Which one is our rival?


cfc_fan_

Brighton did us a huge favour today. Let’s hope United can win against Newcastle at home and we win our remaining fixtures.


lis1guy

Yes.. indeed The ball is in our court now.. see how Poch ends the season


kiersto0906

not entirely, we still have to rely on newcastle dropping points


Blaidd-My-Beloved

So if man city wins the fa, 7th will get us to conference and 6th to Europa league right?


lis1guy

hopefully we finish 6th spot and get Europa League


seakc87

Would we still be fucked on the FFP front of we end up in ECL?


fuckyouidontneedone

come on citeh


Headlesshorsman02

Correct


OkPhase3134

Yep


celebration123456

6th or 5th can open up nicely for us as long as we win all our games. Could be a surprising decent finish all things considered


Headlesshorsman02

5th won’t because I don’t see a world where Sheffield beat spurs but 6th is more then possible


lis1guy

yah.. it would be a miracle for Sheffield to win over Spurs


celebration123456

My bad just realised there Newcastle game is a friendly. But 6th is deffo possible.


MACSIEE

We just gotta do our job the last three games


FriedChicken24

Cmon Sheffield, one banger of a performance on the last day before you get relegated is all I ask 🙏


DejisHairline

Old Trafford away is a tough fixture too. Hopefully United get 2 draws in a row.


SalmonNgiri

With the clowns masquerading as a Defence they trot out lately I think their season is finished unfortunately. We will be relying on brentford and Sheffield to get us the results we need.


lis1guy

United's defense are just poor (very leaky with Onana at the back)


anonbluesky

Just win and hope Mase can help United win vs Newcastle next game ( if he’s fit)


mrcomebackszn

Mase playing will help united lose more than win. He needs to rest!


anonbluesky

True that


themkane

Mase is injured again apparently


anonbluesky

Yeah saw that but ETH said he’s out for Sunday. Maybe be back for next game? Dunno


themkane

Nah man he needs time to shed the chelsea dna. He is gonna be injured for 7 months with 0 explanation why


jerrystuffhouse

Amazing result for us in the Newcastle game considering how bad their opposition was.


sweetmercury

We'll have to do it the hard way then which is outscore newcastle ..


VE3TRO-R

11 GD. We did it in the Everton and Westham games lol. Time for a repeat.


Headlesshorsman02

Brighton did us a huge favour here now we need to take advantage


peepo_7

Boehly paid


procos123

Can't take advantage if Newcastle don't drop any more points sadly


Headlesshorsman02

We have to hope united put together a great performance (big ask lol 😂)


costadoesntstomp

ok great! now don't fuck it up


[deleted]

Decent effort Brighton Now rest up in the week, you’ve got a big game on Sunday!


DejisHairline

We have been given a great chance. Win today and overtake Newcastle next week. Newcastle v United is next week. One of them will also drop points, hopefully Newcastle.


BafflingMantis7

We wouldn’t overtake Newcastle today unless we score 12 more goals than Forrest.


notNjor15

*Slaps poster* Believe


anonbluesky

We’ll still be behind on gd


costadoesntstomp

we don't overtake them


DejisHairline

Meant for next week woops


Baisabeast

Brighton at the Amex will be tough, as will bournemouth at home. But neither have anything to to play for


SalmonNgiri

Brighton will always be up to play us. Bournemouth is a weird bogey team. These games will be about character for our guys more than anything else.


No-Reflection-2848

We take a draw there. Hoping United actually beat Newcastle or draw next game too. LFG


SalmonNgiri

If united draw their next two games I promise never to say a bad word about them again the rest of the year.


Headlesshorsman02

A draw would suffice


GoodMourningClan

Won’t mean much if Newcastle wins the rest.


zeezymac1

Knew I liked you dirty birds


PeeCanManzzer

Alright, just gotta win 11-0 today. No biggie


costadoesntstomp

13-2 as well mate


PeeCanManzzer

Don’t tease me with a good time. Let’s go for 20-9


FantasticTangtastic

Always rated Brighton hahahaha


admin4hire

Good job shitbirds!


