    City to play Arsenal. I fancy Utd for 3rd place.

    Or will van Gaal f*** it up?

    In a way I wish City had won. Would rather Newcastle be down before we play them.

    I think a draw was the best possible result for us, doesn't help either team.

    Not quite...

    Arsenal are 13 points behind you with 15 points to play for
    City are 12 points behind you with 12 points to play for
    Spurs are 5 points behind you with 12 points to play for

    EDIT: Actually, you have. Just seen City and Arsenal play each other so only one of them can now finish above you.

    I read that Fabregas is all behind Leicester.Doesn't want Spurs to win it.Come on you onion,how many points have you taken from us when you played against our pathetic teams of the past?
    Now we are near the top the onion is crying?Unbelievable.
    Is there something going on between Chelsea and Spurs they haven't told me?

    No, but realistically no team will catch you now.

    On the other hand, the closer United are to a top 4 finish when they face Leicester, the better - even more so if that 4th spot comes at the expense of their noisy neighbours. City dropping points today massively helps that, especially as they still face Arsenal and United themselves.

    Not yet, l'arse have an easy run in, WBA, Sunderland, Norwich, Citeh and Villa. Should be good for at least 12 points, possibly all 15.

    The most points The Goons can get is 75, and that's if they win every game - a big if the way they're playing. We have 68 points. So, we need 7 points from 4 games to be sure of finishing second, as our GD is far superior.

    But, **** The Goons, let's concentrate on biting Leicester's arse!...

    Last night, my Gooner tennis mate said through gritted teeth that Leicester are about to bottle it and Spurs are going to do it. Not sure myself but we'll see. Still, extremely gratifying hearing that comes from an Arse whatever happens.

    I am not convinced, sometimes a relegated team plays with a freedom of no longer being under pressure, whereas if they can stay up when we play them they will be under enormous pressure and I get feeling that this Newcastle are more likely to be easier to play if they have to win

    Louis van Gaal says Manchester United would be challenging for the title with Tottenham if he had "a senior creative player".

    If he only he had a player like Di Maria... Or guys like Carrick, Mata and Rooney.

    Really feel for him, must be tough.
