeat the other night.

Agreed though I'd say losing to Newcastle is quite likely as opposed to simply possible atm

That said if we're knocked out of the CL on Weds (not that I'm saying I'd like it to happen obvs), distractions will be gone and the focus back on the league, so who knows

If Bournemouth could do a double against us , then almost certainly Newcastle will beat us 3 times this season.

The Liverpool game is where we can get a point and hopefully Southampton just spreads their legs like they've done all season.

I bet they turn up for that game. Arsenal all over. Chuck the easy points down the drain, then fight for a point against an opponent and 50% of the fans shout, "We're Back!" Works every time.

So, that's half of my prediction right, just waiting for Newcastle to do the rest , unfortunately.

Should make the Newcastle game next week spicy now.

Would quite like to fuck up their CL chances.

Well, in the unlikely event that we hold them and manage a draw, if we beat Southampton, we are guaranteed our annual 2nd place and a summer of gloating from a coach who has little to no shame.

Ha, fair enough , hope you're wrong re Newcastle though I doubt it...

[Mac76]

Because our GD is much better than Newcastle and Citeh's that result really makes a big difference, if we can at least draw v Newcastle second is just possible (though it would be typical to then fail to beat Saints on the last day...)
