On current form, it would have been hard to beat Chelsea

Man.U beat Luton in their next game they’re 3 pts behind us and on much better form.
I can easily see them finishing above us tbh.
I think it’ll be tight between us, Villa and Utd for 4/5/6 and there will be twists and turns to come.

Yeah. All 3 teams are very inconsistent so impossible to say where the chips will fall.

Yep, we definitely need to turn our results around quickly if we want 4th.

We could.
We could also beat Palace fairly comfortably in two weeks’ time, and laughing off Villa/Utd results.

for me, i think our space for top 4 is more threatened by Man Utd than Villa. They have had a lot of stick this season, but they have had a fair few late goals, like us, that have given them draws and wins. They have won about their last 4 games, and have Hojlund now scoring as well. 4th-6th is anyone's guess, but the top 3 is set now i reckon.

This aged wellIf Liverpool don't win today and we do does that mean we're in the title race 'again'

Yep, this season is annoying but also has loads of positives.This aged well
We started off really well and without European football and going out early in the domestic cups it looked like we could punch above our weight in the league.
I don't think we'll get top 4 now.

I think that 1-2 has gone now and 3rd would need a bit of a miracle. 4th is still all to play for, IMO, but obvs we need to turn things around quickly

4th is still achievable but like you say, we need to turn things around quickly. I just see us hiccupping too many times for us to do it.

I think we'll probably finish 6th. Man Utd will likely reel us in in the next few games and I can see Villa hanging onto top 5. That run of games we have in April will probably see off out challenge for CL. But you never know. It'll be interesting to see what Ange can do. Europa League qualification would be respectable for a first season.
We don't really deserve to be fighting for a European spot at all but we have got around 15 more points than we deserve. That leaves us on 47 points and around 62 is usually enough for Europe. Thus 5 wins from 13 games should be achievable but not if we keep playing like we have been for some weeks. There's an awful lot to do on the training pitch in this 2 week break.
We're nowhere near good enough for the Champions' League so I'd rather not be in it.
