I wan Chelsea to win just to watch Liverpool totally shit themselves.
I cant decide if i want to wrap top 4 up now or if i want a chance of liverpool missing out of CL next season(provided they lose the final). I think just wrap it up now as alot of things have to happen for liverpool to miss out on cl

Liverpool basically have to lose at home against Brighton

I think the other results will go Chelsea's way tbh

Depends on WBA result what I want to happen in Chelsea vs Liverpool. If we lost I'm not sure I want to see Chelsea move 2pts behind us with two games left against a good defensive side in Newcastle and a team with Mahrez and Vardy in it.

Nah worst Liverpool can do is 72, best Chelsea can do is 75. A loss to Chelsea and a draw to Brighton (73 pts) could see them bottle 4th.

Probably a big ask though, they'd have to fuck up the CL final as well.

A slightly postive spin going into the WBA game is that there will be more pressure on them to win, as they have to, to survive.

So we should have plenty of opportunities on the counter attack. Hopefully Sissoko won’t be on the end of them!

I will enjoy sending WBA down though. Had so many crap away days there and many dull games vs them at home. Time for them to slip down the leagues like Sunderland please!

Starting to look like it would be better if Liverpool is defeated by Chelsea, not the other way around.
Starting? Its been my preferred outcome once Liverpool failed to win on the weekend.

Nothing would make me happier than to see Liverpool get knocked out by Roma this week, lose to Chelsea, and then bottle the final match against Brighton to lose a CL space.

That finish would awesome for years to come.

I don't want Chelsea in the top 4 but it would make me laugh if the Scousers lost in the CL final and then miss out on the top 4 having been distracted.

Hard to see them bottling that Brighton game though.

trouble is even though it's pretty unlikely but if Wet Spam beat an on the beach Leicester, Southampton beat Everton and Swansea away, Swansea beat Bournemouth, Brighton might need a point on the final day. them and Huddersfield's last 3 matches are not very kind at all

It is quite conceivable that Brighton will need a point to stay up. Their last 3 fixtures are ManU, ManCiteh, Dippers and they can be caught by all of the clubs on 35 games

Definitely happy to see a Chelsea win on that and take our chances

Am I right in thinking that we need four more points for top four? Chelsea can get a maximum of nine and have a much inferior GD. We're currently five points ahead.

If we beat WBA. I want chelsea to win and catch Liverpool. If they don’t win CL and come 5th they’ve had a disaster. Brighton are very well organised a draw would be immensely possible. Let’s be honest if we were in Liverpool position we’d be absolutely shitting ourselves.

Perfect result Sunday would be a draw. If we can beat WBA Saturday that would put us a point ahead with a game in hand. We really can get 3rd.

I want a Chelsea win against Liverpool to ease our way to third but I would still want Liverpool to beat them to fourth place, Chelsea and Arsenal in the Europa league is so sweet.

if we cant get a win and a draw in our last 3 we dont deserve CL. Still, I want Chelsea to lose Sunday. We can still catch Liverpool.