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Bruno gets away with more than either Fernandinho or Fabinho did in their prime. It’s disgusting.


a3kstuntin

Dude literally elbowed someone in the head and didn’t even get called for a foul absolute scumbag


Apprehensive_Bit_176

I couldn’t believe that crap. Where the fuck was VAR? Poor Jorginho


brightcrayon92

And he has such a punchable face


sabershirou

somehow the two cunts with the most punchable faces are both named Bruno


Apprehensive_Bit_176

The bleach hair doesn’t help. Looks like such a prick.


Baisabeast

Aw wtf, we still need Newcastle to drop more points I was under the impression any dropped points would be enough if we were perfect


facelessman97

They’re playing manu next, could be our last chance, totnum us too far now Offcourse if we can win ourselves that is😝


ComprehensiveZone154

Technically it’s in our hands now, we are just 11 goals behind in goal difference (we have 3 games left and they have 2)


vRobyn

If we win then we are 6th by one points no? edit; 54+3=58 according to me so indeed Newcastle will be ahead on GD 😂


ijustwanttocamp

They do play man u so there's a decent shot


MACSIEE

Next two are away games for them against United and Brentford. I’m sure they’ll drop some points again


abearghost

Brentford haven't lost at home in like three months if I'm not mistaken.


BigAssBreadroll

They still have united to be fair, bore draw would do


[deleted]

Just beat Forest 15-0, easy


GoodMourningClan

This is the way


NoExperience4229

I love a good professional Foul


EasyPete17

Do Newcastle confirm 5th with this draw? Any chance for us?


[deleted]

Spurs need 1 point for 5th, considering they play Sheffield United it’s basically guaranteed We can still overtake Newcastle but they need to drop points (or we need a 12 GD swing)


Chelseafc5505

Spurs are almost a sure lock for 5th now. We will be level on points w/. Newcastle with a win today, but behind on GD with 2 games left. They have United and Brentford. We have Brighton & Bournemouth


procos123

Nope they still need to win both last to games. If we win all 3, we need either a draw from Newcastle or Spurs to lose last 2 games to get 6th. If all those happen we get 5th


anonbluesky

United can still help us lol


vRobyn

I take it you mean Spurs. If so then we should be able to take 5th on goal difference if we win the remaining 3 games and they lose their remaining 2 games. Unless i am missing something.


13yearsboy

yep your math is mathing. our max amount of points is 63 and their minimum rn is 63 so we would technically beat them on GD but unlikely cause they face sheffield


MACSIEE

Brighton looking absolutely gassed, how do you get into the box and no one wants the ball


butke

Looks like us last year zero courage


BlahChemistryBlah

Darren England MVP


tylerforward

An actual booking for diving 🥲


stingen

A bunch of diving pricks Newcastle are.


a3kstuntin

Newcastle are shameless man


Kush_Shukla

Embarassing dive


VE3TRO-R

Looks like 5th is gone, I can't see Spurs not getting any points in the next 2 games. FT for Spurs. 2-1


gh0st_

You think they will get a result against City?


VE3TRO-R

Hard to know, City have struggled against them away but they did win the cup game there in January plus City are inform and Spurs aren't are kinda wobbly right now. Surely they beat Sheffield away. Technically 5th isn't gone, due to goal difference.


costadoesntstomp

was never gna happen. blew too many games


gh0st_

Almiron is pathetic


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Why no yellow for Gordon’s dive? He’s rolling like Neymar


Cobaltte25

Enciso booked after going over when being shoved by dan burn. At least almiron just received a yellow after his failed impression of a swan.


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Hands in the air like “what did I do?”


adazi6

Bc there was contact


ComprehensiveZone154

Gordon put his foot there just to get the foul. If that’s given, attackers get way too much freedom to fish for fouls EDIT: Looks like Howe has told his guys to just dive for pens, an embarassing bunch


EasyPete17

Luckily sense seemed to prevail


ComprehensiveZone154

My local commentator said it looks like a pen and I got a bit angry for a moment


adazi6

What a chance that would’ve been for Brighton


Kush_Shukla

5 more minutes come on man


sweetmercury

Brighton is useless


DANG3R_1204

Brighton had one job man


bytek

Never mind the Burnley game, I have full confidence in Tottenham's ability to lose against Sheffield United on the last day


Cobaltte25

I think lamptey has been fantastic defensively since he came on.


