We're in europe next year.

Does anyone really think both Man U & Spurs will finish above us?

Win our games in hand and we're clear in 5th. But there's no real difference between 5th and 6th for us.

i have a horrible feeling in the back of my head that something will go wrong right at the end tbh.

we have a very bad fixture run-in, no easy games i see anyway. spurs' is piss easy, i'd say they're favourites for 5th. any sort of injury especially to lukaku and we're in trouble for the run-in. just glad van persie is out, but united have millions of worth of talent to score the goals. luckily they're inconsistant.

But they're manchester united, surely they can't not be in europe at all!

Delph is a great player.

1-0 benteke

Good goal that, well taken.

Delph was very highly rated before he moved to Villa, with a run of games this season he has turned into a decent player.

We have 9 games left, and they're all winnable. We win them all we're 4th, we win 5 out of 9 and we're in europe. We would really have to fall off a cliff to not make it.

Our home games are horrible, could just as easily win none of them as all of them. We're going to have to suddenly become a really good away side to get Europe I think.

all of our aways are against teams fighting the drop. those two points that spurs just gained could be the difference end of the season

Scrap past Cardiff outclassed for large portions v Swansea yet we're gonna beat Arsenal City and UTD, is that right? Never mind our away form is horrible

toffeejack · March 23, 2014

mind you, we'll be 6 points ahead of united if you add a win over palace to the scoreboard

We've always always upped our game at home against those teams above us. It's been a while since United or City have beaten us at home.

Always a threat is Crouch, he's always been a very tidy front man.

We shall see but I wouldn't pin my hopes on everton winning any of those three based on UTD's away form as with arsenal an on their day city can beat anyone
