We need to win four and probably get points against Chelsea or Arsenal to have a hope of making it up to 7th. 

 

And we will certainly need a better showing than the turgid last few weeks football if we have a hope of it not being all over by 5pm tonight. I for one am hopeful but don’t really have confidence in the manager to let the players off the leash and do what they do best.

I think we'll beat Arsenal but we're ****ed if what you are saying is fact as we don't play Chelsea again this season.

We’re more than capable of taking at least 13/18 in the final six - problem is I don’t think even that will be enough.

Odds are we'll lose and it's season over which may create a nasty backlash. I hope not of course, but recent form suggests the players are not comfortable being asked to play the Puel way.

 

Main hope is that Burnley are better away from home.

Oh it’s Burnley that have Chelsea then. I glanced at the fixtures yesterday. I also should have remembered, especially as I went to the away match in January!

It might be quite interesting if both Leicester & Burnley beat Arsenal.

Burnley will get 7th, and at a canter too. Got a funny feeling we'll actually win today, but then bottle our home games against Southampton and West Ham.

 

Our home form really has been the problem this season. The KP used to be such a difficult place to come, but we've dropped so many points to bang average teams there this season, and it's incredibly frustrating. A season of missed opportunities unfortunately.

Our away form is much better, too. 27pts - 22 pts.

We haven't got a hope of finishing above Burnley even if we win today with our threadbare midfield.

 

They'll win most of their remaining games 1-0 or 2-1 and finish in the high fifties points wise, wheras we'll probably end up with 47 - 50 points, congratulations Mr Dyche get a celebratory exhaust pipe to smoke and a bag of gravel to eat and enjoy your European adventure.

 

I have little to no confidence we'll be able to get results at home the way we've been playing lately and they have picked up form at the right time.

 

What a terrible premier league quality wise when a terrible team like Huddersfield have a decent chance of staying up and Burnley can go months without winning and still finish in 7th.

It'll be even more interesting if we beat you and arsenal and you lose to Arsenal and Chelsea.
