My point is that people in here tend to massively overreact to things.

tbh, i would guess every single football forum is the same?

In terms of UEFA coefficient is it worked out on a by game basis, or as a result of the tie? I’m guessing if German sides get knocked out and English teams go through then England can still add to the total but Germany can’t? Is that how it works?

game basis, points for a win, draw etc.

if all german sides are knocked out, they cant get any more points.

if we still have clubs in europe, we can add points via results.

think of arsenal vs bayern as a 6 pointer.....cus if they can knock bayern out, and pick up points from both legs (win/draw etc), then that would be super dupa.

And yet, still a 9-point gap and 17 goal difference over them. But please continue.

isnt it an 11 point gap?

they way he took the ball, turned, moved, shot, scored.

just pure quality.

if he can develop his wider game to suit Emery, he will be an absolute diamond.

Is there a reason you’re asking me?

yeah, i quoted the wrong person like a noob.

he speaks sense tbh, talking about that we concede silly goals when we should have killed it off, that we seem to relax when we go 2-0 up, and he questioned whether we have the game intelligence and play smart, to manage games at times.

I would be interested but I have zero intent in actually going through the number of times we’ve pissed away a two goal lead.

Today probably doesn’t even break the top ten since I’ve been following them. At least we ended up coming back ourselves and earning a point.

It says something that when I try and list the number of times we’ve come back from two goals down, I’m stuck on that Arsenal game with the falling Santa. Whereas there are plenty of examples the other way around.

any links to watkins comments?, vid?

Fortunately even 1ppg for the rest of the season should be enough for 5th. And I doubt we’ll maintain that poor form

yeah, 1 PPG would prob be enough tbh, lucky for us.

But the drop in form is concerning.

before anyone loses their mind, im not saying we wont get 5th, but the data for our recent performances is really poor, and its been on a downward trajectory for a while tbh.

• Over the last 5 games, we have averaged 1PPG.
• Over the last 10 games, we have averaged 1.7 PPG.
• Over the last 15 games we have averaged 1.5 PPG.
• That is a big drop off from the first 20 games, which was consistently 1.8 to 2.2 PPG on avg.

You just need to look at this, to see how our form has slowly dropped off, and its dropped in a steady, consistent way.

Maybe we are just tired and finding it hard to drag ourselves over the line, dunno.

There will be some interest in this lad in the Summer. He’s top, top class. He’d suit someone like City perfectly. Would cost a small fortune and doubt we’d sell.

will be an interesting summer, i do wonder that if someone offered 100m for one of our key players, i would imagine we would sell one of them.

Funny really, i never thought i would say that i could imagine more than one of our players being worth 75m+ lol.....what a world.

then again, depends on if this spending tax comes in (in place of FFP), in that scenario, we wouldnt need to sell at all.

Manure aren't even going to win 4 of last 8. They done mate.

i 100% hope ur right!

4 minutes ago, Kiwivillan said:

That's illogical. You're saying Manure are going to win 4 of last 8 and turnaround 18pts GD and we'll lose every game or some variant of results as ridiculous as that

its illogical to say it not over until its over?

thats about as logical as it gets.

Statistically i agree, its highly unlikely now, but it isnt over, until it is.

We just need to do our business and it will be done soon, hopefully.

Surely that’s top 5 confirmed?

the optimist in me says yes, but the pessimist in me says we need to keep doing our job, and just get as many points as we can.

its isnt over till its over, and the better we do, the sooner its over.

Manure need to average 1.4 PPG just to catch our current total of 59 points now.

thats got to be one of the biggest collapses in recent memory.

Posh Cockney word that.... Lav a tory.  '

is that like Hug-a-Hoodie?

we are down to 1.6 PPG over the last 15 games, with 1.4PPG over the last 5 games.

i guess we will just have to hope we can take it over the line.

@tomav84 I was thinking the same thing. A squad illness would explain a lot. And if the option is name noone or a player that's got the shits on the bench then the latter will win. Imodium then up and hope they last 45 minutes if needed at half time.

lets hope they dont pick up the Dulcolax from the shelf opposite by mistake.

Not quite what I meant, Unai

you should start betting on stuff, seems you have the ability to get filthy rich.

tonight is the night i become a millionaire.

Zaniolo & Rogers starting, house 100% remortgaged, cars refinanced, secured money against the kids, all to place a bet on them both getting cards tonight.

You guys will all have invites to my foreign Villa in the sun, for a party, when i get my cha ching.

So he doing good or bad?

very good.

so, 0 wins, 6 draws, 7 losses in the last 13 PL games.

0.46 PPG in that time.
