With us scheduled to play the Foxes on the last day, it could effectively turn into a winner-takes-all scenario.

Rashford admitted that the team is keen to do their bit and ensure they don’t drop any more points this season. (h/t Express)

“We have to go and win every game, that has been the goal for the past few weeks.”

Although we are unbeaten in 19 games now, Southampton and now Palace have proven themselves to be tough opponents. The fact that we have had to dig deep to see them off has not been lost on the squad. (h/t Express)
