If we have Wilson, Dubs and ASM in the team from now till the end of the season we will have no problem at all

Almiron as well. He’s a great outlet when defending, especially with asm on the pitch and teams preoccupied with him.

Correct, I dont. However, I would happily take a bet that we wont. 

Already got a bet on for Saturday and better odds than you would give. Will do the same when we play Arsenal. Suggest you do the same since you’re so certain.

Brighton’s fixtures are:

Everton (H)

Chelsea (A)

Sheffield United (A)

Leeds United (H)

Wolves (A)

West Ham (H)

Man City (H)

Arsenal (A)

They are currently level on points with us, and on paper you would say they only have 1 winnable game (Sheffield United) , possibly 2 (Wolves). Brighton themselves are not safe yet in my opinion.

Both Brighton and Burnley are right in it just as much as us. Mind, I still think all 3 will be ok as I just don’t see Fulham getting out of it.

Perhaps after tonight’s result we should be more concerned with WBA than Fulham......an 8 point gap looks big enough but their next 2 games are Villa and Wolves...not inconceivable that they they could be 2 points behind us in a fortnight.....looks like perhaps 5 teams now involved in the scrap.

I don’t think we need to be more focussed on them. We need to just concentrate on doing it ourselves. I think 4-6 points will be enough. WBA are 8 points behind us, possibly more realistically 9 points considering the goal difference. 4 points would mean they would likely need 13 points to overtake us.

Agreed, it's all about what we can do...however if we fail to accumulate any more points over the next couple of games, then it may well be WBA who we are looking over the shoulder at, instead of Fulham.

No it’s not their next game is Leicester away.

Missed that one....Villa and wolves after that.....anyway Stifler is right...if we can pick up a few points in our next 3 games then we’ll be safe...BUT if we get nothing from WHU, Liverpool and Arsenal, then IMO it will be WBA and not Fulham who we have to keep an eye on.

I still can’t see West Brom or Fulham catching us now especially with Wilson and St Max returning. Time will tell though.

I'm of the same opinion, but believed WBA’s run of winnable games was always likely to put them in a closer position to us rather than Fulham.
