Just had a gander at our next 6 games after Villa, 4 of those games are Arsenal, Chelsea and Man U all away and Spurs at home (the other 2 are Forest away and Brentford home) We need the maximum 6 pts from Leeds and Villa.

It’s not going to be easy and I agree we haven’t helped ourselves but it’s not going to take a miracle. We just need to be a bit better organised and our players to play a bit better. Easier said than done but we’ve just got 1.5 ppg from two of our hardest remaining fixtures and a ppg of 1.25 will see us to 38 points. That requires a big improvement from what we’ve been doing but with an experienced, streetwise manager not a miraculous one.
Well we have only scored 2+ goals twice this season so far. Yikes. Hopefully that changes under Dyche but the incompetence from the board is baffling.
Hopefully Chelsea continue to struggle, not that I expect a win away but a point would be nice. A win away to Forest is an absolute must and a win home against Brentford as well. I’m really looking forward to that Brentford match after how last years went. If this squad has any fight in them they will be up for it.

Conventional wisdom goes out the window with us though. End of last season we got 1 point from Brentford, Burnley and Watford and 9 from United, Chelsea and Leicester away.
We’re still in a position where no game is an absolute must win but likewise no game is a write off.

Yep, ive said it a few weeks now that the 3 home games and forest away are big and for me we have to win 3 of those, as you say because of the other games,

I'm maybe in a minority but I thought Marsch would've been a decent shout for Southampton, he seems to be a decent man manager and could possibly connect with a group of fairly talented young players who didn't connect with Hassenhuttl or Jones.Yikes!
Jesse Marsch: Talks between former Leeds boss and Southampton break down
Jesse Marsch had been on verge of becoming Southamptons new manager after being sacked by Leeds last week; Southampton dismissed Nathan Jones last Sunday; the former Luton boss lost seven of his eight Premier League games in charge; Southampton are bottom, four points from safetywww.skysports.com
The longer Leeds and Southampton limp along with supply teachers the better- there can be an interim manager bounce but it tends to be fairly short lived, like Jackson at Burnley at last season who got a few results before ultimately taking them down.
It'll make very little difference if we can't perform ourselves of course, but the fact Bournemouth, Leeds and Southampton are currently managed by guys who had no prior management experience at all, in a highly pressurised situation, helps a bit.
It only takes a set piece though. That's where Dyche will improve the goal rate.

I'm going to dress this up as being good news for us.
We've won 4 of our last 22 league games, and you think we have to win 3 of our next 4?
COYB!
John.
every game is a must win
Villa will be my 5th trip from Ireland. Always stay 1 night and do it for about 250 a trip or less. Don't really drink and stay near the airport

I honestly think there may be some points from Chelsea, United and Spurs. Feels a good time to be playing them.
