It's not really changed the picture that much to be honest, it's obviously not a great result but it is 1 point closer to qualifying - we were overwhelming favourites and we still are. We're unlikely to now canter across the line as effortlessly, I thought we could qualify this weekend, and we will now have to find a few points somewhere else or hope for some missed opportunities by the teams around us (not unlikely).

The main thing it's changed is our chances of 2nd. Arsenal would have to lose two games, and we win both of ours, there's no other maths that really works.

Could do with Villa dropping points, then Newcastle battering Chelsea.

yeh looks like we have to surrender a spot so a newcastle win i think
 
A Bournemouth win tonight would mean we're basically guaranteed top six because of Villa's goal difference, and one of Forest or Chelsea are guaranteed to drop points on the last day. Think the other teams are just running out of games.

It's not 1 point closer.
Before the game we needed 2 wins. We still need 2 wins.
 
Today was a huge screw up. We now have no room for a slip. Bournemouth was always going to be tough a few days after the cup final but that and Fulham are now must win.

It’s also a concern we’ve been poor in our last 3 league matches. Winning late against Villa, saved by the woodwork against Wolves and toothless against Southampton.

We do not want a Newcastle and Chelsea draw, that is the worst possible result for us...

Yep, I’m going for a Chelsea win. Newcastle away at Arsenal next weekend and Chelsea are playing United who won’t give a single fuck. If Villa drop points tonight, today’s result isn’t a major disaster, as Chelsea and Forest player each other last game so one of them drops points.
 
all rivals playing now two times before we play another PL game.

I bet none of them expected us not to beat might Soton.

a draw and a win should do it,if villa lose later they wont be catching us as we would have to lose both
 
It's so hard to care anymore after watching that

The way i feel now I couldn't careless whether we qualify or not, but no doubt I'll regret that in August
