What's interesting in the battle for position now is no longer Arsenal and Manchester City, but Liverpool and Manchester United because Newcastle managed to beat Brighton yesterday in round 25.
Mathematically, Newcastle have not passed the UCL because they still meet Leicester City, who are struggling to avoid relegation, and Chelsea, who could qualify for Man United or Liverpool.
Indeed, what you say is true, but on the other hand, looking at their current opponents, I think with Leicester and Chelsea it's not a big problem for them. Even if they can't win but if it's two draws from 2 games it's actually enough to get them in the Champions League next season and with Leicester in the state I think it's not even going to be a draw because their conditions are still very different and I feel Newcastle will won again against Leicester who are currently still slumped in the relegation zone.
On the other hand, against Chelsea, Newcastle still has a big chance, especially since they are still going through an update with their current new coach.
Well here the opportunity that Newcastle has is something unique , they cannot miss out, not only with this game but with everything they have left , the opportunity to get into one of the positions they have to be able to play a better role is something that is rarely it happens, as far as I'm concerned, this type of team deserves an opportunity and for them they want to win, for this reason I think that things will Happen here as long as they want it and play with all their desire, otherwise they won't I think they can do a lot , of course this is what I think According to a lot of what can be Done.
It's quite unique because you did discuss the conditions where this was already a few weeks ago but I like that because indeed the discussion now is still the same and my speculation about Newcastle is now a reality.
As I said before a few weeks ago even if they get a draw in this game it will not make anything because their position remains comfortable in the Champions League.
These 2 draws have brought them to position 3 which Liverpool have not caught up with, especially in the last 2 matches Liverpool have really messed up.
Now they are trying a new page in the Premiere League because Newcastle are currently in 4th position and they are preparing for the Champions League next season.
I'm quite curious about the renovation they will do after this.
