Highly unlikely but they have a lot of 6 pointers. Hope they lose to Sheffield. Then they play us, Bournemouth, West Ham and Man City. If they lose to Sheffield and we win against them. Thats us 29 compared to their 35. The next 2 6 pointers will say where they stand. Norwich are now done & in my opinion there are five teams in competition for the last two spots. Villa, Watford, West Ham, Bournemouth & Brighton. I don't see Newcastle getting drawn back into the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they lost they're next 5 then it would look a lot different. I won't rule that if I'm honest. They'll play 3 of those 5, plus Sheff Utd and City. I'd like Sheff Utd to beat them, then we'll have our biggest game this season I think (not sure if I'd say bigger than the final). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Newcastle wn today and they will virtually be safe, 38 points wth eight games left to play, would take one of the worst runs of form that premer league as ever seen for them to go down at this stage. In fact would probably be better for us if they did win today, make them virtually safe when we play them so they might not be as determined to get the win.

Decent goal difference and it's not out of the question that 35 pts could be enough this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I would have taken a point out of the Chelsea game before Wednesday but now it feels like we need three. Why? Because I think that we will lose against Utd and Liverpool and only get a point off Arsenal at best. I think Wolves will beat us too. We need to get as close to 40 points as possible to have a chance of survival. I thought Sheff Utd was one of our best chances of 3 points and we failed.

useless Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 Leicester and Wolves still playing for europe, as are Arsenal, and Palace might feel they need one more win to guarantee safety, so in theory all the teams playing our relegation rivals have something to play for. Not confident of Wolves beating West Ham though, they still seem to struggle against the division's weaker teams, in fact take away their wins against Man City and Spurs and they'd still be needing points to be sure of safety themselves. Leicester also have been out form, except against us of course, winning only one of their last five games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 (edited) Troy Deeney starts... How things can change Ain't 100 % safe yet at all. Technically he is putting his son at risk. Hypocrite. Edited June 20, 2020 by villalad21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 West Ham will be an interesting one actually. Think they'll benefit from behind closed doors as we know how toxic London stadium is when they're losing and look like they might go down. Got Wolves, Chelsea, Watford and Burnley at home before they play us. Suppose one good thing is at least one of them/Watford will drop points right near the end of the season so we must capitalise on that weekend however we're playing.

Whenever i watched them under their previous managers this season they looked woeful defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted June 20, 2020 Share Posted June 20, 2020 This is why we needed a win against Sheffield United, people overrating them and talking as if it was an amazing result, we have to set our standards higher than that, and Watford getting a draw, maybe a win against a better team in Leicester shows us why. We're down like a reflection in a puddle, unless we start winning games, draws aren't good enough, no matter how good the opposition are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
