Europa League Qualification Poll

Anyone else feel like we are being a bit too cocky about 7th place?

West Brom are having a great season. Very likely that they'll gain ground on us this weekend too.

Massive game against them at Goodison, where we rarely seem to beat them.

I think most are waiting for the wheels to fall off. That they will run out of proverbial "gas" like Leicester did last year.

 

[degsy]

Start planning now - if The F A Cup goes as per form...it's nailed on.

Chelsea at home to Untd League Cup winner / 6th.
City away to somebody - could be an upset?
Spurs Vs Millwall - could be an upset?
Arsenal at home to Lincoln

Or maybe not, the more I think about it...if the rs finish 6th we could lose out
Or, If WBA catch us.
Or...

hold that nailed on thought for a bit.

Yes definitely and I don't like it. West Brom's excellent form stems back to before ours even started. After they got hammered 0-4 at home to City, they have been one of the form teams in the league.

Since November in the league:

West Brom: P16, W9, D3, L4: Points 30
Everton: P16, W7, D5, L4: Points 26

Their manager is also Tony Pulis who has made it difficult for us to beat his sides several times in the past, notably at Goodison with Palace.

They are the exact type of team i'd worry about playing at the moment.

Pulis has won at Goodison with WBA, Stoke and Palace... He's won 3 of his last 4 visits actually...

I voted yes

I've always wanted to go to Latvia in late June...

I don't know the run in WBA have, but I know ours couldn't be much tougher. Fully expect both teams to drop a few points.

I thought our run in was tough. They've got to play all above them bar Spurs.

West Brom are having a great season. Very likely that they'll gain ground on us this weekend too.

I am not worried about the teams behind us......leave that to the RS

Most are yep.

If we lose to West Brom and do badly against this big teams it'll be hard for us.

I still think we'll have enough to make 7th at worst but it could be tough.

I don't think that would affect us (providing Boro/Lincoln or Milwall don't win the FA Cup), because Man United have already got a Europa league spot from the League Cup.

If United came 5th, the RS 6th, us 7th...The top 4 would go in the CL, United would go in the EL for coming 5th, the RS would go in from finishing 6th (because the FA and EFL Cup winners already had a European spot), and we would go in the EL due to coming 7th (because the FA and EFL Cup winners already had a European spot).

I think the only thing that can stop 7th place getting in Europe now is if Boro, Lincoln or Millwall win the FA Cup. England has to get 7 places in Europe.

 

[Saint Domingo]

You've got to back us with a lead to get at least the same number of points as WBA over the next 12 games.

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

I don't know the run in WBA have, but I know ours couldn't be much tougher. Fully expect both teams to drop a few points.

Their next 7/8 games are as tough, if not tougher than ours. Got slagged on Reddit for suggesting West Ham might come through and steal 7th. I was kidding of course. I think 7th may be our place this season if we don't do the business. I don't see West Brom getting past us though. They've been awful against teams above themselves if memory isn't failing on me.
