How has it come to pass that we have a quarter of our season still to play, basically in one month?
* I know the answer of course. But it's just staggering.

We'll finish ahead of Villa. & probably Spurs

This topic should have a thread all of its own.
Surely at some point Villa will run out of steam? I know people will say the same about us, but our whole team seem on fire whereas they are relying on a couple of key players (notably Watkins), and if he suddenly loses form or gets an injury they'll start to struggle again.

Good practice for the number of games we'll face once we're in Europe next season.
I always find it odd when we consider that the games in hand are the ones that were postponed and so on - as if every other 'planned' week is a level playing field! It's surely the sum of the games left that are important. For instance - Villa have Man U / Wolves - we have Wolves / Man U (different home and away) - so roughly the same. They have Liverpool A - comparable to, say, Newcastle A? They have Spurs H, comparable to, say Forest A (the way things are going for Spurs!). Which could mean in effect that our games in hand are Southampton H, Everton H, Arsenal A, Man City H. If all the other games end with similar results for us & Villa, we have a very good chance of picking up 6 points more than them.

I’ve had shits bounce higher than Ryan Mason’s new manager impact so far!
Before Potter’s beardy glow up he genuinely looked like a PE teacher who was here on a ground tour.I’ve had shits bounce higher than Ryan Mason’s new manager impact so far!
Ryan Mason makes early Potter look like Mourinho. I’ve seen schoolboys with more gravitas
The shitter they are, the worse the burglary we faced becomes
I hope to finish above spuds. Just because they're shithouse scumbbags
I expect to finish below Liverpool . . . But it would be harsh. Give we've owned them this season.
Villa . . . . Anti football grease stain where you least want one. Shooting way above their weight thanks to a win at any cost manager.
I will be mightily peeved if we finish below a bunch of cheats, but not in the slightest bit surprised.
Oilyragtoon can't implode can they? Would be funny though.
It'll end up a shiity-arse-manure-tune, with a scouse soundtrack . . . Hopefully seagulls squawking in the background. The rest hanging about under the pier.
I digress, Spurs? Fighting for 8th with the other greasy cheats, Villa.

I see Ten Hag whinging about their run in to the end of the season.
Really boils my piss when you see the squad of players he has and what we have compared to them .

So a win on Thursday would rightfully take us above Spurs and Villa, leaving us hoping Palace do us a favour and Wolves have a positive reaction next weekend !

Yep, moaning when they only have congestion because of the League Cup, which they won, the FA Cup, now in the final of, and Europe. I mean come on man. Still played a game more than us too ffs
If we've won on Thursday, we can allow Spurs a draw - they'll still be below us.Definitely don’t want palace to win any game - I do want Spurs to lose Saturday though
Unfortunately their game against us is 10 days before the FA cup, and longer before the CL final.
City had the league wrapped up by the time we beat them. Can see it happening again. Arsenal are collapsing and Chelsea will get something against them.

No way - at this point I couldn't care less about palace - will definitely be hoping they beat spurs on Saturday as it'd massively help our cause.

Again, I hope Spurs lose. I don’t hope Palace win.
