The Race for Fourth

With only Two weeks left in the EPL season, things are heating up for the final Champions League spot.

Currently the table looks like this:

Spurs 64 Pts

Villa 64 Pts

City 63 Pts

Liverpool 62 Pts

Villa and Liverpool both have played 36 games, while Spurs and City each have a game in hand, which is against each other.

As a Villa fan, it looked like it was impossible a couple weeks ago, but here we are.

Spurs can still get fourth, with a win at Burnley and an Arsenal loss at home against Fulham (who have nothing to play for)

Villa can still get 5th with a win against at home against Blackburn and a City loss at West Ham.

3rd you mean re: Spurs?

With the Arsenal-Fulham game, which Fulham will you see - since they have the Europa final next Weds?

    • Anybody got a clue what this is supposed to mean? 🤔
    • I figured as much. Hopefully he's just resting up and will be ready for round 3 (if we make it that far.)  Sucks to see. Hes been our best defender (besides Slavin) in the playoffs so far.
    • I've never bought into the idea. There's just too much at stake, even for front office people. Jobs are lost, trust is lessened, lives are altered, reputations are damaged and more. Throw in that the average front office person isn't as young as the average player. They may not have ten years ahead of them to salvage their careers. Any given year could be their last. The only person not guaranteed to suffer some direct form of consequence from losing is the owner, and even there you still have problems (fan reaction, team reputation, revenue, etc). You've also got massive egos in play on that front so it can get personal. Mind you, I do accept that there are "fire sales" in order to build for the future, but even those have consequences. They don't exactly guarantee success either. Poorly run teams often just wind up in the same circumstance a few years down the road. Sorry gus, but my tinfoil hat just hasn't fit me for quite a while.
