Not sure about that. Can't see Chelsea getting much more than 10-12 points, and at least 13-15 points should be within our grasp.

Wins against Southampton, Fulham and Tottenham, draws against Newcastle and Bournemouth and two defeats in Manchester, as usual, doesn't seem unreasonable.

As long as that’s with an 8th FA Cup and a 2nd European Cup you’re forgiven.

Also I think we’re going to win at Manchester Coty for the first time since Noah was a lad.

Just the European Cup, I'm afraid. I'm more confident of beating PSG than Crystal sodding Palace.

CD, funny, I messaged my cousin in Brum those exact words after the draw.

Maybe the premier league gets its house in order,  and sorts the point deduction for Man City before the end of the season.

"Would you want to get a CL spot on the back of another team getting a point deduction though?"

Too bloody right I would

Hear hear. Those cheating bastards deserve every single bit of what’s coming to them.  Will it be enough, probably not but I’ll be cheering whatever it is.

Absolutely. Particularly if it's fucking Man City. Their cheating has involved them stealing our best players on four separate occasions. They owe us more than anybody.

Newcastle at home and Man City away will be tough coming so soon after the PSG home game. I can imagine that PSG game taking a lot out of us emotionally and physically. At least Newcastle have a game as well, as I thought they would have a clear week to prepare for it. 

I think we have an extra night off before we play Newcastle (our return leg against PSG is next Tues while they play on the Weds) while the Citeh game is also now on a Tuesday with both teams having played the previous Sat.

Personally I don’t think that will be enough to get a top five finish, unless Man City are docked points.

His prediction with those results has us finishing seventh.

Pretty sure my table will prove to be accurate.

Spoiler for Hiden:
Because I will keep updating it after each set of results so eventually it ends up being correct by default.
