Relegation

[jinkyali]

Think if after Utd we had been told Burnley get one point from Norwich and West Ham we would have taken it.

Time to put our foot down on the pedal Wednesday evening.

 

[RomanReigns]

Beat Leicester to go 6 points clear with a better goal difference than Burnley

Is right

 

[PhilEFC]

Thing is VDB has played a few games we really didnt turn up in and he offered nothing, bench at best for him on Wedneday

Yeah I agree, but at least he gives us another option.

 

[MikeH72]

As you alluded to, we arent creating chances for our Strikers, last season DCL and Richy had service and slotted.

Richarlison only scored 1 more last season than he has this?

I'm glad someone else is like me

Buns of steel by the end of this season!

Thats true, unless he is very cheap i dont think we will be keeping him

You know, I edited Richarlison in, then thought, maybe I should check how many he actually scored, I can only picture that goal at Anfield, which was worth 20.

 

[knowing your history]

The way they play nothing is winnable for them. Southampton and wolves are two tough games

They're actually unbeaten in last 5-6 games v Wolves (got a 0-0 in the away game in December) so they tend to match up o.k in that one. Wolves missing Neves and were really poor at Newcastle last match. Southampton very random team.

I think they'll get 4 points. Them winning both would be bit of a disaster given they'll still have Watford, Villa twice and Newcastle after that.

We'll see in 7 days.

No I don’t think we’ll keep him either.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

Good point for Burnley but they need wins at this stage to put us under proper pressure. We must press our advantage home on Wed and get the 3 pts to keep them at arms length. They play twice before the derby

 

[paultheblue]

I think we got away with it today , had Burnley won we would have been right back in the brown stuff.
We have to start picking some points up away from home as we can't just assume we will win the home games.
Every match is a battle from now on.

The good thing is Wolves have still got a chance of Europe haven’t they?

Ahhh yea! You were picking up what I was putting down

We have got away with it the last few weeks to be fair, so much is going for us at the minute, would rather Burnley had lost off course but when your 1up, and have a pen to go 2up and miss it, then you know you have to take advantage of it

Yep…A few teams have done us a favour recently. Need to exploit that starting with three points against Leicester
