Top 4 finish odds

5 points behind with an inferior GD so effectively making that 6, with 8 games left, facing away trips to Arsenal and Chelsea.......

If you get done at the Emirates and United roll over Villa, then it'll be as good as over.

 

those odds at the top 4 will all get worse and ours will lengthen

city will prob now be 1/50 at best as we are now a bit too far back to even look at them
Arsenal will come in to 1/25 IMO
Utd have to be 1/8 or 1/10 on
LFc are still in there so if saints and spurs were 12/1 LFc have more points than them so have to be smae sort of odds

I think with 8 to go it'll be very much a case of games running out.

 

Arsenal 1/33
City: 1/25
Utd 2/11
Pool 8/1
Spurs 12/1
Saints 20/1

8/1 is poor value IMO, should be longer now.

 

I was wondering what our odds were now,I was expecting longer than that

 

Arsenal 1/50
Utd: 1/20
Cty 1/9
Pool 13/2
Saints 20/1
Spurs 100/1

 

13/2???

How much money is on lfc to create such short odds

 

Exactly, betting doesn't reflect reality.

 

1/9 for city is still prob fair

 

They're not short though.

City are the only side you could realistically catch now and they're 1/9, so your 6.5/1 ensures the bookies win irrespective of the outcome, as long as they keep a level book.

 

Yeah, I meant betting doesn't reflect our reality, but I agree with the City odds although PNeville looks like he doesn't.

BBC Sport pundit Phil Neville: "The pressure is mounting massively [on Man City boss Manuel Pellegrini] because the results are going in the wrong direction.

"His team have lost momentum, they are now looking over their shoulder maybe at Liverpool, who play against Newcastle. If they win that they are thinking can they catch Man City.

"So going from a strength of can we win the league to now thinking can we finish in the top four, I don't think that's good enough for a club like Man City. With players they've got. The players aren't performing but I think the manager sometimes, particularly with his tactics, are letting his team down.

City have got West Ham at home at the weekend and Utd are away to Chelsea.

 

City in the end have the points and Gd on us and only have to perform at him to fall over the line


If we get the 3 tonight then they fail next weekend (unlikely) then it closes up a bit

 

Bit of movement after last nights result
