    Title ends here - this week.

    If we drop points & Goons lose gift wrap the title to Spuds ffs.
    City losing at Boro will mean Boro will be up against us.
    Goons losing can let Jose lose to Spuds.

    Butterfly effect.

    We shouldn't drop points today to keep pressure on, Spuds, Jose & Others.
    Looks simple for us, but too much pressure at the same time.

    Well Stan that 3-0 win at Everton was the title clincher.

    yes mate, we are closer.

    But we cannot take foot off the pedal yet.

    Next 2 games Boro & West Brom away are tricky.
    West Brom are on a slide and will want to dent.
    Pulis always does that against the potential champions.

    Watford & Sunderland are on the beach but those are the last 2 games.
    How I wish the run-in fixtures are swapped. oh well.

    US 8pts likely
    ----------------------
    Boro - Difficult relegation team
    West Brom (Away) - Tony pulis S#1ts in title run in always
    Watford - Beach boys, but Derby
    Sunderland - Championship boys, will give a good go


    Spuds 12 pts guaranteed.
    -------------------------------------
    Spammers (Away) - Beach boys
    Manu - Jose to do us in, one last time
    Leicester (Away) - Only challenge for Spuds. Hope Lester are motivated for all the S#!t Spuds gave them.
    Hull (Away) - Either relegated or survived by then. 3 pts to Spuds.

    Pretty even there - to be precise Spuds have more banker 3 points than we do.
    Even refs are helping Spuds cheat with decisions like today's blatant Kane dive.
    All to play for. This could be ****ing 2012 with GD deciding the title.
    With our potential 8 points to Spuds 12 points - our GD will be inferior. I farking hate 2012...

    Again, Stan, you are assuming that Spurs won't drop points. To even keep pace they must win all remaining games. They need us to draw and lose from our last 4 games to go level.
    One loss for Spurs and it's all over for them. United will not roll over for them, especially as Jose is old Chelsea. He's a wild card and won't want to lose any more face than he already has this season.
    If I'm honest the Everton game was the real worry for me and we smashed it. Your desire to see Ake step up came and he bossed it.
    We have a team of winners. Spurs don't. The pressure is showing big time for them whilst we seem to be business as usual.
    I'll make a deal with you. Should we go on to win the league, next season you have to be more open minded about stuff.

    I don't know how everyone can consider we have easier run in on paper.

    Let me give you my perspective - on paper we have difficult schedule.

    We play next 3 games in 7 days.
    Spuds play next 3 games in 13 days.


    This is ridiculous in the business end of the season.

    Also - we have 3 tricky fixtures crammed into 1 week.
    Spuds have 3 straight forward fixtures and some gifts (Jose) spread across 2 weeks.

    I will make Spuds favorites given these scenarios, especially Spuds have ZERO pressure & we have ALL the pressure to win.

    We might play 3 games in 7 days but at this rage of the season I'm sure that the players will be keen to keep the momentum. We've been affected by long breaks between games this season.

    Look at it this way. We have 3 games in 1 week, which means we could have the title wrapped up this week and Spurs have zero say in it.

    Agreed far easier to keep a winning momentum going.

    Indeed.
    And its not like our players have been burnt out because of European football this season.
    We have played probably 10-15 games less than everyone else in the top 6 (Bar Liverpool).

    So us playing Watford is a derby but you don't factor this in for West Ham and Spurs.....

    United have barely lost a game all year and a draw would help us no end.

    Leicester can turn it on at home.

    Hull may need points to stay up.

    Never known someone so bloody negative. <laugh>

    Spurs will drop points.

    And...this is the Spurs you've been dismissing all year as title contenders!!

    At least you've dropped the 'it's Jose's to lose' nonsense!! .

    It's actually getting to the point where I am starting to think he is HIAG playing the long con.
    Starting a Chelsea account all them years ago and just sitting there, ready to strike.

    I called 2013-15 - both seasons, title was ours to lose even before a ball was kicked.
    That Negativity??

    I just call things the way I see it.

    If you think a title is anyone's to lose before a ball is kicked, that's not positivity or negativity. It's nonsense.

    I think the next two games will be pivotal - Squeaky bottom time as Sir Alex put it.

    Exactly - Boro & West Brom will decide the fate. We need 6 points, atleast 4 points.
    I see - Spuds getting minimum 10 points from last 4 games.
    Everybody is ready to give 3 points to them - except Leicester probably.


    Already Jose implying, that he will do everything to gift Spuds the game & title <doh>

    I think you're underestimating joses ego. He doesn't manage for the sake of the club or the team. He does it for himself. The team is simply a tool to help him achieve his success. Look how quickly he turned against Chelsea last season.

    There is no way he will allow, what he sees as, an inferior manager to take the spot light from him. United will do us a big favour here.

    Could be irrelevant. He could be out of the Europa league before the Spurs game anyway so will have to win at WHL to keep top 4 alive going into last 2 games.

    If he makes the final he may rest players and that's his prerogative. Risky though as he could lose the final.
