Prem run in

So I make that....

City v Palace Fri 22 May
Palace v Arsenal Sun 24 May

Time for some mischief before Leipzig.
I saw those dates on some Facebook post but can't find confirmation of it anywhere else. Can't believe we'd agree to play the 2 top teams just 48 hours apart

It’s not been arranged yet it’s just been put there on the BBC fixtures list for somewhere to fit it. Still says postponed. On the CPFC website it says date tbc. There won’t be a good time to fit it in given how many games we’ve got left. If we get to the final, we have the option to field a second team against both City & against Arsenal then who can say it’s unfair.

I reckon it will be Thursday May 21st. As already mentioned put a second string out in both games. Of course we’re all anticipating we will be in the Conference final, which may not be the case.

The most likely date based on City getting to the cup final. If City were to lose to Southampton this weekend then we could well play the game on Wednesday 13th May.

I think Arsenal will be so glad we will be knackered this Man city will be pissed off

Thus Man city will have no choice but to go All Out

Yet I’m struggling to see where we get a win from the last few games - our shots rate is not good
Against West Ham it seemed like a few guys are afraid to shoot from inside or Outside of the box

Ty ran a superb run into West Ham box & seemed to panic ,Lerma wouldn’t shoot outside of box.
(makes me wonder if Glasner instructed them not to shoot from outside )

The starts need to have Sarr & Wharton on the pitch to get goals in 1st half as we go to sleep for first 10 mins 2nd half

I hope I’m completely wrong but it’s hard to see a win out of any last Prem Games - could be 14th to 16th finish & Europe is all out go for wins at all costs
 
Anyway you look at it, its going to be a messy end to the season.

The FA need to take a look at themselves (which they wont). As we stand out 2 biggest games of the season semi 2nd leg, and final (hopefully), have not been protected. May other FA's move fixtures around to help teams with European games.

They have also put themselves in a position where 2 games that might decide the title, are likely to be played against reserve teams. Surely we cant/wont be risking most of our team in the last 2 league games?!

Thankfully, we have points on the board, so can try to manage the remaining fixtures as much as possible. It does feel however that its more important to get something from Anfield, they are beatable and after that, the come thick and fast.
