League games [Merged]

[Beefymcfc]

The way our players need to think is, exerting themselves now for the last two games allows them a longer Summer from not having to play the qualifying games- let alone the fact we avoid a potentially really difficult game if we take 3rd. As long as Villa hold on I really do believe we'll snatch it. Imagine, the way results have gone, if we'd beaten Everton we'd be eyeing up 2nd spot right now.

Party atmosphere Tuesday night, I'm in no doubt we'll beat Stoke. We've done them 3-0 and 2-0 in the last two seasons at home, we'll be fine. Then Sunday will be a fucking buzz. COME ON!

I'm not sure about the 'longer Summer' mate as I'm sure Spurs played their qualifier in the first week of the season, after we played them. I know where you're coming from though.

For me, they should be thinking that we are now one of the elite and that 3rd spot should've been the minimum requirement for such classy and well paid players. They should be on a high from what we've already achieved and I'm so glad that Carlos is still within shouting distance of the Golden Boot, he should be all out to get it.

Didn't know that mate, I was under the impression it was the back end of July for some reason- must be getting mixed up with the Europa. Speaking of which- remember us playing in the Faroe Islands? Vassell and Hamann scoring. Seems like a million years ago! Suppose what I meant as well though was that it'd give us all one less thing worry about- they still would probably be in a week earlier I imagine in preparation for the qualifier than they would be without it. Maybe not though. It'd just be fantastic to know, this time next week, that we're 100% in the group stages.

I think that's the whole point of it mate, we'd still be thinking 'Typical City' and we'd be on pins.

Brummies away to spurs next weekend. I could see them going down

Is anyone watching this game?

BBC stats say Arsenal have had 20 shots and Villa 7. Sounds like a good game but Arsenal finishing has surely never been so poor.

It'd be an awesome weekend if it finished with a chance of us getting 3rd as well. make our chances of signing top players even better if the group stages were guaranteed.

Come on Villa hold out..... or better still score another couple!
