CVByrne Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Shame this is happening on back of such a high yesterday and renewed hope. Likely we could have nothing to play for other than securing 8th place come Brighton in 2 weeks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MNVillan Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Need to take all 6 remaining points to have any hope at 7th, imo. Not looking likely at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KMitch Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Another horribly refereed game. No idea how the foul by McAllister on the Arsenal defender wasn’t caught by VAR before their goal and an absolute stonewall peno for Arsenal wasn’t awarded later.

Lose at Liverpool and Spurs will only need to win a maximum of 1 of their 2 games to finish above us. Depends, if they lose one and win one and we lose to Liverpool but beat Brighton and the overall GD is 3 then we finish above them, very unlikely as that seems that we get 3 GD back in that scenario Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hank Scorpio Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 So much was put on the assumption arsenal would win today. That's Europe done now, spurs will finish 7th. We lose on Saturday it's inevitable sadly. VAR wins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That dodgy Kane penalty could be key to 7th place after all between us and Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Hope is Brentford can get a point off Spurs or it's over. Unless we can get something from Liverpool. Maybe Spurs don't want Conference League and won't be up for it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlobalVillan Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) Nothing has changed. We were never going to finish above Brighton, who I suspect would finish at least 5 points above us, maybe more. Thats 2 of the 4 games they were definitely gonna lose and they have won them both. I've genuinely not been interested in their results as its been between us and Spurs for 7th for a few weeks now. We now find ourselves in the position that even if we win both of our final games, we may still finish 8th.

Oh I totally agree it’s incredibly unlikely, that’s why I’m more peeved at the Kane penalty as our GD would’ve been the same just they would’ve been above us on GF. At least then a +1 GD is much more likely over the next two games although still unlikely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa87 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 To come so close! So frustrating, but we have been severely hampered by Gerrard. Emery worked wonders and we will definitely be knocking on the door of top 6 next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) When was the last time someone finished 8th with 60 + points. Scrub that who was the last team in premier league to reach 60 points and not qualify for europe in any way? Just wish one season where we're actually pretty decent we didn't have to case an abnormally high points total to finish in one of the lower european places. Last season Man. United finished 6th on 58 points (and they chucked the season in around March). West Ham finished 7th on 56 points.

Villarocker Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 It will be difficult for us get 3 more points, 1 might do it though. I can't see Spurs getting anything else this season. Our main challengers might be Brentford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick76 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 What’s the bet we beat Liverpool, Brentford beat Spurs, we all get excited for the final game and the we lose to Brighton and Spurs do enough against Leeds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
