I think West Brom, Leicester, and Newcastle is a trickier than it looks on paper run in for our team, which I think we can all agree has looked tired lately. Anything that gets us across the finish line at this point easiest is fine by me. Draw or Loss. If we win Saturday that takes a lot of my worry about it off, but after today I could easily see us dropping points vs West Brom again which will fuel Chelsea.

But that wouldn't prolong the agony for them both.

Edit. Its early. Misread post lol.
Anyway for me the best result between Chelsea Liverpool for us has to be a draw surely.
I'm not too bothered if we finish 3rd or 4th. Obviously 3rd is better but we've been playing away at wembley all season. Taking top 4 would be a massive achievement and cl football into NWHL.
Can anyone confirm 4th misses out on cl if Arsenal and Liverpool win cl and Europa?

I think Chelsea will beat them.
Unfortunately the only result that ever happens for us at wba is one all. No disaster by any means but they aren’t a good side and we should beat them. But after seeing us last night, if we play like that again it will be a struggle.

Yeah I agree because invariably when that happens it turns out to be a shit day.

Think it depends. With 3 games left the most Chelski can get is 75 points. So we need 4 as it stands if Chelski drew the most they could get is 72 points. So we would only need a draw in our last 3 games to be safe, but if Liverpool did draw
And won 2 of the last 3 we would finish 3rd.
I guess ask me after we have played West Brom ?

We would still finish 4th even if we only picked up 2 more points and Chelsea managed to get 7 points from their last 3.
We’re home and dry boys!

Totally agree. Mind the Gap Chelsea, nothing can possibly go wrong for us now.

I think Liverpool and Chelsea will draw at wknd. Chelsea aren't good, they barely managed to get past Saints, Burnley and Swans and even though LFC will rotate, they'll still have a lot of quality. I think it's more likely LFC win than Chelsea. That's also fine by me if that happens.
I think WBA away will be tricky cos they've defo improved. If we play like last night then we'll probably lose, maybe draw. If we can sort ourselves out then I see us getting the win.
Either way I think last night was the key. Beating Watford will give us a mental boost for this top 4 run-in and we're near enough there.

No that's not true, this has been gone over so many times Im shocked it's still a thing .
Liverpool would have to finish 5th and win the cl as well as arsenal winning the el
In this clown scenario Chelsea would have also had to finish 3rd with us finishing 4th

Vardy and especially Mahrez are in poor form lately, but you just know they’ll be up for it against us. Not feeling comfortable about that last game at all.

Ideal scenario sees us win our next two and Chelsea and Liverpool drawing...
It would see Chelsea out of touch and 7 points behind with a max of 6 left if we beat Brom and they draw.
We would aso be a point ahead of Liverpool with two to play, Liverpool would have one game left, so one more win out of our remaining 2 would take care of that little problem also.
2 wins for us, and a Liverpool and Chelsea draw please.
