    I don't back Leicester to do it, given the missing defenders and Rodgers having a mixed record in big games, but hopefully a stand-out performance or two can get the job done.

    Vardy will have limited opportunities to play in the Champion's League at this stage of his career for example, so you know he'll be bang up for it.

    Even if Leicester manage if though, United still have every chance of the Europa, but by God, them missing out would be a nice little extra cherry on this wonderful three-course meal of a season.

    If Rodgers was managing Celtic and this was Kilmarnock.IT would be a shoe-in for Rodgers.Lets see if he can live up to the hype.

    Would love to see Leicester turn in their performance of the season but just dont see them having the mettle for it.
    I wonder if the sponsorship dealsUtd have tied into finishing in the top 4 would be affected if the for instance finish 5th but win the Europa?
    Clever wording in the contract might be "finish in the top 4" and not "make the champions league ".

    I doubt it CL football however they get it will be all the sponsors need.

    Utd will get at least a point today but funny if it was a draw and Chelsea lose to Wolves.

    United qualify via the league.

    Dont watch their games, it looks like Bruno has had a massive impact on their results though.
    And the penalties of course

    Only reason they got top four was a string of Mike Riley level VAR decisions to get them over the line reminiscent of the ridiculous decisions they got week in week out under Whiskey face. I'm quite glad they got back into the Champions League as I think they'll really struggle, that squad isn't Champions League quality and as we saw throughout Whiskey Face's 20 odd years, in Europe, where officials aren't in their pocket and haven't been subjected to years of Murdoch's media CBT, they get no free hand outs and are found desperately wanting time and time and time again

    Yet another penalty today.
    Penalty hand-outs is their top scorer this season.
