Look at Chelsea fixtures and also look at Leicester fixture. Compare them to us. You made too early judgment.
We won't win every game. After City Chelsea's fixtures are no more difficult than ours. Liverpool will be putting out a youth team by the time they play them.

True. I think it’s a fight between us & Wolves for 5th & it’ll be really tight
I wouldn't put money on either team to get 5th. Will be very tight and I don't have faith in us not dropping more points even if the fixtures look more favourable.

Hopefully we can win the Europa.

You feel Villa probably need get something here given their run in. Think they are down tbh.

Villa should have sacked Dean Smith, their “style” of football is woeful and a ton of money has been spent. Keep seeing Mings looking up and just punting hopefully up the field.

They lost some key loans after coming up but they have the players and have spent the money to try and play better football than they do.

It’s impossible for them to lose 2 games. I would love too but you need some psychological effect in those stuff and it would have been good to see them lose today, there are only a few games left, we need them to mentally collapse.
Impossible?

I know Liverpool probably will go easy on Chelsea but Chelsea still has City & Wolves other than Liverpool. While Leicester still has Spurs, Everton, Arsenal & us.

Ngolo didn't mean it. He's a nice lad ref. Don't book him.

Remember when Herrera got sent off because the referee banned hazard from being fouled?

What’s that 5 fouls on grealish?

Our toughest ones are Leicester & Southampton, and Leicester one is obviously a must win game, I think if we can get 7 out of 8 wins we should be able to secure it. If we can't even get those 7 wins then we might should just forget about signing Sancho & let Pogba go because they have right things to think we are mediocre.

Leicester still has Spurs, Everton, Arsenal & also us.

Liverpool will still be trying for the points record potentially.

Don’t like the look of that Liverpool team might cash in my bet now, Keita, minamino and Milner do not fill me with confidence..

What do you mean after City? From now they have 3 of the top 5 left to play. Its by far harder than our run in.
Especially if they lose v City and we are 2 pts behind them?

Chelsea can literally drop points to any team, football is not played on paper.

The home/away factor is also non existent, and fitness and sharpness is also not there yet. The games have all looked fairly dull so far, slower paced and less energetic. Villa are one of the worst teams, so using them as a example is not a good choice. Chelsea will have much greater tests later.

Nothing is certain in these weird times.

Kante booked! :eek: Was anyone keeping count of what the magic number of fouls is for Kante to get booked?

Points never come as easy as they look on paper. 7 wins out of 8 is highly unlikely to happen. If Leicester were closer i'd give us a good chance of catching them, i think we'll finish closer to them than Chelsea.

I wouldn't worry, Everton found a way to roll over and have their tummies tickled when Liverpool put schoolboys out.

Chelsea were never dropping points here. They're still very catchable.
Yeah I expected them to win this anyway. They have some hard fixtures coming up so as long as we don't feck it up we'll catch them.

5th could be enough anyway if the City ban is upheld and of course we have the EL but can't bank on that.

I think you're over estimating the end of season Liverpool game. The first XI will have probably started their summer holidays.

This is PL. You can lose points everywhere. We lost 8 points lead in season 2012. Chelsea can lose points in nearly every game left. But so do we of course

Agreed. That lineup makes no sense to me. Klopp having a laugh with us all again
