Top 4 Race 2020/21

[Maly]

Nope, Liverpool have it to lose

If Liverpool win both their games they finish on 69

Let's just assume chelsea and Leicester win their game not against each other, they will have 69 and 67 and have each other to play

If Chelsea win they will have 70 and Leicester will be level on 69 with Liverpool but have inferior GD so Liverpool get top 4

If Leicester win, Liverpool will have 69 and Chelsea 67

If its a Draw, Leicester have 70 and Chelsea have 68, so Liverpool come 4th

Basically, unless Leicester smash Tottenham 10-0, they need to just not drop points to qualify

Liverpool & Leicester both have +21 GD mate

So let me get this straight...
- No foul free kick for Salah’s equaliser
- Chalked off 2nd Brom goal cause......well feck knows
- Liverpool corner with 20s left, and we wait for Allison to do her hair and amble up for the corner to score
(West Brom defending was ass)

That what I just saw?

Does anyone think it might benefit us Chelsea missing out instead of Liverpool? I see chelsea as our biggest threat next season and our rival for signings so maybe it might help if they are dumped in Europa.

I think the same.

Chelsea get top 4 and I think they will be more likely to splash the cash. Maybe rival us for trying for Haaland?

Lets face it. Operation 'get the Dipper's in the top 4' is inevitable given that the PL is watched by millions of Scandinavian and American Dippers fans, and I'm certain UEFA will want a piece of the action when it comes to showing their games.

Liverpool & Leicester both have +21 GD mate

But they lose to Chelsea so they'd have at most +20 and Liverpool would have +22 min if they win midweek

If Chelsea finish 5th and somehow beat us in the champions league final they don’t get in anyway, every cloud.

Yeah, it’s a slim to non-existent hope, but it may come down to if Burnley can get something against them midweek.

If Chelsea miss out in top 4, it will give them an even bigger incentive to win CL

Yep, they’ve also scored 2 more than Liverpool at the mo, so it’s going to go right down to the wire, but it highly unlikely Leicester will have to win 10 nil. It’s gonna be extremely close. Looking forward to seeing how it all develops

Possibly, but I'm not sure if it works like that psychologically. Kinda like how in the playoffs, the team who just scrapes in at the last game often does better than the team who narrowly misses out on automatic promotion.
