Europe Thread 25/26

[BlueStevie35]

Time to put away the Europe charade and play George, Dibs, Azzy, and Rohl a min of 30 minutes a match.

Over who?

Think we'll win one of West Ham and Palace and lose the other, lose to City, beat Sunderland and draw with Spurs.

Toss a coin as to whether that'll be enough.

 

[OzarkBlue]

Over who?

Take minutes from McNeil and Barrys time and there's 90-120 minutes of game for Dibs and George. Azzy and Rohl could easily find sub time if DM actually used subs.

Every chance 6th gets Champions league, so still lots to play for.

Not really. Villa who are 10 points ahead of Chelsea, would need to finish 6th and win the Europa for us to have 6 teams in the CL. if Villa win the Europa and finish top 5, then the extra space goes to a coefficient country (bizarrely, I think Scotland) it doesn't drop down to the team finishing 6th in the PL.

I can see us getting just 6 more points.

We need to hope against hope that 53 points gets you a Euro spot. That looks very unlikely right now.

West ham away is likely loss as west ham be fighting for their lives and probably want the points more, then city at home probably another loss as can feel the title looking like bottom half finish with so many teans involved cant see europe happening

 

[Bally1989]

Oh well Angus and the lads will have their excuses at the ready here!!

"Can't attract players because we haven't got Europe"

Silver linings and all that for some of our fans when they telling us to be calm come 25th July and we signed nobody.

 

[Ring master]

Don't get this West Ham is a likely lost stuff at all by many, because they need to win. We need to win just as much as them

Nope. If Villa finish 5th and win the Europa, then the team in 6th qualifies for the Champions League. This has been explained and confirmed by both BBC and Sky.

Just got to dust ourselves down and have a go.

Nothing to lose.

 

[Zatara]

Need 4 wins from the last 5 to get 6th i reckon.

 

[richardo675]

No chance get 4 wins from 5 best case be 3 wins from 5 that be 56 points be a very good return more likely around 53 to 55 points i say still big improvement on last season

 

[siddharth]

Well, now it is 13 points out of 15. We need to win every match and at worst draw against mancity. Every match is figuratively a cup final, but it does not bode well that we lost the one yesterday in such a fashion.
