    At least they can send the kids ( and Saka of course ) out for a humiliating defeat to Southampton.

      Unfortunately, we need to win that game, following the dreadful performance against City

      The nightmare scenario is we finish as runners up in all four competitions. We'd never hear the end of that particular quadruple......

        My mates are already on it - the Quadruple Bottle Cup.

          Bayer Leverkusen did that a few years ago, possibly the season we beat them 4-1 at Highbury(?)

          There's no real League Cup in Germany so a few Leverkusen players made up for that by adding that Summer's World Cup final instead

            I'd happily scrap every other game for the title. But unfortunately, it doesn't work like that

                What is with this mealy-mouthed nonsense? Winning our remaining home games basically assures us of the title. These games are:

                Bournemouth - Manager probably off and nothing to play for.
                Newcastle - shocking form
                Fulham - lol
                Burnley - they're down.

                This is assuming we lose away to City (probable), West Ham and Crystal Palace.

                  Bournemouth unbeaten in 11 games. Last team to beat them was us.
                  Newcastle are ****s.
                  Fulham have been a problem before.

                  Nothing can be taken for granted. Lose at City and we are a bit ****ed.....

                    We must assume defeat at City. It's definitely likely but it also doesn't really matter. They have Chelsea (a), Bournemouth (a), Everton (a), Villa (h).

                    Even if they do win them all I can't see us failing to win our home games. And I think we'll beat West Ham and Palace away too if we have to. Palace for one will have absolutely nothing to play for on the final day of the season - but it won't get that far.

                      It's the draws that will cause us to bleed out - 3 draws equates to 2 defeats

                          I agree with you. Every little bit helps though.

                            I think if we lose at City, we'll blow the league.
