    Fair play to them, mind. The've maintained a strong challenge on 3 fronts whilst having to cope with the Champions League. They made 8 changes today and still beat the team 3rd in the league.

    You'd think that one of these 3 would be a step too far and our hope is that it's the league where they fall down.

    It's a big challenge to maintain levels on all 3 fronts. PSG are the bets version I've seen of them this season. They're best bet of silverware this season is the FA cup. Emre rotated well against Forest and demonstrated the quality in the depth of their squad. Something we aspire to.

    The deeper they go in both cup competitions the better it is for us. We'll play Villa between Champions league home and away legs if they get past PSG.

    Either way, they have momentum as we do, however, We will have fresher legs playing less matches.

    Again it's up to the players and Eddie to find a way to beat them. Wins or draws at Brighton & Villa away will absolutely secure Champions League football.

    Meanwhile, away from the politics, Fulham have just pulled off the result of the weekend by beating Liverpool.

    Great result for us at Brentford, with Chelsea only getting a point.

    Brentford game couldve gone either way - draw was probably a fair result but Brentford didnt look as good as against us.

    Now in the horrible position of hoping that ManU win?..

    That Chelsea result could be massive.

    Very happy with the Brentford result vs CHEATsea

    A ManUtd would be great to round off the weekend (unfortunately) it at the end of the day, even though we?re in 7th.. . it?s in our hands!

    As much as it takes the pressure off seeing results go our way elsewhere, at the end of the day, if we deal with the business ourselves, we don?t need to keep a hopeful eye on others results.

    Lovely

    Just as well I'm not a betting man!
    Liverpool losing and City drawing was not on my radar!
