5th is definitely within our grasp now IMO. We have a game in hand on Spurs, which if we win we'd sit in 5th given our better GD. Spurs play Utd, then us, then Crystal Palace, then Villa. Four very tricky games.

Brighton will then overtake us

Top 4 chances disappeared weeks ago… best we can hope for is 5th and Europa League.

5th looks good - anything for sixth just in case ?

[SydneyBridge]

Does the PL get an extra CL place if city win it?
If not, think 5th is Europa cup and 6th/7th is Europa conference, whatever its called

If a club win the UEFA Champions League or UEFA Europa League and finish in the top four, their qualification for the UCL through their league position is not transferred to another team.

[SydneyBridge]

Fair enough, thank you

[Flip Martian]

If we qualify for a European place this season, it really shows how poor a club can be and still qualify for Europe...

I'd given up hope a while ago, but there has been some stuttering and it was still a slim chance.

We'd have to close a 10 point gap and hope Brighton inexplicably collapse.

I wouldn't be putting any of my own money on it.

Shame Utd beat Brighton yesterday but it's going to be fun seeing them get mullered 5 nil in the final.

[jammy-git]

Seeing Utd lift a trophy, or see City take a step closer to the treble...

[SydneyBridge]

We could be 5th by wednesday night, if we can beat West Ham (tough...)and other results go our way. Cannot see us getting 4th though

Remaining games
West Ham A
Spurs H
Fulham H
Brentford H
Leicester A
Villa H
Southampton A

Would hope we can win the home games, away games are tricky especially WH

[jammy-git]

West Ham and Villa will be tricky. Southampton looked good against Arsenal too. I'd like to say Spurs is a game where form goes out the window somewhat, but they really don't look great at the moment...

A good day to be out.

Agree, think I will just forget the match exists.

It's like the Real Madrid - Man City CL game. There's no good result.

Oh for that one I want Real to give City a spanking.

Yea, annoying to have to see Real win it again, but I agree with this.

I'd prefer City to win but then to lose to Milan in the final. To get so close and and not win it AGAIN would be hilarious. Might also be the distraction Arsenal need to win the league.

Really don't want to see Real in another final.

[jammy-git]

Actually, I agree with that! But City would annihilate Milan.

Utd have beaten Citeh in the league this season.

No guarantee of any mullering.
