To me a draw is best result to finishing top 4. Arsenal will still drop points so less likely we will need the 3 points from 2 games.

What's the betting we now go on a run of consecutive draws!

I've revised my initial assessment of wanting a Utd win.... come in Chelsea!!!

Bournemouth v Spurs is an interesting game, one win is all we need and to be honest the two teams are the best teams to get a win against. Both are suspect in defence but open in their play. The Ajax games are making things more difficult along with injuries - im not complaining though because well... CL SEMI FINALS ARE HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE

More I think about it the more I think a draw is the best result. Puts Utd completely out of the running while still giving us a great chance of coming 3rd. Also means we need only need 72pts to guarantee CL.

A draw means 2 draws is enough for top 4.

Plus it means more chance Chelsea get top 4 which I want as I think they’re the team that will benefit the least from it given their transfer ban

Chelsea win put top four more probability but less so top 3.

Man U can’t finish above us and in front of Arse by four points with just two games - one point might do it.

Come on Chelsea

This thread is confusing me

I dont know who to root for. I said Manure but you fuckers confuse me. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH

A Chelsea win means 2 draws would be enough for us, and pretty much confirms being above United.

A United win gives us a better chance of finishing 3rd/above Chelsea, but also means we could finish 6th.

A draw means 2 points virtually guarantees top 4, but again means we could finish as low as 6th.

3 points will get us into the CL regardless of other results (unless we lose a game 10-0 or something stupid like that).

A draw or Chelsea win means we don’t necessarily need to win another game, as long as we don’t lose.

The benefit of United winning is that it increases their chances of finishing above Farcenal and Chelsea (but also us), and increases our chances of finishing 3rd above Chelsea.

Also we only want 4 English teams in the CL next season. So we want Chelsea in the top 4 and hope that they can stop the red scum win EL as I cabt see Valencia or Frankfurt doing it

not sure what i want...

United win... keeps chelsea 3points behind us. makes 3rd more achievable.

chelsea win... kills united top4 challenge, and we stay in 3rd juz by goal difference.

a draw... won't help both teams, and it takes 2 points away from both united and chelsea.

i don't think there is a bad result here for us. it's all in our hands.

Listen people. WE DONT WANT A UNITED WIN AS WE DONT WANT THEM 4TH. WE WANT US AND CHELSEA IN TOP 4 AND THE RED SCUM NOT TO WIN EUROPA. Plus Chelsea have a transfer ban so we can sign the left overs that want to play in the PL that city and liverpool dont want
