Brentford, Fulham and Manchester United all beatable We can get 9 points in the space on 8 days again. 62 Points going into the last 4 games. I’d have us drawing against Utd and beating Brentford and Fulham. Brentford’s the banana skin though as they’re a good side, especially if Mbeumo and Toney have a decent game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desensitized43 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Been trying to keep a lid on my expectations. A few months ago I was excited for next season to see what Don Unai could do with a full summer window and backing behind him but to be in contention for Europe at this stage was unthinkable. I still think Champions League is beyond us right now given the fixtures we have to come but we'll definitely finish top half now which was my expectation going into the season under Stevie 'the fraud' so I can't be too unhappy about how the seasons turned out regardless of what happens now. All that being said, if we can go to Brentford and win I might start to let myself get swept up in the excitement! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adman Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Unais record in cup competitions is phenomenal. This run-in feels like a cup run. Just saying that I think we'll win all our remaining games that's all. And I know i said I thought we'd lose the next two but I didn't mean it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) VERY VERY unlikely but just imagine if we do manage 3 wins in the next week. 8 wins in a row and sitting on 59 points with 4 games to go.

PieFacE Posted April 21, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted April 21, 2023 Just don't see 8 wins in a row. Not saying it's not possible but I feel we're due a bit of bad luck like a shit VAR decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm already there and dreaming. Brentford will be a much tougher game than Utd. Absolutely no doubt. If we beat Brentford, it's on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we beat Brentford, it's on. You just know we won't beat United. Even if we batter them, VAR won't allow it. No chance they will let us do the double over them in the league and risk their chances of top 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 I think if we play as we did against the Geordies we can beat Brentford, even with their decent home form. As for Utd, Watkins will give Maguire a decent game, it’s the Rashford/Young match up that would concern me more than anything else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maqroll Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I hope Spurs win tomorrow because it will keep Newcastle within our reach. I'm less concerned about Spurs, AND we play Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 4th is impossible. We need the jawdies to beat Spurs. Liverpool will be up there so our fight is with Spurs. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 We need three wins in six for Europa League I think. Massive point today, not an easy place to go even if we played poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
