Amazing how many games this "europe chasing" bunch have to play against each other. 4 of our last 5 games is against the teams immediately around us, and the other game is Wolves. green is games to be played. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Wasn't pretty but we're 5th. Now there's pressure on Liverpool and especially Brighton to keep up. If Brighton don't beat Forest then they need to win one of their harder spare games and/or beat us on the final day so a bit of pressure tomorrow and will be interesting how they react after the SF loss. Think West Ham can hold Liverpool aswell with their forwards in form but Liverpool's game in hand is home to Fulham so on tonight's evidence they'll cruise to a 2 or 3 nil win there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sulberto21 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 Newcastle have won 6 out of 7 recently and man yoo 6 out of 10 and had 3 wins since the Liverpool mauling. A shame both of them are in decent enough form in the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beating Spurs and Brighton is a must. Another win on top of that would be lovely. I think another 7 points could be enough if we win the six pointers against those two in particular.

Only max 15 pts available from 5 games left. 11 would be 3 wins 2 draws from 5 I know. I meant including six points from Man United and wolves. It would still mean two of our rivals have taken points off us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul514 Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 People are working out permitations and yes it will be excellent if Brighton don’t win against Forrest but really it’s all one game at a time until the last three games. There is way too many variables, i said I think we will need 12 more points before today and that hasn’t changed in my mind, I still think we have to beat wolves and then win the right two matches out of the other 4. I say the right two matches as we don’t know what other teams results will be 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s also a certain comfort in knowing our rivals have all these extra games to play, some against each other. Brighton have to play all of the top four.

KMitch Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 I think Wolves will be our toughest game in this run in... They're starting to click right now and will absolutely be up for it when we come to visit. I'd be over the moon with a point at Old Trafford and a point at Molineux.

AshVilla Posted April 25, 2023 Share Posted April 25, 2023 (edited) I think we beat United. Playing at Old Trafford will play right into our hands, they will have to come at us and that's when were at our best. We also nearly done them over in the cup with Lolsen in nets and we have vastly improved since then. Edited April 25, 2023 by AshVilla 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd take a loss at Wolves to beat Man United. We'd be a point better off for one, and a first double over them since 1930. Wolves aren't a rival. Not as far as I'm concerned anyway. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJBOB Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 No easy matches going forward. United away is very difficult. Only lost two all season I think? And ETH has them playing decently now. Wolves away is going to make me sick. Spurs at home with a new manager bounce? Liverpool away will be incredibly tough and a team we don’t match up well against. And of course Brighton home to decide Europe. Getting an ulcer just thinking about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
