As it stands we're 3 points behind Leicester and 8 goals worse off. So technically it's also in our hands if they go ahead and lose.
Top 4 Race 19/20 | duffer: "We [Chelsea] are getting 3rd. Despite what the lunatics in here think, Man United are not all that."

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik and Imran hold a long overdue conversation about United's awful league form with 1 win in 7. They discuss a disappointing draw at Bournemouth, a not so disappointing draw against Liverpool and a crushing defeat at Chelsea - Is time nearly over for Erik Ten Hag?
Then in a special second half of the pod, Nik welcomes Natalie ( https://twitter.com/natalie_17) to discuss the fortunes of Manchester United Women as they booked a place in the FA Cup Final after a historic first ever win vs. Chelsea.
Absolutely to be fair I think most of us fancied them today.
Relax. There's still 20 mins left for Leicester to get something out of this and it should've already been 2-2
Leicester have got more dropped points in them. Can't really see them winning games by multiple goals either so think the key for us is to have two or three more scorelines like Sheffield United/Brighton before facing Leicester on the final game of the season.
It's back on like donkey kong.
We’re looking good for it. Leicester will end up dropping out.
Sweet. It’s wide open now.
Just need West Ham to do us a favour now.

Well done Everton, on the ropes for a good 20-30mins, but saw it through excellently.
No-one's expecting anything from West Ham, but if they could even snatch a draw that'll be superb

3 pts and +9 goal difference away from being in top 4. We can do it.
Now that leicester is defeated do we need to be more worried about wolves winning all their remaining games?
Leicester have hit a brick wall
Hope West Ham now get something against Chelsea

Come on Hammers! Moyes, do us a favour please.
Leicester will be very lucky to get into the top four now- Arsenal. Tottenham and Utd will all take points off them! My worry is more Wolves now as they are in great form
Fantastic result for us.
Would cap a perfect couple of days if West Ham can get something from Chelsea. If not, then still very good with this defeat. Leicester look very ordinary, and I can certainly see United being above them by the time we play there. Let's hope we can keep winning and make that fixture irrelevant.
It's on
If it wasnt for wolves I would go as far to say we can afford to even lose a game as i think Leicester will drop more than another 3 points before we face them on the last day
Leicester are still to play Arsenal, Spurs and us. Add that to playing Palace which won't be a walk in the park either. They are in trouble.
Could be an epic last day if the season of us Chelsea, Wolves and Leicester are all in contention! Chelsea v Wolves and Leicester V United
Just have to beat Leicester 5-0 then if it comes down that
I hope to be at least 4 points clear of Leicester come the final day. They are dropping points for fun at the moment so I think that’s possible.
Pretty simple that united wins out they should get top 4. With our remaining fixtures no excuse really minus maybe the last Leicester game
Everton still have more to say in this top 4 battle, they'll be my second team for the remainder of the season. We're still behind on goal difference but I don't think that'll matter ultimately because I think Leicester will keep dropping points.
Also West Ham don't have a chance in hell of getting anything off Chelsea, don't get your hopes up.

I think chelsea are nailed on for third now. Leaves it as a straight shootout between us, wolves and Leicester. Hopefully Chelsea can take something off wolves on the last day.
I think arsenal could get something at wolves next game week. Tails will be in the air now and arteta is starting to get an idea of his best team and who wants to play for him.
Come on Moysie, ya know what to do, win tonight and all will be forgiven.
...oh no it won't!!

They've Palace next who will be looking to bounce back from two straight defeats. Hopefully they don't pick up because they looked a bit better vs Everton especially when Maddison got a bit closer to Vardy.
Wolves are in good form, but their fixtures have been West Ham, Bournemouth and Villa.
They’ve got a tougher run in their next 4.
Arsenal, Sheff Utd, Everton, Burnley
Before finishing against Palace and Chelsea.
Id be very surprised if they don’t drop any points

I think Leicester are done. Worst case scenario is they have to beat us last game of the season, but I doubt it will even come to that.
This is the real title race right here
Yes, they're the real threat.
Massive last two days. Just changed the scope of the race.
This. I completely agree. I don't think they have in them to win against Everton or Burnley. Arsenal are very unpredictable and so are Sheffield United.

Wolves have Arsenal, Everton and Chelsea. They aren't going unbeaten.
Leicester is out, and have said for a while that we're going to overtake them, and maybe Chelsea too.
Love it! - Even though i have a friend who's Leicester fan, and she's really sweet and down to earth, so i feel sorry for her.

Chelsea will win this and tbh they are spot on for 3rd, I can only really see them drop points to Liverpool and there last game is against Wolves and us against Leicester, very tasty, however i hope it doesn't come down to the last game on the day and (purely for my anxiety)
Leicester have Arsenal , Sheffield, Spurs still where I can see them dropping points, our most difficult remaining fixture will be Southhampton i think and West Ham just due to the whole ex man united manager thing and plus West Ham have turned into somewhat of a bogey team for us.

They were saying that about Brighton away. West Ham are much worse than the sum of their parts. Due to being managed by a cnut.
Just based off the first 20 minutes, highly unlikely West ham get something here
