And even if they lose at Palace (which is no given), you'd fancy them to win at home to a deflated Spurs on the final day (assuming Tottenham are out of the title race by then).

ian_marshall Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 I said earlier in the week that if most of the teams below us go unbeaten between now and the end of the season (Which I personally think is highly unlikely) West Ham are the one most at risk as their home form's awful and they have Tottenham, then Liverpool at the London Stadium, and finish with an away trip to Burnley. Genuinely can't see them picking up another point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stadt Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 Everton are dogshit, if/when Lukaku leaves in the summer they have a very mediocre side, I'd say we're better than them and our squad isn't great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said this the other day (post Arsenal thread) i think 41 points will be safe this season, we played deep to earn a draw against Arsenal and high energy/press to get win against WBA especially with little time between games. Our GD is a lot better than Swanseas so even if they managed to hit 41 points I highly doubt they will manage to catch us up. Main thing is our destiny is in our own hands and even if Swansea do manage to win all their remaining games we should only need a point from our remaining 4 games which should be more than achievable. Just nice to have it confirmed so can write this season off and look forward to next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just avoid defeat v Watford on Saturday, shall we, and watch the rest suffer... A question. Do we want Watford to win or draw v Liverpool tomorrow so they're not too fussed when they play us, or do we want them to lose (and not by much) so that they stay below us and both teams are happy with a draw on Saturday?

Yes I've noticed this. It's a hard ask for them but by no means impossible for them to survive. If they get a couple of wins together who knows, dependent on Hull/Swansea etc of course.

Palace can't expect to carry on getting results against the top sides; the fixture v Hull in 2 weeks time is huge, Palace play Man City lunch time Saturday while Hull play Sunderland at home next week. If Palace lose at City, Hull can leapfrog them if they win at Selhurst Park. Hull beating Sunderland is a formality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corky Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 Realistically, we need one point from four games. That's with Swansea gaining 9, Hull getting 7 and Palace getting three from two difficult away games and playing Hull at home. If we can't manage another point we deserve to go down.

Their run in is awful too and the fact that they didn't pick anything up yesterday must be a worry to their fans as that was their easiest remaining fixture.

Watching United today and seeing their knackered players dropping like flies, I'd take Palace to get something at Old Trafford on the final day.

UniFox21 Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 I'd say minus Chelsea, every one of the big teams are two or three injuries away from being a mid table team If we can recruit well this summer we have a great chance of getting further established and moving up in the prem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lifted*fox Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 Can anyone recommend a decent bar in city centre to watch the NLD later? Somewhere with decent craft beers and carpets that don't smell like arsehole. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
