The battle for 3rd place

I think the FA have to get a special dispensation from UEFA to play on the same night as CL.
Nope. They are meant to but they've just been pressing ahead in this season. We've already played on a CL game night if I'm not mistaken and UEFA were pissed off. The FA expect to get a fine at the end of the season.

What I meant was "supposed to get".

We have indeed played on a CL night, and I think it was even televised, so obviously someone decided to just get on with it, I doubt it was City though.

We win three games no problem.........of course you just know City being City it just isn't going to be that straightforward.

2 wins from 3 will do it...unless Arsenal overhaul a 7 goal deficit

I couldn't make up my mind whether I wanted Arsenal to win tonight. Ideally I want Arsenal 4th and CIty 3rd with Liverpool and Utd on the outside. That will happen if City win 2 of 3, Arsenal win their 3 games, and Liverpool draw at West Ham.
 
Need to win at on Saturday. I think we will be there if we do that. Hopefully Pool will find WHU away tough. Arsenal did well to get 6/6 off their last 2 games.
 
One more win should see it done with our goal difference. Obviously we want to win both the games to secure 3rd place.

West Brom and Watford lingering at the bottom of the form table for last 5 games, should take 6 points here
