The Top Five Race 2024-25 (poll added)

[Legal Alien]

Arteta is mental if he doesn't play a complete reserve 11. But you’ll probably see Saka, Rice, Saliba the idiot

Yeah but they've gone from cruising in 2nd to having us (and Newcastle) on their tail.

They've got a big week coming up and they go to the dippers next weekend.

Opta saying one more win for City probably does it given rival’s fixtures but you never know.

Forest v Chelsea on final day

 

[supercity88]

One more win and it's job done in my opinion. Would be nice not to need anything from the final two as they're potentially quite tricky. Would be even nicer to be at Southampton, lift the FA Cup then sit back and watch our rivals fail on the Sunday to assure us of the CL place.

2nd in now a realistic aim

 

[SkyBlueFlux]

We are now about four times more likely to come second than finish outside the top five (though both are quite unlikely).

According to the statisticians.

Arsenal fans would be broken forever if we win the fa cup and finish second

 

[marco]

after the weekend i think a win and a draw, there all going to drop more points

If they go all the way in the CL, doubt they care.

They won’t be “norf lundun forever”

Arsenal will get rolled over in Paris.

Arsenal will get rolled over in Paris.

Fingers crossed ;)

Think Forest are our best chance of a top 5 rival dropping points this weekend

or even more fun the tarquins drop points v bournemouth, newcastle and the scousers and finish 4th below us and the geordies

98.44% after yesterday’s win.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Fulham, Bournemouth and Brighton in their own fight for a (potential) European place. Arsenal, Villa and Newcastle aren't guaranteed points this weekend. In fact I'd go so far to say at least one will drop points.

That's not great for us really if we have top 5 wrapped up by the last game.
We can't put the kids out if there is something riding on it for fulham

 

[skiddypants]

One more win and it'll be done next Saturday.

 

[Cobwebcat]

The money we will get from being in the CL and the CWC…..a lot.

 

[Tbilisi]

IF we win the Cup then Bournemouth and Fulham will have 8th place to play for so we need a win at Southampton to take the pressure off a bit.
