Next 5 games

[ToffeeTim]

Disagree Tim, I thought they ran rings round us and we couldn't handle their pace.

In any event, we got beat 2-0 and it felt to me like a comfortable win for them.

They deserved to win clearly but we gifted them the win rather than them doing anything impressive.

Palace H

Watford A

Burnley A

Brighton H

Stoke A

Lots of winnable games in there, We have a decent record against the teams below us and seem to do well against them at home

Will we pick up the 9 points we need to get to 40 in these 5 games or are we going to make a hash of it and drag this shambles on into the final part of the season

A few right tweeks from Same we can win most of them, Snides and Martina out would be a good place to start.

Palace W
Watford D
Burney L
Brighton W
Stoke D

Maybe 8 points, being optimistic.

 

[Barnfred 55]

Palace is a maybe, Brighton is the only confident one. The others could easily see us smashed into oblivion

9 points should be achievable from those games. But as I have no confidence in our manager to pick the right team, or for ourcoward players to turn up for him, anything could happen.

I meant the struggle for the coveted 40 pts will go right up until the West Ham game imo. That result yesterday is a blow to the teams confidence after the win against Leicester, back to square one again. With the lower teams starting to put the shifts in I'm having nightmares of playing Davey Moyes' West Ham whilst we are sitting on 37 points

Haha, if we're still sitting on 37 points going into the last game of the season then we deserve to go down. NEA.

Let's do what Sam does, win a game then change the team completely.

He's a muppet,

10 points from these 5 or we are toast.

We should be looking at this as 5 winable games ... the fact we are not is the root of the problem !

Hang on mate, you really think we’ll only get 6 points from the next 11 games?

2 sides are going to have to get 7 points more than us in 12 games to threaten us. Can’t see it myself.

A lot of unexpected things have already happened this season mate. Nothing surprises me with Everton anymore

Yeah, it's terrifying to think of how perilous our situation is when you look at the form/fixtures of the sides below us. West Brom, Hudderfield and Stoke could realistically be looking at 13 points from their next 15.

I get that mate. I think we are ok this season but more to do with others being crap.

The way I look at it, the bottom 5 haven’t averaged a point per game in 26 matches, so for 2 or 3 of them to suddenly start now is unlikely.

West Brom are 4 points adrift at the bottom but outplayed us twice since Christmas so why should any of those fixtures be more winnable?

They just won at Anfield too.

Our record over the whole season suggests that we can get wins against the sides below us. Our record against the bottom half sides is:

P11, W6, D4, L1

 

[Muppet Basher]

We will be safe,and get what we need.
But i can't take another season like this.

 

[windymiller]

7 points there I reckon. I'm off to Burnley away so that'll be nul points!
