We’ve already made top 4...Couldn’t give a feck. We’re gonna scrape over the line and drag ourselves to a CL finish kicking and screaming once again.
CheersA week and a half ago, Wednesday.
What already have finished too far behind City.This should be the game where we should be cementing 2nd place and also we don't want to finish too far behind city.
Enjoy!My brother and I have tickets absolutely cannot wait for this back in the stadium 1st time for me since Watford last February
Confirming CL with 4 matches to play isn't that. We clinched CL with the win of Villa.We’re gonna scrape over the line and drag ourselves to a CL finish kicking and screaming once again.
Fulham will be playing for pride. As a result they'll probably be dangerous.
Yes but it needs to be a ‘good’ second place don’t you get it? Not just any old second place!What already have finished too far behind City.
They have as much goal scoring prowess as me with both legs broken and blinded in one eyeThey looked very dangerous today getting done by Southampton 3-1
Yeah even that boat has gone, it's not a good second place regardless of how results for the remaining gamesYes but it needs to be a ‘good’ second place don’t you get it? Not just any old second place!
That's roughly about as strong a Sheffield United, who beat us 1-2 at Old Trafford.They have as much goal scoring prowess as me with both legs broken and blinded in one eye
The Blades were in with a tiny chance of staying up back then. Fulham are doneThat's roughly about as strong a Sheffield United, who beat us 1-2 at Old Trafford.
This is a game we could easily drop points in if we take our eyes off the ball.
When we were already in free fall having been trashed by Everton. I don’t believe we even qualified for UCL, did we?I still remember when relegated Cardiff came to OT on the final day
The we only finished x points behind the champions trophy is a big oneThis should be the game where we should be cementing 2nd place and also we don't want to finish too far behind city.
You’re quite the optimist in general I’d say , you are mentioning Fulham like they’re world class or something . We will easily beat these and even a draw will guarantee us 2nd. I can’t see Leicester beating ChelseaI've been wanting the likes of Leicester and Chelsea to lose, to help us guarantee 2nd before these last two matches, rather than win to help hinder Liverpool. And, despite the 'mocking certainty' of others on here, it's a damn good job they did lose some of those as, even so, 2nd isn't a certainty and 3rd only is because they play each other and can't both win.
We now have to take this game serious if 2nd place is a priority - which I think it is for Ole - as the Wolves game is a likely draw or defeat as it simply has to be a similar team selection to the Leicester match with everyone rested for a final in Poland just 3 days later.
This is why the rearranged Liverpool game wasn't just about 'one match'. It made all 3 games in 5 days less likely to win and in turn, depending on those results and on Chelsea and Leicester results, put more importance on the final two games which could, otherwise and ideally, have been meaningless.
Form and rhythm isn't something you just turn on and off at will, so we don't want to go into the final on the back of 4 disappointing results and missing out on 2nd place. Nor do we want to have to secure 2nd place by risking players v Wolves. So, in that respect, it's important to win this game.
We shouldn't risk anyone still struggling after the crazy schedule, but should otherwise go with as strong a line up that's available and make sure of 2nd place and then go very weak v Wolves.
Thanks manWin this for people like @Gavinb33 and his brother.
I really don't understand cheap and silly comments like this.You’re quite the optimist in general I’d say , you are mentioning Fulham like they’re world class or something . We will easily beat these and even a draw will guarantee us 2nd. I can’t see Leicester beating Chelsea
You mean the match where we dominated and had a good goal disallowed and they had a goal that should have been disallowed which was confirmed by a referee's report?That's roughly about as strong a Sheffield United, who beat us 1-2 at Old Trafford
They did it in the long distant past that is yesterday.I can’t see Leicester beating Chelsea
Correct which is why they will beat them TuesdayThey did it in the long distant past that is yesterday.
mental isn't it, make us play 3 PL games across 5 days and then give us a weekend offFeels weird having this break between fixtures.
Being the second best team in the league is an achievement I’m pretty sure Ole and the players would take. Seeing how we were written off at the start of the season and Chelsea, Pool and City were going to fight it out for the top 3 spots, whilst it was us, Leicester, Spurs etc all going to battle for 4th.The we only finished x points behind the champions trophy is a big one
