Weekend games - May the 4th be with you...

To be fair, if we can't beat two relegation-threatened teams, then we don't deserve to play in the Champions League.

Exactly this mate

balls back in our court now

spot on was out of our hands b4 the game but slight advantage to us

Benayoun wtf there goes 4th. Nice while it lasted.

Fat f**king Spanish waiter

1 more goal and the beers are on you son!!

No f**king beers....£10 out of pocket because Benitez screwed me.

I mean Oscar for Fat Frank maybe but Benayoun. He gave two f**king fouls away within mins that nearly cost a winning goal

The Chavs paying 50 million quid for Torres has got to be the funniest thing that's happened in the history of the game. The guy is at a level of shitness that is impossible to fathom. He's now played over 18 hours since he last scores in the league. What was the point in signing Ba if you're not going to play him in front of fanny boy??

[LDB]

Phew

Chelsea were blowing out their arses by the end there. To be honest that result is possibly better then a chav win. Win our two games against bottom 4 sides and we make it but with that result we have an outside shot at snatching third off the chavs.

This. You don't realise just how shit he is until you end up by circumstance wanting the chavs to win. Powderpuff would be an insult to genuine powderpuff strikers.

people do realise we now have to shout for stoke at the weekend

That's united, Chavs and now Stoke ill have been rooting for in the past week. It all feels a bit sordid really.

Why?

Chelsea have dopped 5pts v QPR and couldn't beat Reading away. Whereas Sp*rs dropped 5pts vs. Wigan, dropped 4pts vs Norwich and lost at QPR, so how does that fit in with your logic about which of the 3 teams "deserves" to miss out?

Surely the only important thing is to finish with more points after 38 games?; where you collect those points is irrelevant. To start weighting some games over others in an arbitrary manner is surely clouding a very simple equation i.e. most points = most deserving! (controversial, I know )

[Dan_85]

I'm a natural pessimist, I hope i'm wrong, but I just can't see us getting 6pts from our two games. Have you watched us recently? We are absolute garbage.

Plus we've ridden our luck for too long with regards to scraping into the CL; dodgy lasagnes, Marton Fulop. It's gonna bite us on the arse eventually & it'll be no-one's fault other than Wenger & Gazidis.

I don't understand why they persevere with him.

It has got to be the Russian's doing.

It's not like Ba is injured. The almost one on one chance Torres had in the dying mins, Ba would have f**king buried it not falling over.

These 2 should've wrapped up 3rd and 4th ages ago. I'm actually more f**ked off that they've given us hope .

I was happy with 5th, even thought we'd end up 6th a few months ago.

It looks more than likely the scummy wankers 17yr wait to finish above us will finally be here on 19th May.

AW has come full circle....wish we'd have a change.

Matter of interest. does 5th have to do a pre-qualifying round for Europa or do we go straight into the groups in September. You would think that with our seeding making us 5th in UEFA coefficient that we would just go straight through to the group stages

Fixed that for you.

A simply woeful striker. I can't believe watching that game that this fella was once a world class striker. Fucking abysmal.

I'd rather have Giroud upfront and that says a lot.
