The next four

[jim5000]

With Cooper in charge I can’t see us winning a match all season.

 

We have one of the worst squads and the worst manager in the division.

[Haywood_6]

Everyone always predicts a win against Bournemouth, they're no pushovers. Probably fancy our chances more against a weakened palace than Bournemouth.

[Supergray22]

I think the palace and Everton games are our best hope for wins. If we can do that it would be massive for our season. Maybe a draw at Bournemouth as they are no longer  a banker three points. If we could beat them that would be brilliant. Arsenal - I think we can do better than people think. Keep the losing margin below three. 

[Haywood_6]

We’re going to beat Arsenal at the Emirates— odegaard is injured and I can't remember us ever winning there. There are always a few surprise results each season, this could be one of them?

 

Alright, that's enough. I'm going doolally again.

Won 1-0 at the Emirates during Covid, 2020. Vardy bagged!

We won there in 2020, I believe.

Who's going to stop Saka running riot, Victor Kristiansen .  I doubt it.

 

And Saka is only one of a quality Arsenal team.

 

While I agree upsets do happen, the team has to be all on the same page which I'm not sure ours is due to the manager.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Simply have to win points, there are no excuses.

 

No doubt we'll hear the same "we're still bonding as a team, we have new players and a new manager" excuses at the end of this run of 4 games when 20% of the season has gone though.

[Leicester_Loyal]

Anything less than 4 points and we're in trouble already, can't be needing about 34 points with 31 games left yet, especially not having played Everton, Palace, Bournemouth already.

[Les-TA-Jon]

It's the next 7, not just 4 that could be crucial

 

[StanSP]

Win all 4.

[Tommy G]

Ayew needs to start v Palace, ex club etc - bound to score. 

[alanf0x]

People taking a point at home to Bournemouth. How far we have fallen!

Performance more important than results for me over the next 3 or 4 games.

 

We've got a really nice balance to the squad now. If Cooper now continues to approach games like we're a league two team and only let the team attack when there's nothing to lose then he can go for me.

 

No issue with us setting up solid, but the team has to have license to attack and press long before the 60th minute. Absolutely bored stiff with risk averse football.

He already has. In fact if there’s something you want to put any hope in Kristansen, it’s the brilliant performance he had v Arsenal and Saka on the last occasion he played them. 

[Fox92]

Not looking forward to Arsenal. Think I'll be out the ground by half time

Narrow loss to Palace away,  win at home to Everton, lose to Arsenal away heavily, hopefully draw against Bournemouth at home (a bogey side for us at home).

Never mind at home - in the past decade we've played them six times at their place and scraped a grand total of... two points from a possible 18. And it took Vardy starting 'The Streak' to get us one of them!

 

We haven't won a league game in Bournemouth since this fella whipped out the Zimmer Frame in 2013. They've legitimately been our bogey side for a solid decade in the league now, though hopefully the FA Cup win has broken the cycle!

 

And we might well need it on the final day, too... 😬

How did Reid do?  This cliche gets rolled out all the time. He barely scored for them so they know his threat. 

[whoareyaaa]

Palace(a) draw

Everton(h) win

Arsenal (a) lose

Afcb(h) win

 

7 points

Thats the best excuse I've see someone come up with for starting Ayew

[Sly]

I think we’ll lose all four.

It’s not a cliche - just a hunch!

I’m not a massive Agee fan, just feel it could be the right decision. Haul him on 60 mins if he’s crap
