Tuna Posted 13 March 2021 Share Posted 13 March 2021 Wonder whether Fat Sam will quit before the end of the season to preserve his never been relegated cv, allowing him to scam another club in the shit in the autumn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Quick Brown Fox Posted 13 March 2021 Share Posted 13 March 2021 4 minutes ago, tom27111 said: It doesn't matter. Fourth is as good as second. As I've just said a couple of posts above, the reward is the same. We aren't getting a trophy this year on league position. As good as the table looks if we're second, I don't care as long as after 38 games we are in the top 4. If we get Champions League football, nobody looks back and says we got it coming second, or by coming 4th on goals scored. All that matters is being in the Champions League. Why hope to scrape it and be the team others chase? Why not hope to be up there and comfortable? Just because the prize is the same makes it ok?

Edit...look at it this way. If you're 17th and trying to stay up, but 16th are playing 18th, what result would you want? Not a draw. You want 18th to drop points so they don't catch you. You aren't fussed about taking over 16th. Edited 13 March 2021 by tom27111 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KFS Posted 13 March 2021 Share Posted 13 March 2021 Wins for Ushited, Arsenal and Leicester tomorrow please. Leaves us the ability to lose to City, win 5 on the spin and lose all of the last three and we’ve done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It baffles me that people don't see this. Exactly. The gap to fifth is the most important followed by the gap to fourth (in case the Spurs and Liverpool win the European competitions). Anything else is a bonus 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great city, loads of boozers and the ground in the city centre. Ideal for a weekend, certainly don’t want them to go down.

I would quite like to see them achieve some of their potential as a club (as long as they stay below Leicester of course). I think the main reason people want them gone is the style of play which I can sympathise with. I feel they need premier league football to have any chance of getting rid of Ashley and move forwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wymsey Posted 13 March 2021 Share Posted 13 March 2021 (edited) Fulham have looked pretty decent this season, overall. Hope they manage to stay up. Burnley, somehow, manage to get rather unexpected results and he comfortable in the table. Edited 13 March 2021 by Wymsey 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deep blue Posted 13 March 2021 Share Posted 13 March 2021 41 minutes ago, tom27111 said: Exactly this. Definitely want Man Utd to win tomorrow. 1st place has gone, it doesn't matter if we come second, third or fourth, the reward is exactly the same. West Ham losing greatly enhances our chances of finishing in the top four, even if it is detrimental to coming second. There is a faint possibility that finishing 4th won't guarantee a Champoions League place, so we need to look to finish at least 3rd to be sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
