3. 7 points from West Ham away, Brighton home and Stoke asay is vital, even if the Brighton game was garbage.

 

Beat Swansea and we're only a few wins and draws away from being safe IMO.

[Figures 1-0 Football]

18 points needed for 40 points.

 

Even if we get next to fuck all in the window, I’d fancy Rafa to get us over the line.

 

Roll on the European push next season with Staveley and Rafa.

[Decky]

Closer to 10th than 18th now too but obviously some sides have yet to play. Four of the teams below us play each other tomorrow.

[mrmojorisin75]

that's changed the complexion of things a lot imo, ~16 points needed from 16 games

 

i think we'll be close to that without new signings but might just fall short, with new signings i reckon we'll manage it

[Deuce]

7 points out of 12, which didn't include an absolute bumming by City. That'll do.

[Yorkie]

Feel a heck of a lot better after the last three games (cba to even count ManC) but the threat very much remains. For Christ sake we've simply got to beat Swansea now, man. Absolutely must sort our home form out and if we're not going to do it against probably the worst team in the league, it feels like we never will.

 

Crowd need to not be cunts. Hopefully a comfortable victory against Luton will settle a few nerves.

[Ketsbaia]

14 points from 16 games - so we can win 4, draw 2 and lose 10.

[Optimistic Nut]

Beat Swansea and it's probably another 3-4 game losing streak before we go back into the bottom 3. Huge at this stage.

[Dave]

[afar]

Much more confident after today, but thank god for West Ham and Stoke, over half our points against those two.

[timeEd32]

We are closer to 10th than 18th. This is going to be a roller coaster ride for everyone in the bottom half.

[afar]

Watford have been dropping like a stone, since they thrashed us. It's really impossible to call the three that will go down, Swansea need to sustain their new manager bounce and beat us, we obviously can't afford that to happen.

Still think Brighton & Huddersfield will go on a 5-6 game losing streak at some point which will throw them in it even further.

[timeEd32]

If I had to call it right now I’d say Swansea, West Brom, and Huddersfield.

[samptime29]

Looking better. See good early investment, and 3 points vs Swansea please.

[Twinport53]

We've managed 22 points with this sqaaaad. And I can't see us going on another run of 4 points from 30. January additions to come aswell.

[Amir_9]

Swansea, West Brom, Stoke

 

We will finish 15th or 16th

[samptime29]

Stoke have got a tricky March/start of April.

 

I've they don't pick up a few wins before then, could be in massive trouble.

[Nobody]

Fuck this thread

[astraguy]

if we don't get better players in jan we are down, We only just beat stoke

[Guest Howaythetoon]

Still an 8, we are 4 points off safety but West Ham have 2 games in hand for example.

You think we have an 80% chance of going down? That's very very high.

Anyone higher than 5 atm needs to have a sit down and think. Rafa has got us 22 from 22 with this squad, why is it so unthinkable he'd get another 16 from 16?

 

We all want new players but I think he could maybe even keep us up with what we have if it comes to it.

At the moment aye, I can see us drawing or losing to Swansea and we have Man City away soon. A takeover and some investment changes all that or could do.

 

7 points from 12 is great, but it’s still very close down there and we are still a very poor side.

[TRon]

We just need to keep picking up points, if we do that, we don't need to worry about anyone else. Draws are important as well, the Brighton result looks a lot better after today.
