If manure can still make 4th then we can still win the league. They need to no their limitations, especially with that beaut in charge

Arsenal have won 2 out of their last 7 , united have won 5 out of their last 7 , arsenal will finish 6th or 7th on current form.
Top 4 is ours to loose

aye agreed, but cannot discount the difficulty of arsenals and united fixtures during that period, no chance united finish anywhere above 6th and aresenal will win at least 2-3 of their remaining games

Definitely still Arsenals to lose:
West Ham (H)
Hull (A)
Newcastle (H)
West Brom (H)
Norwich (A)
Really don't see Arsenal slipping up that badly even in their current form. Remember Arsenal have been doing this for the past 20 years, they always seem to find a way of grinding out results to get champions league.
Sorry for being a pessimist but champions league isn't a foregone conclusion.

Your wrong mate it's our to lose, we have 6 games to play, get 6 wins were 4th. Starting at Sunderland on Saturday.
Any game in this league is losable.
If all goes well in the next nine days and we beat Sunlun and Palace then they will be twelve points behind us when they come here.....and they will only have five games left.
They basically need to take maximum points in their last five games to have a chance to finish above us.
And they still have Arsenal to catch as well.
We win all our remaining games and we get 4th, we simply use the old age logic of 1 game at a time, treat each 1 like the most important game, it doesnt matter if we are playing Palace or City, theres 3 points on offer, we take them all, starting at Sunderland.
For a few years we have been respected sort of as a team, now we are feared and that goes a long way against opposition. Every opponent we have left will be cracking their pants.
We need to treat each match like the Arsenal showdown. Go out all smiles and guns blazing. Forget the gunners. Forget who wins the league. Just focus on Everton and whomever we're facing next.
I'm torn between wanting them out in the qfs just so it's done with as a possibility and wanting them out in the sfs instead so we're not playing on easter sunday.

Goal difference is now in our favour. So unless they suddenly start scoring masses of goals we only need to end up with the same number of points as Arsenal.
So 5 wins and a draw gets us 4th even if Arsenal win all 5.
Then if Arsenal draw one, we can afford to draw two, and so on.
If Arsenal get 11 more points (win 3 and draw 2 - not unrealistic) then we would need 12 (3 wins and 3 draws, or 4 wins and two defeats).
Looks very much achievable to me. But any one weekend the odds could shift massively either way depending on results.
