Beat Ipswich Monday we will be. Arsenal then travel to Brentford. 

yes, but if Maresca doesn't make the right changes at the right time, it can soon be a memory and a proper fight for the 4th spot, or is it 5th this sesaon?

As things stand I believe 5th. 

Nonetheless, we should realistically now be achieving 3rd at the lowest.

Arsenal scored just one from all those chances? Shesh.

Think we'll do lucky to get a point on Monday. The confidence has gone.

If it is, then I will be questioning the mentality of our players. It's 1 draw and 1 defeat. All of the teams around us have had similar results at some point this season.

This isn't a red card offence apparently. The refs in this country are thick as pig sh*t. If he makes contact, it's a broken nose at the very least.

Tbf, during the calendar year we are the 4th best team behind City, Arsenal and Pool which makes sense.

City having such a sh*t season so far bumped us a spot above.

You can commit assault as long as no contact is made apparently. 

So Saka out h til March it appears. They didn’t waste any time with surgery on his hamstring. Makes you wonder what might have been had Reece taken quicker action, but probably oversimplifying the situation with that thought.

It was surgeons' advice that James initially didn't need surgery. Damned if you do, etc.

The only mystery with Saka is how his issue hasn't happened sooner. Arteta has flogged him.

f**k off Everton. 
 

Play blinders against us, Arsenal & City and are now losing at home to Forrest. 
 

We are currently 4th. 

Forest are very impressive. Reminds me a bit of ourselves 15 years ago this season so have bit of a softespot for them this year.

Yeah Forest are no joke this season.

Looks like Forest are indeed this seasons Villa. No European football so able to maintain players and have a good run.

Spurs and City winning as well.

0-2 Forest. Game done, they are dominating Everton, who have not had a shot yet.

Has been good seeing Villa in the CL, and would be good to have Forest there next season, imo. Something different. 

Credit to them for doing what we failed to do.

Annoying that Everton roll over for Forest. 

Broja has championship written all over him. 

So are the media gonna start a 'Forest in the title race' agenda yeah?

You'd have to say that back-to-back away victories without conceding a goal at Brentford and Everton is an impressive achievement. As is 5 wins in a row. 

The sort of run that we could do with getting back to ... 

 

Down to 4th, City only 4 points behind. So important that we bounce back with a win tomorrow.

Forest just better mate.

The luck these scouse bellends get is unreal.

If Salah don't get you, Diaz does, or Jota, or even Nunez. 

Imagine if Forest carry on this run and become the side closest to them, that would be something.

0-2.

Kudus hits the post, Gakpo gods down the other end and scores.

Champions.

Just give the Scouse the title now. The enjoyment this season is going to be the bottom half finish for both Utd & Spuds.

If we don’t win tomorrow then the Top 4 becomes a bit more of a race…

 

Yeah, they're gonna run away with this. Salah is currently having the best season of his career, the whole team looks really well balanced.
