Why Champions League is ours to lose nufc championsleague
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity. Might seem strange to quote Dickens at the start of an article about Newcastle United FC.
For us the belief is sky high but sometimes it feels incredulous that we have got into this position, just nineteen months after a Newcastle United takeover which undoubtedly saved us from relegation. At the start of the season, if you asked most fans who they expected to leave by the end of the following summer you would have ended up with a list containing most of the first team squad. The fact is, you can’t overhaul a whole squad in two or three windows and certainly not in one.
However… although we’ve punched above our weight, although we’re here a year or two earlier than expected, although I always said any form of European football will be fine… now, we need to clinch one of the elite spots in the Champions League. It’s ours. It’s there. We cannot relinquish this position now.
Man Utd probably have the easiest run in. Three home games from the final four and play Wolves , Bournemouth , Chelsea , Fulham . I wouldn’t be at all surprised to see them take the maximum points but hopefully a couple of those teams can sneak results. With Wolves and Bournemouth all but safe, Fulham home and dry and Chelsea a complete shambles, these are the types of games I would prefer at this stage of the season.