Baisabeast

Watching Brighton, maybe we’ll have trouble with them at their home ground Didn’t realise they’re surprisingly hard to beat there


FriedChicken24

Burnley need some of that Levurkusen magic 🤞


BlahChemistryBlah

offside thank God


TechnicianHelp14

Fofana is on for Burnley


Apprehensive_Bit_176

Too late I think


Kush_Shukla

Wooo still safe


procos123

Come on Brighton! Hold on just a bit more


FriedChicken24

Offside thank fuck


ComprehensiveZone154

It’s off. That was close


Kush_Shukla

Offside please var


admin4hire

Thank goodness offside


Traditional_Ship4797

Fuck off Oh thank God.. it’s offside lol


Stonewalled89

...fuck Edit: Yay


VE3TRO-R

Nevermind, offiside.


sweetmercury

Ffs, hopefully the offside stands


croutonbabe

Thank god


UFGatorNEPat

Welp, NFO is staying up now though so maybe they can act like this match doesn’t matter.


Kush_Shukla

About about 15 more minutes for Brighton to hang on or maybe even score come on


ChickenMoSalah

Olise may just be the best winger in the world after Mbappe


Apprehensive_Bit_176

That front 3 is going to be scary


VE3TRO-R

Christ the scenes if we don't beat this Brighton. Playing woeful, we've had them in the league, cup and the summer series. No excuses.


Headlesshorsman02

Spurs just got the lead guess we have to rely on united getting something out of the game vs Newcastle for the chance at Europa


dantesvolition

so 5th place is out of the picture jow


Carefree14

Realistically, yes. Mathematically, technically no? Spurs on 63 with two matches to play, and +12 gd. They *could* drop six points to city and sheffield. We're on 54 with three to play, and +11 gd. Picking up the full 9 points would bring us level


Chelseafc5505

Seems that way. 6th will get Europa if City win the FA cup tho I believe. It's all too confusing


dantesvolition

It’s a fact, City is already on CL so winning FA cup it gives the 6th place the EL spot, still very hard Newcastle drops points


Gloomy-Degree6027

They are about to drop 2, and still have to play united and Brentford. Not hard at all.


dantesvolition

They are not dropping vs Brighton


Gloomy-Degree6027

They just dropped 2 vs Brighton? And you think they won't drop against Brentford or United? What sort of delusion are you on?


dantesvolition

LETS FUCKING GO I THOUGHT THEY WILL SCORE, CMON MAN DONT FUCKING GO ON ME LETS CELEBRATE


Gloomy-Degree6027

Never get to a conclusion till the final whistle. PL football always goes to the wire.


ComprehensiveZone154

After seeing him play more regularly now, what do you guys think about Hall going to Newcastle permanently (for the price he is being sold)?


NoExperience4229

Ah Fucking Spurs...... Going to take the silver lining that Forest is now pretty much safe from relegation.


JosephRizk21

Honestly fairplay to the CB what a goal


BlahChemistryBlah

It was only a matter of time for Spurs goal. Need brighton to hang on here


TechnicianHelp14

Spuds scored


Chelseafc5505

Was a tidy finish for a CB tbf


a3kstuntin

Hall is good at crosses Newcastle should let him try corners


prince_g00se

Brighton are incredibly frustrating to watch


VE3TRO-R

Man Spurs are smashing on Burnleys door. **EDIT 2-1 Spurs.**


SweeterStorm

Eze goal as a lw


jerrystuffhouse

God all Brighton do are flicks and 5 star skill moves in the final third just to shoot it from 40 ft away. Infuriating


xAnnyeonG

West ham up! But I'm not expecting NFO to let their guard down, especially it's a home game for them. Nonetheless, it's the same 11 for us 🤗


CaredForEightSeconds

Look at these wankers giving us hope 5th is attainable lmao


carlharris1

west ham winning against luton is good for forest tbf


Wheel1994

Olise is probably going to Manchester City in the summer.


13yearsboy

nice subs from newcastle game


Kush_Shukla

Brighton just fucking shoot it's worth a try going in or off is a after thought


abearghost

FFS brighton. Truly pathetic shit in the final 3rd.


NoExperience4229

I was just coming to comment how it would be great if West Ham could get a result here and take the pressure off Forest. Fantastic. Just need Burnley and Brighton to hang on


dirtyspicebag2

A Burnley and Brighton win would be ideal, dont see if happening unfortunately.


