Only if we win our last two games and they don't get a result at Brighton. They have a superior goal difference which means a win and a draw is not enough if they beat Brighton.
Mentality is our single biggest problem. After our title challnge last year the players strolled around at the start of this season against supposedly weaker sides and dropped points because they thought they were too good for them. Had they not done so we would not be going into the final two games praying for them to step up because we'd have points in the bank.I think we've all defended them so much recently with phrases such as "They'll learn from this", "they were unlucky" etc.
Bollocks. Can't hack it when the going gets tough. This is another time to prove you've got what it takes lads. Don't fuck this up. I believe we can, and will, get top 4 but the fact its been made this close still tells me this team is mentally weak.
Did you bother to read the post you responded to?Liverpool can't catch us if we win our last two.
I look forward to hearing more from you more often tbh mate, you've only shown up in the past week.Some proper apologists for the team out and about right now. Really isn't anything to defend. Wish the season ended the moment Alli scored against United, looks like the players gave up from then on
Win our two games we get 77 points Liverpool can only get 75 points. You are mistaking us for Chelsea.Only if we win our last two games and they don't get a result at Brighton. They have a superior goal difference which means a win and a draw is not enough if they beat Brighton.
I thought we still need 4 points to guarantee (barring a major GD swing) CL.So, win one game out of the two and we finish 4th, at least. Win both and we finish 3rd, simple!
I don't think anyone is apologising for the team, some of us are not pessimistic and are being positive about what we are going to achieveSome proper apologists for the team out and about right now. Really isn't anything to defend. Wish the season ended the moment Alli scored against United, looks like the players gave up from then on
Are you one of the players? I am sure these are the sort of pathetic excuses the team will come out with. I have defended them in the past but quite frankly am losing my patience. If we blow it this time it will be bottling of the first order. To see the Watford players outfighting ours on Monday was sickening. I hope they prove me wrong but they don’t seem to have the desire, fight or character to be able to handle these games. Disgraceful.Its not even us bottling it. We are just totally out of form. Its either mental fatigue or physically fatique or both.
Maybe we put so much thought and effort away at chelsea and the emotion of beating them at their ground in 28 years has fucked us. Could also be one eye on the WC
I must admit that with the Wembley move, I never originally expected top 4 this season but obviously with a decent advantage built up in 4th and what was on paper a 'winnable' last few games, it would be disappointing to fall short. Poch must be concerned with the drop off in performances and results however reticent he is publicly so one would expect to see changes in the summer. Trouble is that if we fail to achieve top 4 then he will find his transfer ambitions more limited as a result.Still some think we'll get 3rd ? this isn't going to end well. It's gonna end with us in 5th. Not being negative for negatives sake, spent first half of season convinced we were going to win the champions league!!
I'm just worried for those of you who think we're going to win the last 2.
How? A win and a draw is not good enough to pip Liverpool. Only two wins. What do I have wrong?Win our two games we get 77 points Liverpool can only get 75 points. You are mistaking us for Chelsea.
Bit uncalled for. He was expressing an opinion politely.Are you one of the players? I am sure these are the sort of pathetic excuses the team will come out with.
