[Albion] Is Europe off the cards now?

[Thunder Bolt]

Yeah we all forgot penalties don't count, and lets not think about the other 8 or 9 non penalty goals Pedro got this season.

He's on a wind up.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

They don't count the same way no if we had another penalty taker he´d have Maupay stats. No big club is buying a striker scoring the majority of his goals on penalty

For a start a majority of his goals aren't penalties, it's almost a 50/50 split. Most clubs would love a player with Pedro's calmness from 12 yards. He's up there with Tomer Hemed and Alexis Mac Allister as the best peanlty takers we've had in the Amex era. If Neal Maupay had that composure from 12 yards maybe he'd have scored a few more for us (he missed at least 3 from memory).

Ok maybe you´re right then and he´ll be sold in the summer for £100m like some suggest. Thats what happened to Hemed right

Yes

Yes

Basically a very long thread for a 3 letter answer.

Don't expect anything from Arsenal and City games. Every other game is winnable so we're not out of it but it'll be very tough to make it!

This.
We absolutley have to beat B'mouth and Burnley.
We have 5 home games left, IMO we need to win 3 of them. So if we lose to Arse and City then we would need 3 massive performances in the others.
5 wins out of 8 and I think we might squeak into ECL.
It's a big ask with everyone fit, with the current injuries it's a huge ask, last night really didn't help.

 

[Seasider78]

I may be a bit madly optimistic but think if we do not qualify for ECL (Europa is out of our reach)and maintain and build on this squad this summer I seriously think it could work in our favour and we could have a tilt at a top 6 finish next season.

 

[Doug-ees-evil]

I think we should treat European qualification like it's Glastonbury – and have a fallow year... one year on, one year off, to let fans recover financially and repair damaged and affected relationships.

Do you not think big money could come in for Mitoma?

Mitoma and Pedro are the two I could see serious interest in, with an outside shout for Perv.

possibly with Mitoma... im not sure though and the injury might just have quelled a little bit of interest.
Im hoping thats the case anyway
