splinterdream Posted 2 July 2020 Posted 2 July 2020 Really is impossible to predict our results at present, last night in the second half was the first time since the Villa semis we've stepped up and given our all, had we played like that against Brighton and Watford I don't think we'd be in this position. I think we're more than capable of 3 wins 2 draws which I think woukd be enough but will we turn up.

PhillippaT Posted 2 July 2020 Posted 2 July 2020 Well, since my reverse psychology has completely failed to work, so far, I'll have to try the opposite... 3rd dammit - we'll finish 3rd!
hamptonfox Posted 2 July 2020 Posted 2 July 2020 Premier League Table after 16 games. Since that time we have played 16 more games and gained 17pts. We've gone from 6pts better than Man City, to having the form of a bottom 6 side - for 16 games. https://www.premierleague.com/matchweek/4306/table
Foxes96 Posted 3 July 2020 Posted 3 July 2020 Anyone got any ideas on what the likely outcome of Man City’s appeal is? Looking increasingly important for us and Champions league next year. 3 of us, Chelsea, Wolves and Man U given our starting position and we’re still in with a decent chance. 2 of the above and I’m a little less confident.
Scotch Posted 3 July 2020 Posted 3 July 2020 We'll end up 5th and be relying on the Man City ban for CL football. Absolutely written in the stars.
jeffschlupp Posted 3 July 2020 Posted 3 July 2020 There is almost no way we can realistically finish 7th, anyone suggesting that is talking nonsense. Sheff Utd in 7th have 47 from 32, that's not even 1.5 points per game, on that basis they won't make 57 points. After this weekend they play Wolves, Chelsea and us back to back. Arsenal have got us, Wolves, Spurs and Liverpool in the next four. And Spurs are in the same boat. If any of the teams 7th and below somehow hit two points per game (i.e. win 4 of 6 mostly difficult fixtures), they will still only get to 59. We will hit 60 without a doubt. I still think we are favourites for top four. 3 points and a goal difference of at least 9 better than any of the challengers is still a big cushion given there are only 18 points left to play for. Ultimately, we are 'due a win', and Wolves and United are 'due a loss'. Nobody expected Chelsea to go and drop any points at West Ham, never mind all three. Wolves and United will have similar shite results.

But completely agree, no way will we drop below 6th. As a few have said, I think 5th will be us.
shailen Posted 4 July 2020 Posted 4 July 2020 I think we will still finish 3rd/4th. Will be tight and go down to the final game but I think we'll be motivated from now on since we have lost our lead and grip on champions league.
winteriscoming Posted 4 July 2020 Posted 4 July 2020 Hope I’m wrong but I think it will be 5th or 6th. Would of took that at the start of the season. Now I’d be really disappointed if we finished outside top 4. Anyone who says they’d be happy to finish 5th or 6th are talking nonsense. We were something like 15 points clear - 5 wins. Must win game against palace.
David Hankey Posted 4 July 2020 Author Posted 4 July 2020 After today's first half performance Leicester City appear quite happy for Manure, Chelsea & Wolves to all overtake them, very disappointing.
