Very lucky today but them's the games you have to dig in & win by any means necessary.

 

I think City will win all their remaining games but there's a chance of a hiccup like against Newcastle so still very hard to call it! Even more so the top 4 battle, I'm hopeful Spurs keep being Spurs & bottle it once again...

I can't see City winning every remaining game, just like I doubt we will, but if they do them fair play as there's nothing you can do when a team goes on a 14+ game winning streak especially with the pressure that's going to be them come April. The midweek game against Cardiff should be an easy 3 points for them.

 

Would be funny is Spurs' new stadium ends up showing Europa League games next season.

Neil Warnock has practically thrown that match already! As much as I'd like to think they won't win the game against us, the difference in quality is just frightening even with all the goodwill at United at the moment, they'd have to be really off their game for us to stand a chance. Your toughest game is probably the one against Chelsea, they're very hard to predict atm. Southampton away could be a banana skin too...

Fulham and City were always 3 point bankers. We have some difficult games too, but it's a title race. Daft things happen, like I said us winning in the 90th minute today a scrapping win is probably more demoralising than winning 5-0. City are a great side, but they've been beaten 4 times in the league this season. They play every 3-4 days and something has gotta give at some point hopefully.

 

Our recent record against Chelsea at Anfield is horrendous so not looking forward to that and of course we play Newcastle away from home, great story for the banter if Liverpool drop points to a Bentiez team!

Southampton away this Friday will be super difficult as they are playing well and fighting for their lives.

 

Hopefully wins like today will be psychologically difficult for city to take as we just won't go away!

My gut feeling Arsenal are looking at 3rd in the table tomorrow, considering Arsenal's game is a home game against Newcastle. 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th looking very close now.

Well played Wolves, well played. It's ridiculous how much of a bogey team they are for us, even previously when they were back in the Prem I remember when they brought our glorious unbeaten run of the 2010/11 season to an end. They *should* have had the Cup Semi on their mind & they still swatted us aside with ease. Young & Smalling had absolute shockers, flush in the summer plz Ole.

 

Not getting top 4, I'm almost certain of that. We won't beat Everton, City or Chelsea. Arsenal & Spurs will fill the remaining places in that order. As I've said before though it's incredible we're even in the picture after the situation we were in immediately post-Jose. PL Season was over in December effectively, one(well two) last hurrahs against Barca & we're on the beach :cool:

 

It's really disappointing after breaking a losing run of matches on Saturday to be defeated again tonight and to lose to Wolves again by the exact same score as last time makes it even worse. Chris Smalling had a decent game on Saturday but he amongst others let us down tonight, this could do a lot of damage to our top 4 hopes but we still have a chance. Tottenham can be caught and I don't expect Arsenal to win all their remaining games, their match away at Leicester this month could see them taking an L
That is true actually, everyone is banging on about how easy Arsenal's run-in is yet 5 out of their last 7 matches are away and they are largely garbage outside the Emirates. 4 out of those 5 away games are against teams currently in the top 10 so it's almost inconceivable they won't slip up somewhere...

Arsenal will slip up somewhere and so will Man Utd, it's just a case of who slips the most. I suspect Chelsea's eyes might look towards the Europa League as a way in to the Champions League. You'd think Spurs are bankers, they have the best first XI and they have 5 out of 7 games at home.

 

Don't think getting beat at Wolves is a bad result in isolation, as they are set up to play against the better teams. Just like I harpered on about before, the stats of chances created and conceded are starting to look a little more balanced out.

5 wins in the last 6 matches then that Man United need to finish in the Top 4 according to Ole. Just can't see this happening.

 

 

I wonder if any of the big teams will look to come in for Wolves players, especially if they manage to win the FA Cup.

 

 

I would be surprised if it would take 5 wins out of the last 6 games to get into the top 4, it's not like the other teams are that far ahead. Ole probably just said that in order to raise performance levels to near perfection.

 

Let's face it, English football would be better off with us in the Champions League rather than Arsenal who are an embarrassment quite frankly. The round of 16 is all Arsenal can achieve and if they really want another 10-2 battering again then they can go ahead.

You're probably going to be 3 points behind the rest of the top teams after this round of fixtures, plus with 4 teams so closely matched it leaves little room for error. I'd say you could possibly afford to drop points in 2 games, but don't forget there's the Champions League games as well which will be a huge distraction (I know the other teams have them too).

 

It will go down to the last game of the season but you'd need to be pretty flawless from here on in I reckon.

It just means United will see their match against City as a must win match *.*

Going to be such a weird atmosphere at that game, half the fans won't care if they get beat.

If united need to win to have a chance of the top 4 you would think they would be desperate to win!

I don't get tbhe final paragraph? Arsenal are as likely to do well as anyone else!
