Europe Thread 25/26

[ToffeeTim]

Very very frustrating sequence of results. And endings to matches.

I agree we probably shouldn’t be there. But seeing Bournemouth and Brentford be in the running - and considering where we were after Chelsea win…it was there for us.

I get what you mean but we've been inconsistent all season so I didn't expect us to carry on that form after Chelsea. Didn't help we barely kicked a ball a month after that game. Really killed the momentum.

The nearest this team is getting to Europe is the end of season pee up in Dublin

It’s still on must win all 3 games and send Spurs down

Can see us getting a win at palace.

A decent result there could see us level with Brentford if city beat them and above Chelsea if they lose at our lovalble neighbours.

Still in it 100% at this point.

Sadly, with another last second goal this one is over. It was a good run, but dropped way too many points in the past 3 matches(7 by all accounts). The lack of signings in January has now shown, one fullback and we would be in europe for sure.

As it's possible for half the PL teams to reach Europe, and the fact our squad would struggle to play Thurs/Sun, I've not been massively interested in where we finish. However, looking at our remaining 3 games, I reckon we will finish 8th.
I know to the vast majority of you, this doesn't mean anything at all but thought I'd write something as I'm having my morning coffee .

We don’t deserve it.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Need to probably get at least 7 points from the last 3 which 6 off (palace on the **** and S'land) are easily achievable.

Think unfortunately we'd need some of those above not to get many more wins this season and can't see that happening

If we won out it would probably be enough looking at the games left.

But we won't

That game will be irrelevant to them now, and we'll need to win and hope about another three results go in or 4 favour just to scrape the Conference League slot.

Not happening.

I think it was gone after the loss at West Ham. It could have been back on yesterday but it's definitely gone now after the last kick equaliser. It's fine margins in a lot of games but our composure and game management haven't been good enough.

Next year has to be about getting Europe and / or a deep cup run. I'm fed up hearing about stability and how great it is not to be in relegation trouble. That's not enough. It's never been enough.

We don’t deserve it.

Was talking to a lad at the game last night, he was saying that if we didn’t get Europe then it would be down to us being unlucky. I said the same as you, if we didn’t get Europe then it would be down to us not deserving it.

 

[blackie_jones75]

Trying to work it out, so if Chelsea continue their downward trajectory we need City to win the FA Cup to guarantee euro qualifying positions goes down to 8th place?

 

[NathDogg]

Big point last night, even though we should have took all three.

Sadly, We have to win all our remaining games and hope for favours from elsewhere, which is frustrating as it was firmly in our hands a couple of games ago.

Not sure the manager and players have it in them.
