Looking at the rest of the upcoming fixtures and recent performances I don’t think we get a point away from home for the rest of the season.

That leaves the home games. Realistically we’re not beating Chelsea. That leaves Wolves, Newcastle, Palace, United, Brentford. Got to win 4 of those 5 to stay up.

HOME
Wolves
Newcastle
United
Palace
Chelsea
Brentford
Leicester
21 points available.

AWAY
Burnley
Watford
West Ham
RS
Leicester
Arsenal
18 points available

Apart from the home games....Snatching points from Burnley and Watford away is a huge key to survival too.

39 points available from now until the end of the season. We need 15-18 to stay up (on the glorious 40 point mark).

Every home game is winnable, we probably need to win 4 of them
 
Leeds next two are Villa home and Norwich home so they’ll get a minimum of three points there, could be six we need Villa to do us a favour.

Probably want a draw between Brentford and Burnley even though that will put us in the relegation zone.

I think before kick off Sunday we will definitely be in bottom 3.

This is a worrying aspect. Gordon is a real trier, he is almost carrying the team atm, but his finishing is currently poor, hopefully it will improve with experience. Richarlison is hit and miss, DCL has lost his way this season, so just where are the goals going to come from? Our midfield, such as it is, contribute hardly anything. Will Gray be back for Wolves? I hope so.

We don't create high-quality chances, which is the main issue over the finishing

This obviously why we spent nothing, however if we spent nothing and we still breach it, then yeah we are in serious trouble, starting either the premier league or the championship with a points deduction is a total recipe for disaster.

We just paid him too much. Like seriously what did we think we were doing paying someone upwards of 10m a year. Especially someone injured more than half the time

the gamble was on Ancelotti getting us Europe. It should have paid off and it's a failing it didn't. But we were 4th this time last year.

Law if averages say we will Nick something away somewhere. While spurs was horrendous and Southampton, but we get the penalty at Southampton and go 1-0
Up who knows.
I felt we were comfortable at Newcastle, until they scored and obviously losing Mina and gray was huge.

Watford now have 3 tough away games, by the time they play us they could need snookers. Burnley will be under pressure at home. I see Frank going to a back 5 away from now on.

When we play Leicester twice, they may have nothing to play for, palace the same.

Maybe Utd have a Champions league game 3 days later and are looking unlikely for top 4. So our all their eggs in that basket.

As you can tell I’m trying to stay positive lol

You say we need to win both or it's 50 50 we go down. I fail to see how you come up with that . If we won both are we safe or have u a mathematical equation for All scenarios

I have explained that we have a nightmare run in, we have proved we arent capabale of winning away, the only other home games we have that are winnable are Brentford, Palace and Leicester. Ill be generous and say we win 2 of those 3 for 6 points.

I will say 3 points away from home based on form.

If we get 4 points from the next 2, then 6 from the home games I mentioned and 3 away that puts at 35 points - may well not be good enough to stay up. 50/50 may be generous actually.
 

I’ve made a contingency plan for Everton in the championship

Sell big Dom and richy and then play rondon up front as the battering ram aka the new mitrovic and then loan a bunch of Chelsea youth players

————Begovic———-

Patterson—Godfrey—-Branthwaite—Mykolenko

———-Davies——Gilmour———

Broja—-——Alli—————Gordon

—————-Rondon——————

Don’t agree with your winnable home games, I think Utd are there for the taking or at least a point.

We only need Burnley to stop getting points. So a Brentford win is what we need.
 
Our away form is just as important as the home games, in fact more important as far as the next two games go, Burnley and Watford, we cant lose them, they are the two most important games we have left, lose them and forget it