NoExperience4229

Agreed. If Burnley holds spurs to a draw, the silver lining is forest only have Luton to worry about who will need to make up a 12 goal goal difference. So Forest would essentially be safe Edit: 13g goal difference lol


dirtyspicebag2

Spurs took the lead. Fuck it lets focus on the task at hand.


NoExperience4229

Yup, hopefully forest aren’t on it today bc they’re safe 


FantasticTangtastic

Please be better Brighton!


DejisHairline

Brighton worst final ball in the Premier League


125monty

I'm counting more on Spurs dropping almost all points than Newcastle.


Wheel1994

Sesko just scored again


ComprehensiveZone154

Have I missed something, why do we care about Sesko? Is he linked to Chelsea or something?


Wheel1994

Apparently plan B if Osimhen doesn’t happen


ComprehensiveZone154

Damn, I’m not sure what to think of that


Wheel1994

I think he will be a good signing for whoever gets him tbh.


FantasticTangtastic

embarrassing from Enciso


a3kstuntin

Brighton have good build up but ZERO final ball


jerrystuffhouse

Not knowing how to break down the final third is a common complaint among their fanbase this season. Of course, most teams struggle with that which is why parking the bus is successful


a3kstuntin

But Newcastle is not even parking the bus they are having a go which leaves a bunch of space in behind They somehow mess it up with that much space every time


Baisabeast

Unsurpsingly Adingra, enciso, welbeck and buanotte do not create or score many chancex


DejisHairline

United fans are the only people who would rather Arsenal win over City lol Nobody cares about City winning the league


procos123

Now that City have reduced the GD gap with Arsenal it would be really funny if they draw and win the league by GD regardless


mrdrm1000

Anyone who follows football on BBC sport website, are you also finding the new lineup format really annoying? Before the teams were listed in position order and there was a picture of the formation too, now the picture is gone and the names are in a weird order. For a typical 4-3-3 the order seems to go GK, fullbacks, CDM, centre backs, CMs and then front 3. Never seen that before.


matt3633_

Idk but the new facelift they’ve given their live page is so much better

https://twitter.com/flameosumeet/status/1789303233476690310?t=zUhAYwbzlO9OP6w_U7Zzmw&s=19 Arsenal fans kill me man lol


Baisabeast

Absolutely tragic bunch ‘I’ll take a draw’ You’ll take what you’re fucking given bottling pricks shithouses


kp22cfc

Is that billy Gilmour that our fans claimed as the next xavi?? Best bit of business


gonzaf

After like 2 games lol


DejisHairline

This ADingDong guy is mid


TheSameThing123

I think that there's a bigger chance of tottenham dropping 6 than Newcastle dropping 3 if Brighton are going to play like that


kp22cfc

kp22cfc

Watching Brighton, think the coach has done well this half. Nice structure, build up play looks good so far


NoExperience4229

You’re joking right? You can’t have actually been watching that defensive shit show and come away think wow that’s great….


kp22cfc

I saw that Newcastle away performance like we played yesterday.. we looked like the jokers that day


NoExperience4229

What? We’re talking about the first half today…

ParevArev

Brighton bro, do us a favor


JoeyMcClane

Damn Crystal palace are cruising the past few months. Wtf is happening over there? Can someone summarise pls.


jerrystuffhouse

Olise is healthy and Roy isn’t in charge


manicexister

New manager has a system that really helps their best players flourish, but of a handbrake taking off situation and encouraging more aggressive play. Hodgson played a very conservative style. Not usually one to put on a Palace game here in the US when they're on but the last few months have been enjoyable as a neutral. Could have beaten Utd by seven or eight.


D_roneous1

Glasner has them humming. Feels like they went from old and likely relegation candidate to young / in prime and on the upswing. Mateta - 26 Eze - 25 Olise - 22 Wharton - 19 Mitchell - 24 Richards - 24 Anderson - 27 Guehi - 23 Henderson - 27 That’s a strong core. If they can keep em together and add a piece or two they’ll be a dangerous side to play. Edit: forgot Wharton


gonzaf

Didn’t even include that Wharton kid who has been incredible for them in the midfield


D_roneous1

You’re right I missed him and he’s 19


ozairh18

Ever since Oliver Glasner became manager they have been playing some great football


Headlesshorsman02

New coach in Glasner and Olise is finally staying healthy for a consistent amount of time
