Valencia vs Santos FC I hate these types of games for a few reasons. Short term: If the 3 teams above us loose or draw then a victory for us will certainly see us move up the league. so we need to win! Long term: I have the top 2 teams to play in my next 2 fixtures, after that i play 2 of the teams just above us. so we have nothing to loose this week and the one after as the last 2 fixtures are vital. so with nothing to loose i can go for it big style, as we arent expected get anything? i dont like it because, it is simple, makes us predictable as we need to win!

Another tough away game , they are coming thick and fast , but no real pressure on me, i reckon Roma will be more worried than me going into this game.

Could do with another point or two to make sure of elite league status. So hopefully I can start off here.

Yes with Santos losing i thought, oh should I have still battled for the league but even if I were to have beat you it would have meant them losing another two and me winning the lot, short odds that. Now the cups have a lot more promise so i hope i've made the right decision, back fired on me a few seasons ago though.

Thats the problem John, a Treble is almost an impossible task, especially when playing for the Elite title, but still difficult in any league, would really be impressed if someone were to acheive a treble.
Inter Milan the balls in your court , no real pressure now ! ;D

Inter Milan the balls in your court , no real pressure now ! ;D It is very difficult and Inter are able to relax on the league a little and concentrate on the cups but would they in the elite? Think I've had the opportunity before and wrongly decided to leave the league then teams slipped up and I ended up with one cup or even possible trophyless If Inter pull of the treble, three cups no matter what they are is an achivementy and a half, although I think Porto may be taking away one of the first part of the treble. What a rollercoaster ride they have been on!

Only just discovered this thread.
Im pretty relaxed about the league run in, we have 3 home games left out of the remaining 4 fixtures, so whilst the season has been a slog with so many away games, im happy to see what we have coming up. The last game of the season.... Inter - Porto, could be MASSIVE!
as for the treble, If im honest I dont fancy beating Santos whatsoever, will certaintly make sure we are ready for them, but that is my main "worry" at this moment in time.

I know everyone is talking about the treble with you, but what if you finished with nothing, it's highly unlikely but very possible?

Back to our league now.
What does everyone think the drop points will be this yeara the previosu highest in all leagues was myself and Andie with 16 points, could that be beaten this year? Are me and Gazza already safe on 15 points?
I feel for some reason I still need 2pts making 16 the drop again, will this points mark every be beaten?
