We needed a big result against Forest in the 2nd leg.  I'd say we got one wouldn't you?

It reminded me of the Arsenal away game in the year we came 4th. One final hurrah before we plunged off the cliff.

We beat Bournemouth 3-0 in the following game, drew with Chelsea in the next and after losing at Brighton there was the epic 3-3 with Liverpool. I could live with that.

Even if Citeh best Bournemouth - Brighton can pip us if they win both their winnable two games.
We need get a point v Liverpool or win in Istanbul.

Leeds away and Man Utd aren't easy games to need 6 points from.

Have more faith in Leeds. Brighton always beat Manure.

Think it was 3-1 v Bournemouth, I seem to recall they went one up via a penalty.

Leeds will want one last hurrah for the home fans you suspect. Manure could well be playing a very weakened team, especially as their senior internationals will be looking at the WC now.

Weird things happen on the last day but it'll all be sorted by then.

You can trust Moyesy with Everton. They win at Spurs.

Yep, Moyes isn't big on letting them hit the beach early.  See their result at Newcastle on the last day last season - they did their bit, while the ref/VAR was screwing us over in Manchester.

Plus there's the fact that he was West Ham manager prior to taking over at Everton.

Everton still going for Europe, too. If they beat Sunderland and Man City win the cup, they definitely have a chance going into the final game.

West Ham are playing two teams who should see Spurs as rivals and should lose on purpose. Spurs are playing two teams who should see Spurs as rivals and will be motivated to beat them.

There should be no one who sees spurs as a bigger rival than us. What happened there?

Gibbs White back for Forest. That is good news for when they meet Bournemouth last day.

And hopefully keen to show that he should be in the World Cup squad.

We were resting up for the semi-final.
