    Very back of fag packet predictions, but I think we need 16 points for 4th. 71 points should be enough. 

    If England gets top 5 for CL, then it'll be a bit lower, but can we bank on that?

    Guess we'll find out a lot more on this after the next round of CL/EL/UCL in the next couple of weeks.

    Would be nice to be able to go all out for the UCL knowing that the league is almost done and dusted. Imagine a trophy and CL qualification in one season!

  2. Relegation would be a disaster for them now because this summer is the first window in ages where they will actually be able to spend a bit of money. Having to spend that on players to get them out of League One could set them back years on and off the pitch unless they get lucky like Ipswich and build a team that can challenge both leagues.

    If we don't sort out the defensive issues we could easily see us lose quite a few more games. Watkins scorching form is keeping us scoring more than the opposition. 

    4 wins and 3 draws should be enough for guaranteed top 5. That gets us 70 points 

    If United lose today that means they need to win 9 or remaining 11 to get to 71 points 

    Season's over mate

  4. He is so, so lucky he has a manager like Emery to have transformed him like this. He's gone from a frustrating player to one of the best strikers in the world in the space of a year. Our manager is a total genius.

    If it was the other way around Klopp would be crying for a replay now 🤣

    That game actually has a case for being replayed. It was literally the last passage of the game. Forest have a corner, it's cleared to a Forest player, game is stopped 5 seconds later with Forest in possession and the ball is given back to a Liverpool(?!) where they go up the other end and score, then the ref blows up after kick off. 

    These refs are either corrupt or not fit for purpose.

  6. That Forest 'error' is crazy and borderline corruption if you look at the team involved and how much time was added on to try and get them the win. 

    I ref at my kids games and even I know that it is a dropped ball for the team in possession after a stoppage like that. How on earth did the ref think giving Liverpool the ball was the right thing to do?!

  7. Having a top class centre forward is such an advantage in this league now and going forward, especially when there's only two of them in the league. 

  8. Flicked it on for the start, Max sails into a lead, turned it on 15 minutes later and he's 30 seconds up.

    To be honest the fix of 2021 killed the sport for me but this shit is hardly tempting me back.

    Keep burying your head in the sand I don't care.

    The finances known are there. They show one clear thing. To comply with bullshit PSR it will happen. Are you ignoring Emery saying as much last week?

    I'll wait until something official is announced regarding FFP/finances rather than bedwetting over things people are putting out on Twitter. 

    Emery said we would have to sell players to buy in the January window, we only got rid of players we didn't want and replaced them with players for the future. For all we know he means we'll be getting rid of the deadwood to buy players this summer too. We're lucky that we don't really need to upgrade on the first 11 this summer so maybe we'll just be replacing squad players this summer too. 

    You're making out that selling one of our big players this summer is a fact. It isn't, only the people running the club know that unless you're a board member and we don't know. 

    We might sell a big player this summer. As I've said a lot on here, I'm worried Luiz has some kind of clause in his contract as he signed it when he wasn't even starting games. Let's just wait and see and not believe everything we read on Twitter.

    We will be selling at least one first team player for sure. Ramsey or Luiz maybe. Anyone who rejects the idea of that is living in some kind of fantasy land.

    It's a matter of who. I guess Ramsey is the easiest to replace overall but we would get more for Luiz, then again Ramsey is pure profit. 

    Either way not going to be fun.

    OK Chris

    Will it be an earlier round of the CL that 5th will be in compared to 4th?

    No, all 36 teams go into a league. There's still seeds to find out who plays each other which I'm guessing we'll be bottom seeds regardless of where we finish. It will guarantee a lot of big teams to face around Europe though which will be exciting!

  12. DOL was right about our fanbase. If I could be bothered I'd trawl through this thread and dig out the people (literally the entire website) that were desperate for him to stay and were following his every move in the buildup to him leaving, in the false hope he'd stay. 

    He left us, he was brilliant for us, he got us £100m and he won the treble. Get over it.
