Thread: Can we hold on to 6th?

  1. #1

    Can we hold on to 6th?

    I never thought we were going to finish 4th, we had a good start, considering the World Cup it was a false position. We are in 6th now with current form and Chelsea likely to put a run together can we hang on to 6th?

    Does six place get you into the Europa league?

    i think 6th has to be the target, it qualifies us for the conference league, once upon a time, if Man Utd finished in the CL places, we would get their place in the europa league taking their Carabao cup winners place. I dont think this applies anymore though.

    We have played all the big boys away, the next 2 games are ***** for us to make changes and turn the corner and get back on track.

    Targett, Gordon and Isak need to be starting

    I doubt we can hold on, and yes I think 6 th gets you into the Europa. We need to show Hugh improvement in front of goal to stay where we are.

    I think, at the moment, 6th would be a Europa Conference spot. But, if the FA Cup is won by a team in the top 6, then 6th would get the Europa League place...I think.

    I expect us to get out of this rut now and finish 5th behind Ars*nal, Liverpool and the 2 Mancs.

    With our games in hand 6th is certainly in our own hands we just need Eddie Howe to swallow his pride and drop non performers like Wilson Longstaff Almiron and Burn and bring in genuine quality like Isak Targett Gordon and the Saint.

    Could be down to 7th tonight if Fulham win. Need a draw or Brentford win.

    I'd like CL or no Europa at all. We would really struggle unless we can add some more players.

    If we can start to get goals again CL is still on, a couple of wins and the tails will be back up.

    I just hope it will be Europa League and not Conference League next season. I honestly never thought we would make it to Champions League this year, but it's been a fun ride!
