TRon Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Still 10 for me, left it too late. Think it'll be us and Norwich. If it's a 10 then what is there to think about? I still think Sunderland are the best bet, but at least we have now given ourselves an outside chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 We'll have to do something extraordinary (beat City at home or beat Liverpool away) to stay up. Beating Palace and Villa won't be enough. May even need a point from Spurs too. It's just too big of an ask, the change should have been made a couple of months sooner than it was. Got to be a 9.5 at least.

Ketsbaia Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 As much as we needed a Sunderland won today, I think it just makes it more likely that they'll stay up. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmojorisin75 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 As much as we needed a Sunderland won today, I think it just makes it more likely that they'll stay up. 9 Aye, this seems to be getting ignored tbh. They also won 3-0 and have played better than us recently, generally speaking. Of the two teams they're surely much more likely to put together a couple of wins.

nufcjb Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 We need atleast a point against City but can't see us getting it. The thought of us being out of the relegation zone before kickoff on the final day then getting relegated by the end of the game makes me sick and ill.

STM Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Funny enough, I think Norwich are certs to go down now. Momentum has turned against them. Sadly, I think Sunderland will benefit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Is our Anfield trip before their Europa semi-final? Before the first leg aye. They didn't really change the team for the Stoke match before the Dortmund home match though, can't really tell what they'll do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Is our Anfield trip before their Europa semi-final? They have Everton in Wednesday, us on Saturday then Villarreal on Thursday. Couldn't ask for a better time to play them really. Still have a hard time seeing us get anything other than a hot, firm bumming off them though.

joeyt Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Is our Anfield trip before their Europa semi-final? Before the first leg aye. They didn't really change the team for the Stoke match before the Dortmund home match though, can't really tell what they'll do. They did leave Coutinho, Origi, Lallana and Lovren on the bench for that Stoke game so hopefully he'll do something similar versus us and we might only lose 2-0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Everton and Europe games are huge for them. And with us sandwiched in between I'd be amazed if we faced a full strength Liverpool team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1878 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I wouldn't get your hopes up for a blood and thunder Merseyside derby game with injuries and suspensions. The derby is going to be like a training match for Liverpool. Our players have clearly given up on Martinez and the atmosphere around the whole club is the worst I've ever known it in 20-odd years of going the match. Wouldn't even surprise me if Martinez rested players in the derby. He knows winning the cup is the only way he can cling onto his job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ted Maul Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Too little too late. We sealed our fate getting 1 point out of Norwich and Sunderland. 9.5 at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPL Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Gone from a 9.5 to a 9, still think we'll go down. Sunderland are the definitely the favourites at the minute to stay up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 I have Sunderland staying up by a point, with us getting 6 points from Palace and Villa which is far from guaranteed. I fancy we need to beat Spurs on the final day and for Sunderland not to we at Watford. That last minute loss at Norwich is a killer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
