Can't see us making 4th.
Rags have a far easier run in and only the Spurs and West Ham games look tricky for them.
Conversely we have 4 tricky games vs Saints, Chelsea, Newcastle and Chelsea.
Realistically its probably gonna be 2 defeats in them.
It's hard to feel optimistic when we've been so erratic and inconsistent.

United do still have to play Tottenham and Leicester and West Ham and United have to play each other too.

We win six of our remaining seven and it should be enough.

We might get away with five.

Hard but doable.

We have Chelsea, Arsenal, Stoke and Southampton. We hate playing Arsenal, Chelski and Stoke. I'd even wager that Spurs are going to be in the fight for 4th.

It will be enough if we do that but that would take some doing based on what we have shown his season.

I can't see West Ham doing it. A lot depends on next week game with Rags and Spurs. If the rags win it brings sspurs back into play
 
Tottenham are more catchable than Arsenal as they have played a game more and a worse run in than us.

United, West Brom and Southampton at home - Stoke and Chelsea away before ending at Newcastle.

So I agree it is a win/win next week whatever the result between Spurs and United.
 
Next games are Rags and Spurs, Arse and West Ham. Hopefully draws all around. Going to be a big day that.
 
Next set of fixtures:

West Ham vs Arsenal
Man City vs West Brom
Spurs vs Man Utd

That set of fixtures alone should give us some breathing room and drag team/s ahead of us back into it.
