The race for... Europe?

[Shogun]

Just a question of whether we want Europa or Conference imo

It’s actually a very good question. Europa has more quality in it but I don’t know, would fancy us for a real go at the conference and being there or thereabouts in it

Feels like we've got through the toughest part of the season whilst remaining in contention for Europe, and actually probably coped better than expected.

Looking at the squad we've got depth most places other than full back, players not getting game time that probably deserve it and are ready to contribute when required, and Branthwaite almost ready to step back in for Keane which gives us a whole new dimension.

We lost Grealish but brought in George, so mitigated that loss somewhat.

I'm probably for the first time believing Europe is on.

It'll still require a bit of luck. There are certain players we can't afford to lose through injury, and Moyes needs to take the brakes off and really go for it, but providing those things happen we'll be 7th or 8th come the end of the season.

Hard to believe really that it's February and we have something tangible to play for other than surviving yet another relegation battle!

We can’t keep getting results playing like this surely

Take it a game at a time. At this stage, I’m delighted we are in with a shout

If we can come out for the first half in home ganes like we believe we can win it, we're definitely in with a chance.

We're grinding out points somehow lately which isn't sustainable until the end of the season.

Our next 10 games include:

Utd
Newcastle
Arsenal
Chelsea
The Shite
City

We're not getting into Europe.

We'll finish about 12th, probably finishing on around 50 points, and that's ok really considering the last few years.

United will shit themselves
Newcastle are shite
Arsenal will be bottling the league at that point
Chelsea can sniff it
The shite, clues in the name
City are crap, Haaland no better than Beto atm

18 points no bother.

Feels like we have a few things we need to figure out if we're to get over the line.

Can't complain about the spirit shown to get results from wobbly performances. We have a tougher run of games coming up and it's unlikely we get away with halves of football where we look a mess against some of those teams.

We do have some options though (George and like a new player Branthwaite plus those like Tim, Rohl, etc) to play around with things so hoping Moyes can figure it out.

Everytime this thread pops up after a win though, it seems to sink again after say a lacklustre performance at home so that's probably the next thing Moyes has to work out. Making our new home more of a strength.

Feels bloody great to see us debating whether we will get into Europe or not.

Who knows whether we will get there, but the mood around the club has changed dramatically since Moyes and the new owners have come in.

Really looking forward to the rest of the season to see how far we can go

21 points on the road.
16 at home.
That needs to sort itself out if we've got any hope.

It also points to what @brap2 is worried about - away games will garner points with less possession because its the entire game plan.
Can we stop teams doing it to us at home is the big question to be asked of Moyes.
