I'd be more confident of we can get a win against Bournemouth, just nervous as our form has dipped quite a bit recently. The concern from most I would say is that we have lost key players .We have to play the next 2 with basically 2 senior CMS who will also have to play away at Lille. Hopefully Cash is back at least so we can get Konsa back to CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do worry about us though with just a single goal lead as Lille are good side On the plus side we are now mathematically safe from relegation 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 If we assume Liverpool and West Ham are out and Liverpool win and West Ham lose their games next week. We need Arsenal, City through and Dortmund and Bayern out and it's all but done. If Leverkusen and say Bayren go through we need Villa and City to make the finals (City knocking Bayern out).

turvontour Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 The sky commentator in the Bournemouth Man U game said that Villa fans will be watching this game with interest as Villa and Man United are vying for champions league spots.

Keyblade Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 If we lose to Arsenal and Liverpool as is pretty much expected. 3 wins and a draw from the other 4 should see us through to 4th. We went on a similar run at the end of last season. I know Unai can pull it off. We got this 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the opportunity to focus on champs league not far greater overall? 3 games away from a European final… yes, it would be a bad thing… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at it this way, I'm sure it'll make us a lot more focused now. Don't see the same happening against Bournemouth or Chelsea now. We are locked in. It's all about grinding out a result away to Brighton imo. Hopefully we can keep our unbeaten run up against them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben1505 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Spurs could conceivably get 0 points from these fixtures. This would come with at best -3 to their goal difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be talking about Spurs and us and how we get top 4. Instead we’re talking about who’s going to catch us. Hopefully fan mentality can change one day.

MaVilla Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Weirdly, i would say Newcastle are more of a threat now than Manure, if you had to say which one of them was a threat. Both teams on same points and same games, but..... Newcastle's run in is Palace, Sheff utd, Burnley, Brighton, Manure & Brentford. Manure's run in is Sheff Utd, Burnley, Palace, Arsenal, Newcastle, Brighton. tbh, both have a much easier run in than us or Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post useless Posted April 13 Popular Post Share Posted April 13 (edited) Newcastle are no threat whatsoever, they're ten points behind with only eighteen points to play for, if it was the other way around and we were ten points behind them with six games left, not one person would be suggesting that we could catch them. The only team that are a threat to us are Spurs Edited April 13 by useless 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
