If we don't get 15points at least from that set of fixtures I'll eat my own hat......and it's a really nice looking hat too, that would be a dinner time delight.
 
Seriously though, from those fixtures are enough opportunities to pick up points. I see 3 free hits against Southampton, Spurs and United, whilst the rest we are certainly able to get points from. Points at Stoke, West Ham and Swansea, and at home against Newcastle are not to be sniffed at. Wins against Sunderland and Burnley, and at QPR and Villa are also within reach.

Therefore, that leaves us with 16 points from our last 11, with
WIN 4
DRAW 4
LOSE 3

However, negatively, I can also see a few surprises so can see us end up with something more like

WIN 2
DRAW 5
LOSE 4

Which is 11 points from 11, leaving us on 39 points.. enough for survival.

Positively, I see surprises leaving us with

WIN 5
DRAW 5
LOSE 1

Leaving us with 48 points... poor, but mid table.

Christ, a home game against Southampton is seen as a "free hit". What on earth has this season done to us?
 
Cant see us losing more than 4 of the last 11. Our home form needs to improve so if we win 3 out of 6 and 1 away. Couple of draws then were sorted. Need to get something from Stoke game otherwise pressure will build.

Possibility of 6 of those games coming after a Thursday night europa game so I wouldn't expect much from them.

That could in then leave us with 5 games to get what we need.

I'm sick of all this not altering his philosophy for anything but that to me is just code for I don't know any other way and I don't know how to turn our very good players into a winning team. It's all well and good having a style to strive for but if you haven't got the players to implement the style then you need to adapt. Force the style on players not comfortable with it you end up with the rubbish we have seen this season.

Agree, it shouldn't be, and it won't be next season I'm sure, but playing how we are... I really do fear that's how it is.
 

If we are to catch Swansea and West Ham, we got to beat them at their home. 8th is the best we hope for this season.

I don't like think we're playing well enough tbh although West Ham look really poor, Swansea have got a bit about them.
