No, CL's going to Germany. Bayern, Dortmund, Leverkusen all SF's. So we really need City to win the FA Cup, else we're in the crappy Conference.
It's not inconceivable that we could take near maximum points from that run of fixtures... Last season I'd have felt more confident about it... We're (seemingly) coming into a bit of form and (hopefully) have stopped leaking stupid goals, so who knows. Would be some effort if we did it. Realistically though, just finishing above those absolute ****es from the NW would be a great result for this season, all thins considered.
You never know... Eddie and the lads might just surprise you and go undefeated. It's more likely we pick up a couple of injuries to key players and stumble across the line TBH, but precisely as I said, it's not inconceivable that we can beat every single one of those sides. Doing it in consecutive fixtures will clearly be unlikely.
It's a longshot for sure but think I've mentioned it before - Howe's finishes to seasons while he's been here have been phenomenal! 12 points should be enough for Europe of some sort 13-14 good for 6th place and Europa League 15-18 possible 5th!
If we want 6th, we're going to have to go up to old trafford and get at least a draw, simple as. That will likely be a decider. Manure could do us a favour and relegate sheffield, so they'll be mathematically doomed before they play us so they'll have nothing to play for. Burnley away will be harder.
