Jesus Christ. We haven’t lost at home in the league for nearly four months.

Burnley are not going to get 13 or 14 points in their remaining games. 

I don’t follow your logic, my apologies if I’m missing something but Burnley are only 7 points behind us with a better goal difference, a game in hand and have us left to play. That means they only need to get 4 points better than us then beat us last game.

 

 That’s not an impossible task as they also play other teams around them.

Everyone seems to be forgetting even if we are dreadful through the run in, Everton will be worse.

Aye, they get two penalties and still can’t see a game out. They’re horrific going forwards and at the back

I can still see them “beating” Man U as they desperately want us to go down then they have Watford left to play I think.

 

 We need another 4 points in my opinion so hopefully our home form will see us through.  I honestly don’t think we’ll get any of them against wolves though.

We've 3 home games coming up against mid table sides and also have Norwich and Burnley to play. We’re also 7 points infront of 18th. People really need to relax like.

Man U players have checked out, they have no reason to impress the current manager and a fair few of them could be leaving in the summer, I could easily see Everton and Burnley winning this weekend and Wolves sneaking a 0-1 against us.

 

Man Utd, who's 3 points off CL spot, have checked out? Really? :lol:

I think they want CL football more than seeing us going sound. They are 3 points off 4th. Some people are mental :lol:

They have plenty reasons to impress the guy that is about to be appointed. Also they are very much in the fight for too 4. What are you on about? :lol:

That scenario also requires two of Everton, Watford and Leeds to keep pace as well.

And Brentford, as based on their whacky scenario we have a game in hand over them and are only two points behind - so entirely feasible they’ll be below us.

 

It’s funny because how many people had Palace to beat Arsenal, or Brentford to beat Chelsea at the weekend on their accas? It’s the time of season where funny results occur - those four games people are just writing off are not foregone conclusions.

 

The short answer is we’ve been comfortably better than at least the four teams at the bottom of the league over the last 5, 10, 15, and 25 games. It’d take a totally unique run of results not just by us, but the four teams below us also, to see any risk of relegation.

 

It’s never going to happen.

I was glad Burnley won last night and want them to beat Norwich on Sunday, I am absolutely desperate for Grand old team to be relegated. We need max 4 points to stay up and if we cant get that from Wolves, Palace, Leicester at home and Norwich away then we deserve to go down.

The logic is that they have only won 4 games all season and are averaging under a point a game. They were very lucky yesterday as Everton should have put that game to bed. Burnley are a poor team and won't get 13 - 14 points to mean we will require 6 or 7 points as suggested in the original post.

Those home games are all against top half teams. We haven't beaten a top half team all season.

Without checking I am sure Brighton were in the top half when we beat them? We have also beaten Villa who are literally a point behind 10th.  is three points between Palace in 9th and Brighton in 13th so absolutely nothing between the likes of Palace, Leicester, Brighton and Villa. Even we are only 6 points of 9th and that's down to having Bruce  in charge until October, like I said if we cant get 4 points from them games we don't deserve to stay up anyway.
