We are very reminiscent of what we looked like at the start of the season - no ideas and feeling sorry for ourselves. We will continue to be this abject until we do something different and show some intent.

Unfortunately it's difficult to see now. Form is terrible. Unai needs to make some bold decisions and shake things up, but I'm worried that he will stick rather than twist. Need Arsenal to beat Chelsea and then somehow pull out a performance against Chelsea on Wed. Amazingly that would be a 9 points gap. So all hope is not lost.

It’s a straw, I’m clinging to it.

No...and if we carry on like tonight for much longer, someone could be changing this thread to 'Will we qualify for Europe?'

Yes, we’ll still do it.

I'm not there yet, but it all hinges on Wednesday now and that's assuming Arsenal beat Chelsea.

If we carry on as we have been the last few weeks then we'd be lucky to hold onto 6th. The straw to clutch at is SJM and Tielemans returning, but there's every chance it's too late by then regardless.

No, we're done. The midfield won't be back quick enough. We have no threat out wide, the centre forward is shot and through the middle we're pedestrian and lack a killer ball without Tielemans and McGinn's drive. We've been very patchy all season and eeked loads of 1 goal wins without playing well.

Was it not the other day people were saying that four teams below us would have to put together title-winning runs to finish ahead of us and that not all of them could possibly do that? In that case, we're gonna be fine!
