This season and the chase for what used to be the pulling elixir of top 4 we are like a cat and 9 lives.
What I do not expect for one moment is that today will provide any relief. That's okay though because Huddersfield, Brighton and Watford owe us nada and so it's only their professional pride at stake. If like Bournemouth yesterday they are already planning the number of jars they will have when on holiday good luck to them.
So for me it's all on next weekend and the facts mean that the odds will still be in our favour until you remember no Kane and no Son.
But Leicester and Burnley are 2 of the 5 clubs you would not want to face on your last day.
Rodgers who I think is a better manager than Pochettino and Dyche will want to sign off next weekend with wins at their home grounds. No doubt, so therein lies hope.
But of course because we cannot even draw games (1 all season is another sign of how weak we have been) United could win both their games (likely) and overhaul us.
But in our hands it will be until it's 9 lives over.
Valencia scoring at the Emirates helps so there is no way Emery can play anything but his best side or the side he feels can hold the 2 goal advantage.
All I saw was Rogers is better then poch. What on earth gave you that idea??!
The geezer is melting like butter in the sun the moment, he also thinks that Liverpool still have more chance of reaching the CL final than Spurs.All I saw was Rogers is better then poch. What on earth gave you that idea??!

Come on now. It's becoming clearer by the day that Notabadsquad is a Dipper. Of course he thinks Rodgers is better than Poch!

If we get Europa League then that is our fault entirely a fold up of epic proportions.Fully expect Brighton to roll over after 10 mins. Especially after their performance against us. Woolwich haven't lost against Burnley since 2008..
United will win both final games 4-0.
Chelsea will snatch their wins.
The past few years I've thought yeah champions league has been fun at times but I wouldn't be bother if we weren't playing in it. That said.. Europa league is an absolute drain and we simply cant afford to be in it.
And although clearly money is the draw for any player we sign, I GUARANTEE it will be used as the excuse for us not signing big players.
In fact, could it be that us dropping down is part of the "rebuilding" Poch is talking about? It would make sense, cheaper younger players would be happy to get game time, what ever is left of our first team can focus on league?
I want to be positive but some of the things I've seen in the last few weeks mean I cant wait for the season to end. Two STRAIGHT red cards in a game? When did that last happen? A bit odd no? I dont want to say it because I feel sick thinking about it but I think it's fairly clear what I mean.
Horrendous day ahead of us. Even if Watford get a point, that means Woolwich will get into top 4. So we would still have to win in last fixture, because Woolwich and Chelsea would be on 69 points. We really fucked this up.
Logic suggest we want Chelsea to fucked this up, but I really really don't want them wankers to get CL football. Chelsea are bad, but not like them, we are used to their success.
