I think West Brom could be effectively down by tomorrow like.

[Guest firetotheworks]

Still a 5. I had all of these predictions as they are for the weekend. Unfortunately I also predicted a Newcastle win.

Hahaha, silly sausage.

[Ketsbaia]

Huddersfield have good games but, then again, if they win those than that's defeats for Swansea, Brighton etc. It's ridiculously tight. 9 more points takes us to 37 with a superior goal difference and I think that's enough.

[louistoon]

palace have no zaha and four of the top six in the next 5 games. By the same token hopefully they lose those and are in the relegation zone, then its either beat teams also fighting for the drop or go down themselves.

[Optimistic Nut]

Win at Bournemouth and it probably buys us 4 matchdays where we'd be out of the bottom 3 even if we lose them on the spin.

[Ketsbaia]

Give Rafa two weeks to form a gameplan and I'm confident we can get something at Bournemouth.

[HaydnNUFC]

Give Rafa two weeks to form a gameplan and I'm confident we can get something at Bournemouth. They have a cup game too, right?

Nah.

Plus a fit Slimani with a bit of luck.

This is the key point, will be a massive lift for the players if he plays

Didn't realise just how big a win at Bournemouth would be, considering the other fixtures. Could conceivably go 10th and move clear of a lot of sides.

[Guest firetotheworks]

I'll go as a 0 on the meter if we beat Bournemouth.

[Stifler]

If we won it then it would be massive. You would have to say that if we did win it then we would be 2 wins and 2 draws, or 3 wins away from safety, with plenty of teams below us left to play.

[toontownman]

Would be shocked if palace aren't back in the zone given their next 3 games. The following game against huddersfield would be huge followed by Liverpool. They have a better run in but they could be broken by then.

 

West Brom potentially getting cut adrift. Stoke need some results.

 

To be honest it's still so f***ing wide open up to 10th. Can't understate the importance of today's result though. Damn shame we have to wait two weeks to play again.

[louistoon]

Good point on match of the day about Southampton playing 5 of their next 6 games away. Difficult run in for them. If we play how we did tonight i can't see how we will going down. We must have spent less time behind this season than any other team in the bottom half, we're difficult to beat, we just need a source of goals, and hopefully that can be Slimani

You look through the table and you could make a case for any team except maybe Bournmouth or West Ham going down. Madness

[Figures 1-0 Football]

Didn’t realise the next two round of games are:

 

West Brom v Huddersfield

Brighton v Swansea

 

Swansea v West Ham

Southampton v Stoke

 

With the teams all below us playing each other, a win at Bournemouth could see us with a sizeable gap.

[Dave]

That's what I said.

[Robster]

Watford followed up a much needed, morale boosting win against a top side with a loss, away to a team just around them in the league.

If we can avoid replicating that, it will be huge for us.

[louistoon]

I'd love to see a premier league table based on minutes that teams have been behind for. Think we'd be top half easy

[Twinport53]

If West Brom don't win either of their next 2, they are gone. There is absolutely no chnace a team managed by Pardew will take even close to 20 points from 10 games.

 

Chelsea and Huddersfield better see this through.

[Ketsbaia]

Wouldn't mind West Brom getting something from the Huddersfield game tbh, maybe even a win. Could help us out.

[Twinport53]

A draw wouldn't be the worst result. But I'd rather teams start getting cut adrift so we know where we stand competition wise.

[afar]

Burnley are probably in the worst form in the PL at the moment, lets face it they were woeful against us, for 80 mins I would say as bad as any team we've played. They have 36 points, only Swansea have scored less than them and it's only by one goal. We are two wins away from matching their total number of wins. Yet conventional wisdom is that they've had a great season and are comfortably safe. Honestly don't think any team from Burnley (in 7th) down can take their foot off and relax just yet, it's a crazy season with so few points separating the bulk of the division.

 

 

[High Five o]

The 3 points yesterday was really unexpected. I was at best hoping for a point.

I really hope we get push on from this. The games against Bournemouth and Southampton is absolutely crucial!

3 points against Man u is not worth much if we cant beat the teams around us.
