Haha me too.
Love Antonio, hate Moyes but decent club & supporters. Shitty owners too though.

Probably not. But the Hammers win gives them the merest glimmer of hope. If Watford somehow come back and win this (highly unlikely), they'd have been as good as down tonight.
Why? Watford and West Ham started the game on 34 points. The worst result would be a draw and then either team winning is the same for them. Villa will want Watford to win tonight as they play West Ham on the last day of the season.

I was looking at Watford. They'd have gone on to 37 pts. Villa and Bournemouth are both on 31, with two games to go. And both have an inferior GD to Watford.Why?

Goal difference plays a huge part though and West Ham, even before tonight, were +12 on Villa. With both teams playing United and Arsenal respectively next then it would be highly unlikely that a mere win would have done for Villa on the last day.Why?

Whereas with Watford playing us and Arsenal last two matches and the goal difference being +6 on Villa (before tonight) then a decent West Ham win does them best really. Especially if it means West Ham are safe going into the last game of the season too.
What this result would do though, if it stays a two goal margin even, would give Bournemouth the best chance imo; Southampton (H) and Everton (A) for them.

What’s our record like at Vicarage Road? Their goal difference may well be worse before the last game.

It's pretty traumatic, from a Watford viewpoint. I never like taking a City win for granted though!What’s our record like at Vicarage Road? Their goal difference may well be worse before the last game.

We’ll only play half a team, so don’t think it’ll be a rout.

Agreed. Cups are our priority now. Has to be. Pretty much full strength tomorrow, then the squad players for Vicarage Rd.We’ll only play half a team, so don’t think it’ll be a rout.

Especially Zinchenko as Mendy is banned for Madrid.
