I can’t see us picking up a single point away from home for the rest of the season. The fans are buying into Lampard’s enthusiasm and attacking style of play and that gives us an edge at home, but away from home we are incorrigibly bad. We are still in dire straits and it’s touch and go as to whether we stay up.

It's not just a matter of home or away / poor teams or good teams we face. For me it's down to how we set up under Lampard for the run in.

The games where he's set up to play a bit of football we have been handed demoralising defeats in. The games where he remembers what the level of quality of player he has to work with and tells them to get behind the ball, to work hard to get a toe hold in and be patient there's been success.

If we play like we did against Leeds and City, and again against Newcastle then we have to be in with a great chance of survival. I think we'll get a couple of away results along the way if we just get into a stubborn shape to break down and wait our chance to snap up a goal.

There's 15 points for us in the last 11 if FL gets us into a method of approaching ALL games and stick with it and dont try and be too clever (expansive).
 

We are missing Mina so much at the back...he seems to be the only proper cb we have. The rest is hot and cold...no consistency and mostly crap. If we can have him back for some fixtures we have a chance to get something from those
 
We've got to just almost entirely write off pretty much all away games as a dead loss at this point. Its just not happening. We've just got to use all our remaining home fixtures as best we can. Make Goodison evil every single game and hope that's enough. If we can just avoid defeat (because we absolutely aren't winning either game) at Burnley and Watford then that would be a MASSIVE bonus too

This really. We are unbelievably gutless away from home.

Away games he needs to follow what Ancelotti did; literally 2 blocks of 4 and nothing else

No we cant write it off need to fight for every point. I kno its frustrating but just have to get behind them again and again until the season is over
