Man City beaten by Burnley today, looks like they’re on the slide, and Arsenal win 3 - 0 to go within one point of taking second place off them. Who would bet against them doing it either? But is it bad news for us? We have yet to Play Arsenal, and they look like a side hitting top form. Can we beat or draw with them and take out United the week before, to land that 4th place? I think it’s definitely on. What do you guys think?

It's in our own hands as we have both utd and the arse to play but it is still a big ask.
It's going to be a nail biting end to the season and I wouldn't rule spuds out either.
City haven't been great this year and Pellegrini is a dead man walking.
A draw tomorrow and then a win for us Mon night would definitely help.

The Arse look like a team in form alright, but so do we. Get Danny back up to speed and we could be sitting 4th or even challenging for 3rd by the end of April, or else I just jinxed it.
Manu play Spurs and then us, this is their April...
Man Utd v Aston Villa
Man Utd v Man City
Chelsea v Man Utd
Everton v Man Utd
We play Swans then Manu, this is our April
Arsenal v Liverpool
FA Cup - Sixth Round
Blackburn v Liverpool
Liverpool v Newcastle
Hull v Liverpool Sat 18 Apr
West Brom v Liverpool

I'm not thinking about Arsenal at the moment, they are in great form for sure but for me, a win at Swansea is the most important thing right now. It won't be easy as Swans play very good football with very technical players so hopefully we can squeeze a win. Spurs and Southampton are still in the race, I won't rule any of them out especially if they can squeeze wins tonight. Its a very competitive battle and we need to keep winning to stay in it.
Back to Back World Champions baby!

Yeah definitely nail biting, and as you say Spuds are not to be underestimated either. I can't make up mu mind whether I want a draw between them and United today, I suppose being United I'll go for Spuds! If we don't slip up tomorrow it will be on!

We seem to have it easier than the scum in April. It'll all come down to our game against them. Beat them and we'll replace them in the top four.

Yeah and if Spuds beat them today and as you say we beat them that should put paid to their season and top four, then its a race between Us and spuds and Arsenal for 3rd or 4th, Always depending on us beating those we should beat along the way on the run in. It’s far from a given but it’s on.
