Europe Thread 25/26

[bag a yoko]

Actually, looking at other teams fixtures I think three wins gets us sixth. And then it's whether villa can win the Europa as to whether that would be Champions League.
Right now tho, my money would be on a 99th minute Spurs equaliser to deny us Champs League.

Have you seriously been considering we might get the Champions League?

We've got a good shot at getting the Conference and that would be a hell of an achievement.

Europa League would be miraculous. 4 teams we're fighting for Europe lost. 2 won. We all had City as a right off so we're well in the mix.

Just said in the Moyes thread that those stoppage time goals have cost us 4 points in the last 3 games. We could be in 7th now.

Looking at the run in of the teams around us reckon we're going to be missing out by the odd point, which is very much in keeping with the way supporting this club has been for the last 30 years.

We probably need to win 2 and draw 1 to stand a chance now. Massive points dropped that from the position we were in

 

[Shibbywiggles]

Three points off conference league with two very very win-able games ahead

If we can’t beat Palace and Sunderland with nothing to play for then we don’t deserve to be in any European discussion

If we do beat them, I think we’ll get Europe with a big performance on the final day

I’m not going to get my hopes up, but we have three very winnable games and tonight should give the players some confidence, even if the final result was disappointing.

I dont think that would be enough.

Probably won't be.

Trying to calm down and clear my head so...
6th place could be CL if Villa win Europa and come 5th
Bournemouth, 4pts ahead, ful and nfo away, city home. 4-6pts
Brentford 3pts ahead, have city and liv away, Palace Home, 3-4 pts
Brighton 2pts ahead, Wol, utd Hone, Lee away. 5- 7 pts
Che same pts, liv sun away, spurs home 3-6pts
Fulham same pts, bou, new home, wol away 3- 6 pts
Sun 1pt behind, utd che home, eve away. 3-6 pts

Those ahead have better GD, worth a point at this stage.
I was conservative in the points I gave each too
We need to win all 3 to have any chance and hope they slip up.
Can the players rally after 3 in a row late sucker punches?
This didnt make me feel better at all

 

[ah11984]

As if we’re capable of seizing the moment and winning 3 in a row.

Given our constant way of messing things up, I’m absolutely staggered we didn’t get relegated in recent years.

What?!

 

[blueconverse]

Imagine these bottlejobs in Europe.

 

[Wat Tyler]

For a chance of Europe we need to stay with the casing pack and hope Villa in their competition.

Clutching like.

Villa winning EL isn’t really relevant

 

[johnjoeefc]

I dont think that would be enough.

It likely wont and i wouldnt fancy us getting it either. The two fixtures look favourable but i would expect we will get 4 points from them and then lose to spurs and finish 11th

 

[Toffeepot]

Yea
Would be great

It is
If they come 5th and win, 6th place becomes CL
