Liverpool missing out on CL next season would be great but I have to place my priorities first and that is for us to secure a CL slot for next season, so I'm rooting for Swansea today.

Arsenal haven’t got an away point in 2018 only English league club. Yet people think they will go to Athletico who haven’t conceded a home goal in 11 games and get a result ?

Simply the case of beat Watford then pressure is really on liverpool and chelsea

We have had a long break we have to come out fast against a team that have had nothing to play for several weeks now. Surely they wont have the intensity we will have

I didn't really think Swansea had much of a chance today anyhow. This may well turn out a worse result for Liverpool than it is for us.

Except we havent looked anything close to up for it the last few weeks. Everyone talking about liverpool possibly missing top 4 when we're 4 points off them and havent looked up for it since April 1 is interesting.

Whats really starting to fk me off is the continued unfair ass raping we keep getting with fixtures at the end of the season. We're playing bloody catch up at the tail end every fkin season since we became top 4 just to put the pressure on a bit more.
I fully believe this is intentional.
Canhear the media bullshit now when Chelsea inevitably win at the weekend and we dont play until Monday night. 'Just 2 points off that 4th spot now' rather than seeing if we win our games in hand we are level with Liverpool.
Conspiracy I tell ya :mad:

I laugh when fans fret over top 4. Like i said in the another thread, most these safe teams are now on holiday mode and to think of the games we have left, we should comfortably make top 4 and finish 3rd now.

Unfortunately I don’t think Swansea are good enough to help us out.

Southampton messing up that 2 nil lead the other week was the real killer.

Amazing how quickly things can change. Remember thinking when Southampton were 2-0 with a 10 pt lead well that’s that then. And after just losing and drawing 2 games they are suddenly on our tails. Still think we will be fine but it ain’t over till that fat lady sings.

As expected, 10 points down to 2.....!

Must win on Monday night, Yes pool have opened it up, but they need 1 win for top 4 from their last 2 games due to their GD over Chelsea, they will get top 4.

We could get third but the way our form is its going to be tight.

Absolute must win Monday night, as lose that - I think we will implode and finish 5th

See my post earlier in the thread. Watford by far the easiest game left. The WBA game is going to be hard so need to be flying
