Tottenham lost to Brighton, Arsenal are losing at Southampton at half-time, while we're leading 2-1 against Norwich.

Not a jinx.

Still a lot of games to play and that includes against Liverpool and arsenal them selves. Does put us back in the race though going of todays results so far, feel like we’ve lost out on so many points though, should of beat Leicester and Everton which would of put us 4th now.

It *could* happen but I doubt it, our run in is brutal.

You can count on Spurs and Arsenal to choke, but sadly you can count on us too.

Deepthroating information to Howard Nurse.
To be honest looking at our fixtures I’d be amazed if we win another game. We are and have been pathetic off the ball all season. And pathetic is putting it mildly. Anyone can create space against us.

Conceding a bunch of chances to Norwich!

And play Liverpool and Arsenal away next. Hmm.

Will need some incredible bottling from the north London pair.

And then you wake up and remember we still have to play at Liverpool/Arsenal and Chelsea at home.

We'll drop points today and get smashed 8-0 by Liverpool.

United minus the Glazers
I expect Arsenal to get all 3 points in the second half.
4th is near impossible given our final run of fixtures. Liverpool will dish us up a proper thrashing

Believe, just believe, guys.

And don't even try to think that a thread on a message board can actually jinx anything :)

If we finish 4th with our run in we should question where was that commitment all season.

if arsenal drop points today and we win, there will be "New Hope". This highly likely scenario will make the next two away matches intense.

They should scrap 4th this year. All 3 teams are crap, it’s should be an automatic bye to the Europa last 32

We are struggling against Norwich, home, at OT. They are cutting through us like a hot knife in a block of danish butter.

No chance. We're managing to bundle ahead against a truly awful Norwich side, with far harder games to come. Today will be the final groan of an animal drowning in its own shit

I too am giddy at going in at half time a goal up against Norwich. Let’s, in fact, do this to ourselves while we can. It’s only Liverpool next.

:lol: Even if we don't get ripped apart we certainly won't dent their title charge. We don't do such things. Last season we aided them in getting 4th.

4th place seems to be the battle of the chokers :lol:
Same as every season then

Cant remember the last time the team who finished 4th did it with any conviction

Arsenal are yet to play against all three clubs from 4-7 places, and for each of those teams it's only Arsenal.

Both Uniteds have two games against teams from top three, with Tottenham and Arsenal only one.

It's still all in Arsenal's hand, given their fixture list.

Considering how poor all 3 teams currently performing, I would rather bet on West Ham

You say that but Arsenal should have won as expected today. They lost. They also lost to Brighton. Totally in our hands.

We got to play them next week and they got Chelsea midweek. We could well be fourth by the end of the season
