Man Utd will comfortably get top 4 their next 2 games are away to the beach boys and home to West Ham.

Their last game is Leicester

 

[Jack Regan]

Drawing 2-2 at home to Southampton is Man Utd looking unbeatable apparently...

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

They dropped down from 3rd apparently, funny that as I thought points were awarded at the end of games

But if they beat palace which you’d expect and West Ham you’d expect puts them on 65 points

Yep gotta love Sky. Dont get me wrong, they're very good going forward but defensively they're still ropey and definitely by no means unbeatable.

I'm loving the volume of people talking about how Chelsea are fucked because they have to play Liverpool and us.

Just let that sentiment sink in.....

 

[jd1981]

Realistically I see us getting 4-5 points with the games we have left, that'll comfortably get us Europa League football. If the unlikely happens and we win all 3 I think that'll get us top 4.

We really don't want to finish 7th which is what 4/5 points will get you at best. If we don't win the EL we'll be playing a qualifier the next week.

5 points will put us on 60 which should be good for 6th, looking at the sides behind us only Sheff Utd could pip us based on remaining fixtures.

Not watched a whole lot of Championship football this season and on that first half i'm glad i haven't. Terrible game of football.

 

[YoungWolf]

Yep, neither team will cope well in the Premier League if either get there. Not sure any of West Brom's back line is anywhere near good enough (Hegazi has been their best player in this game pretty much)

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Hegazi is a woeful footballer.

Albion will be cannon fodder if they come up (I think they will).

 

[slink]

Major overhauls needed. As mentioned no one in Albions backline is good enough but Livermore in midfield, Austin up top etc aren't either. So much work to do. Fulham look exactly like the team that got relegated, they do have money though just depends if they would spend it better this time.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Fulham have spent 10 years with a midfield you can walk through and a dreadful defence. I don't get how they never fix it.

 

[Newbridge Wolf]

Bloody hell, an hour of freedom and football on the telly and I end up asleep watching that tripe.

It makes you appreciate how good we have become watching that tripe

 

[YoungWolf]

Even with Pereira, who is obviously their best player and very talented, I'm not convinced will necessarily be good enough

Oh he's awful, meant more the state of their team that he had to keep them in it a couple of times.

 

[YoungWolf]

For those annoyed at the quality of the game - here's Robson-Kanu to bring us the moment of magic...

Don't think he will get a kick in the Premier League, will get frustrated and drift out of games. Might have the odd Grealish type reaction that we got from him earlier when Hector ruffled his hair.
