How can you suggest they don't want to win? It's crazy. In the last two games Bournemouth came from behind and beat Leicester and gave Man City a good game.

Popular Post useless Posted July 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2020 West Ham and Watford draw then all it would take is for us to get a surprise win v Arsenal and Bournemouth to win their game and suddenly they'd both be in danger of going down on the last of the season, it would even need us to beat Arsenal, if we got a draw then either one of them would be catchable if they lose their games to Man City and Man Utd. They will both want to win tonight for the simple reason that it would virtually guarantee them safety. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 Definitely watching the game tonight - if anything to eek out the last of the season while we're still in the league - BUT we need a decisive win either way - a draw would be bad news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post omariqy Posted July 17, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2020 You still have to retain some hope otherwise there is no point in being a fan. However, so many things have to go for us that it is highly unlikely. The best case scenario for us in the coming days - West Ham win by at least 2 clear goals today - Arsenal either win in the cup or take it to extra time - Saints get at least a draw on Sunday - Man City beat Watford by 3 clear goals This would mean the table would look like the following before we play Arsenal. 17 Watford FC 37 8 10 19 35:60 -26 34 18 AFC Bournemouth 37 8 8 21 38:63 -25 32 19 Aston Villa 36 8 7 21 39:66 -27 31 20 Norwich City 36 5 6 25 26:68 -42 21 We then again have a cup final game and mentality going into the Arsenal game. A win could put you in a place where you probably only really need to match Watford's result to stay up. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cam all believe but even when we were playing better WITH WES HEATON AND MCGINN we still lost with them having ten men! We are playing worse. a point is enough for both of them i think as we incapable of winning and seeing out a game espically against the better sides. Its a little gamble for them nothing more.

You conveniently dropped your comments about Bournemouth I see. I'm sorry, but you're being really silly. And as for us we're not actually playing that badly. We just lack quality up front.

Its the goal difference thats gonna kill us though so a point doesnt really help. If only we held on. The players look like they have accepted their fate at the end of the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.Bear Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 We should be hoping, praying for this. Watford beat West Ham. We at least draw with Arsenal, West Ham lose. Beat West Ham on the final day to leapfrog them. And obviously hope Bournemouth lose to Soton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
