So what do we need to happen:
- West Ham win v Watford
- Southampton win v Bournemouth
- Man City smash Watford
- We take something v Arsenal
- We beat West Ham who are safe and on the beach
- Arsenal beat Watford

Simple right ;-)



Doddle. Might even go down to GD if Watford lose all 3 and we beat West Ham plus hope that Bournemouth slip up as well.

Tonight's game is looking good from a goal difference perspective!

West Ham are now safe.  5.0 would be better.

Bournemouth are the worry for me. We’ve been busy talking about West Ham and Watford, but Bournemouth are best placed to sneak out of it imo.
I’d swap our two remaining fixtures with them in a heartbeat!

I’d say we’re the big worry. We need to win both games, which is a massive ask. If we don’t do that the other teams are totally irrelevant.

Other than Norwich, every other team seems to have much more fight than we do.

Bournemouth are awful. Worse than us. The Leicester result was down to Leicester doing everything just legally short of literally chucking the ball in their own net 4 times.

Bournemouth really shouldn't be a worry on the basis they've lost 19 of their last 25 league games, picking up 15 points from a possible 75!

Leicester was an anomaly. I can't see them getting another point.

If we play with intensity and fire we can beat Arsenal. 2 up front. Put Luiz under the spotlight. That can happen.

However Dean won't do that. Sit back, show respect and we'll lose.

Which two, the two that we've needed to show some gumption but still can't muster a solitary goal between them to save our lives, those two?
