shailen Posted 23 July 2020 Posted 23 July 2020 2 games, 6 possible results. Assume all outcomes are equally likely. Chelsea, 4 outcomes would guarantee them CL and if they lose they need us to lose as well. 4/6 + (1/3*1/3) = 78% United, 3 outcomes would guarantee them CL but if they lose they need Chelsea to lose as well. 3/6 + (1/3*1/3) = 61% Leicester, 1 outcome would guarantee us CL but if we draw, we need Chelsea to lose. 1/6 + (1/3*1/3) = 28%

nnickn Posted 23 July 2020 Posted 23 July 2020 Chelsea 85% ManU 77% City 38% Going into last day, not a City fan alive who would not have settled for top 4 odds of these proportions. It's the brilliant first half of the season that has soured the fan base. One win is all we need for our 2nd most successful season of all time.

HighPeakFox Posted 23 July 2020 Posted 23 July 2020 Can I just suggest that those that have given up hope find something else to do between now and after the match, since it would appear there's no chance, and thus you can save yourselves a lot of heartache and negativity by going and doing something more wholesome and constructive with your lives than being gloomy here.

Just hope the squad is fired up, if they all want it that much it should make up for a lack of ability And if we don't win, there's every chance we draw. Wolves are going to want to secure 6th place so I would hope they do everything they can to beat Chelsea
LCFCbwoi Posted 23 July 2020 Posted 23 July 2020 It might have been mentioned earlier in the thread but couldn’t see it... What happens if united win the europa league? Does their CL spot go to 5th place or does it not matter as they qualified in the domestic season anyway?

If they finish 3rd or 4th, it makes no difference and whoever is 5th ends up in the Europa League. If they finish 5th, it means they'd be 1 of 5 English clubs in the Champions' League - but England would have only 2 teams in the Europa League.

That’s why people have done it this way
Ric Flair Posted 24 July 2020 Posted 24 July 2020 I'd love a fly on the wall documentary with Rodgers and our players based on this week, be fascinating to see what he has in store for this. Tactics have to be spot on, mentality has to be perfect which we have really struggled with in high pressure games. I really hope Morgan, Vardy and Schmeichel stand up and take the lead on that front this week. If I were Rodgers i'd be using them and the respect from their fellow players to fire them up this week and stay well out of that side of things. I'm looking for Tielemans and Praet to tap in to the pressure they must have felt when 17/18 at Anderlecht and winning titles, Evans has been there and won things. There is a core of this team that Man Utd can only dream about in what they've achieved before and if there's one game I hope we can take our chances and limit mistakes is this Sunday.

But What are we going to do magic some new derenders out of thin air? 3 of our regular 4 starting defenders are injured or suspended and fuchs is out also. It doesn't take an expert football mind to realise Wes, Bennet and Evans going against Martial, Rashford, Greenwood is going to be a very big ask. Stranger things have happened we beat a Man United featuring van persie, Falcao, De Maria and Rooney with Morgan, Moore and Konchesky at the back and Dean Hammond holding in midfield. So it not a 0% chance far from it It is what it is. We are an outside bet. But we are Leicester City that's how it's always been and that's how we like it. I'm buzzing for Sunday. What's the point of switching on your tele on if you don't belive in the team and the club just a little bit?

I get that there's no supporters, but I'm not sure the on field results show any decrease in home field advantage since the restart.
