    I said watch for the Chelsea late show to a young boy I was watching with. Just as against Everton they level in injury time as many times before. Very bad luck, badly wanted you to win that.

    I didnt see the game, only listened on the radio. But my guess is LVG got us sitting deep. The commentator was saying that about Carrick. We should have picked you off at 1-0 and increased the lead tbh.

    We only really have a chance of overhauling Spurs. I think that's unlikely after today but we've yet to play them so who knows.

    It's crazy talk. Top 4 is nailed on now, surely?

    City are grounded and are used to getting top 4. Spurs always have the ability to self-combust. If we beat them then the gap is 4 points. I still think it's unlikely bcos we have a c*nt in charge but it's the best chance we have... which aint much granted!

    They do **** up Spurs that is true.

    Would you want Europa or rather take sixth?

    I think part of the reason LVG got top four was because you played part-time

    At least the Chavs and Pool will be not in Europe next year.

    But that could be a bonus

    Is 6th not in Europa?

    I'd happily have Europa. I love football. I love watching United playing in as many competitions as possible.

    A better manager would have had us getting past the group stages of the CL and competing in the Prem. Van Gaal is an ar5e.

    A bonus for us.

    Klopp vs Pep for the title. Who's your money on Custard?

    Honestly, mate Europa is a joke, I've been to a final and the Carling is more fun

    no only 5th, FC cup winner or losers if winners are in CL, winners of **** cup only, losers get nothing, so 6th spot will be a euro cup place as ££££ will win the **** cup

    My thoughts exactly. These ungrateful twats that hate on the Europa are a strange spoilt species.

    Hola, disappointing to only get a point against relegation fodder but in truth a fair result. We were by far the better footballing team and it says a lot about the current Chelsea team that they parked the bus from the first minute. Sadly LVG's own negative philosophy kicked in after the goal and Chelsea were bound to score.

    I've said for a while that top 4 isn't happening because we've already gifted away too many silly points. Today was another example.

    I enjoyed our little foray into the Europa a few seasons ago against the likes of Atletico and Ajax iirc? I'm happy to see us play some dross in the group stages and hopefully continue and come up against some very good sides from Spain, Italy and Germany.

    BTW that doesn't mean I wouldn't want to see us do well in the domestic cups. I just think the more games the better :biggrin:

    Yeh I don't get it either tbh. The fact we dropped into the Europa this season is something to look forward to surely? And if next season we can't compete in the league while being in Europa, then we don't deserve to finish top 4 or any higher.
