2 more wins gets us to 41 right? You'd have to say that should see us safe. But you never know I guess.

BTW my prediction is we get 42 points. Unless we Everton it at Watford.
yeah it does and I think that'd be enough. Obviously I would love us to win the next 4, or go unbeaten etc and win 2 of them but for me I don't care what any other teams around us do as long as we're doing our bit.

I just don't want us vitally needing 6 points from those two home games, it's a lot of pressure.
 
We, for some reason are hated by the media and arguably some officials, I don't know what we did to deserve this.

However we just need to roll up the sleeves. This is like the second half against Bayern and we are 1-1. Now we need to finish the job
I've picked up on that hate but in reality it's the biggest story if we went down. People revel in others despair and the novelty of an Everton relegation just draws attention.

We aren't hated we are sadly just irrelevant most of the time. We have had to be really really bad to get any scrutiny.

We have been on the wrong end of horrendous decisions going back to 1977. I am not a conspiracy theorist but very pragmatic. There is something rotten going on. The players this season have been poor, but some dreadful decisions have made things even worse.
 

I’m really worried about Leeds getting a result in the week, Chelsea are no doubt going to rest players with the cup final coming up a few days later. Going to Leeds mid week is never an easy match.

Chelsea's squad players are good, and honestly Chelsea need the result to guarantee CL next season.

Theyve been a bit hit and miss recently, strangely it might be Leeds most winnable game, as I fancy Brighton to turn them over and away to Brentford wont be easy.
 
One game at a time.

Watford away with the right attitude imo would see us near enough safe, with another home win in one of those 2 games.

Burnley at spurs away and Villa away are getting nothing IMO.
Burnley might pick up a point at Villa, it wouldn't be earth shattering. And I see them beating Newcastle. With a big spend expected in the summer, I can see a few of the toon thinking they won't make starting XI in August, and phoning it in.
 
Leeds
Weds 11th - Chelsea (H)
Sun 15th - Brighton (H)
Sun 22nd - Brentford (a)


Burnley
Sun 15th - Spurs (a)
Thurs 19th - Aston Villa (a)
Sun 22nd - Newcastle (H)


Everton
Weds 11th - Watford (a)
Sun 15th - Brentford (H)
Thurs 19th - Crystal Palace (H)
Sun 22nd - Arsenal (a)
I remain confident we can save ourselves in these 5 games (ending v Palace) and then not worry about Arsenal game.

Even a worse case scenario (Leeds win one draw one, Burnley win one and we lose 2 would still see)

Leeds 38
Burnley 37 (36)
Everton 35 (36)

A few points will see us in a good place with the last game to play. 4-5 points from these next 3 games is almost enough now. Even less (2-3) will give us a reasonable shot at safety.
