How many points will keep us Safe

[davek]

@davek reckons 72 points.

You have to winalot to get to Camelot.

 

[Toffeelover]

One point above the bottom 3.

 

[Paul Rideout]

Win the 4 home games because of the crowd or whatever the reason is. Then throw the whole team in the bin and start again.

 

[Petit]

Need 3 more wins.. Burnley have an easier lineup of games

They are also an abject side that cannot score goals for love or money, as long as Jonjoe Kenny isn’t playing for the opposition.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

Nine more points will be more then enough. Wins against Leicester, Brentford and Crystal Palace will have us on 37 points. An exra point at Watford would be colossal too. Burnley aren't getting 13/14 points or more in eight games regardless of who they're playing.

 

[Sheedy's right peg]

I miss mid-table obscurity.

 

[BrendanGOT]

I reckon 3 more wins should secure our top flight safety let's hope we can get those 3 wins and sooner rather than later. If we can beat Leicester the pressure will be off big time. To do that we need the same effort that we had against United from the lads.

 

[tellmema]

They played the worst team in the league today and lost. They will lose at least 3 more .


So did we ......

 

[johnjoeefc]

It could even be that 2 wins and 2 draws will be enough. Burnley losing today was massive.

But more important now is we just finish the season off with the level of performance we have shown against utd.

 

[Groucho]

What's the minimum amount of points that will get us safe ?

However many Phil Neville can muster

 

[mglennon]

Burnley have won 4 lge games all season.

Not a chance they are winning another 4 . Best case for Burnley 10 pts .

We need 7pts to be safe I believe.

My only fear I'd our GD will get a good hammering at anfield. That's a PT lost

 

[ToffeeTim]

3 more wins should be enough. That means Burnley need at least 4.

I'm thinking the number is still about 35 or 36

A look at Burnley's games and a lot of clubs don't have much to play for or are safe with the exception of West Ham and Spurs which worries me.

From our games, we have a 4 point lead and a game in hand. I think we can win 5 or 15 points which would put us on 43 points.

Obviously our games v Liverpool, Chelsea, Leicester (A) and Arsenal are the tougher games but a point here and there isn't out of the realms of madness especially with key players back fit.

You think we can win 5 games out of 8? ?

That was midweek. But yesterday yes it was bad because Leeds only have about 4-6 points realistically available that they will still get based on their remaining 6 games. Watford wouldn't have reached over 35 points even if they beat Leeds.

So yes Leeds winning was a bad one

Watford winning would have been worse
