How the above fixturs can affect us (thanks, /u/D1794)

  • Leicester are now uncatchable!
  • Spurs have Stoke away
  • Arsenal have Palace at home.
  • City go away to Chelsea
  • West Ham go away to leaders Leicester.
  • Southampton go away to Everton.
  • We cannot climb the table, we can only reduce the gap to 1 point behind City if Chelsea win.
  • We can drop to 7th if West Ham and Southampton win and we lose. A draw for us and a win for West Ham knocks us to 6th.

A little competition!

The first comment to this post will be one by myself prompting you to list your predictions for results of the matches today (apart from ours - use Going for Gold for that). Lets see if someone gets all the predictions spot on. There might be scope for some prizes in the future.

Note: To make it fair, the predictions can be edited until the kick off of the first game (so for this one it's 12:45 on Saturday 16th, April 2016).

Thank you, can't stand those rival threads popping up when they're 1-0 down anymore

Part of the reason I've put away some time to do this weekly. I enjoy discussing general football with fellow United fans than /r/soccer, to be honest!

An entirely undeserved but welcome massive golden opportunity this weekend. Chelsea are one of the few teams that are slight favourites against City at home and if we can't beat a non-team like Villa, we don't even deserve qualifying for Europa League next year. If things go our way this weekend, we are right up City's arse! (OK, that came out a bit odd)

Massive game for Sunderland as well. If Norwich win, it could look as if all 3 relegation teams -bar near miracles- are decided.

Agreed! I feel like Chelsea can really do us a favour here but we have to capitalise....

where have I heard that before?

Secondly, please reply to this if you have any feedback for the future formatting of this thread, or any mistakes I have made in the current one. Thanks!

I was thinking that as we're a Manchester United subreddit, we should make a discussion threads only for games that are relevant to us (i.e. all premier league games and competitions we're in) and special games i.e Europa & Champions League finals and International competitions. What do you all think?

[–]mu_37Schneiderlin 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

for those who don't know,we actually might play Vila already relegated if Norwich avoids defeat today,or we might be the ones who relegate them if we don't lose

Not surprised. Villa have been so poor this season.

[–]swaggleDoreGriezman 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

For those who play fantasy league, do points from both matches get added this week?

[–]awiyum[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I believe it's a double gameweek, but don't quote me! source

[–]arvindedditMartial 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hopefully Chelsea can do us a favour. If all goes well we'll be one point behind City by the end of tonight! Leicester beating West Ham would be great too

[–]tim1901De Gea 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

So does anyone think Chelsea can beat City?

[–]awiyum[S] 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

Mourinho's Chelsea, yes. Hiddink's maybe.
