We've still got Watford away (7 points at home all season, 10 straight home losses) and Everton at home (6 points away all season, 7 straight away losses) which is a bit ominous because there's no way we'll turn that into 6 points.

Lucas Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Fucking Burnley. They are that irritating prick on the whatsapp group that posts the shit gifs and forwards the unfunny videos that no one responds to. You just want to kick them out but you can't as you're not the group admin. Sigh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we are so poor on the road that we have to look at Man Utd and Chelsea at home as games where we can get something. Man Utd are almost as soft-centred as us and Chelsea seem to be all over the shop. I fancy us in those three home games more than I do going to the likes of Burnley and Watford, which is still not very much. Sometimes people know a thing or two about their own clubs hey?

Claret and Blue Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 I've said for weeks there's always twists towards the end. Results when you don't expect it. Good win for Everton fair play. Pickford pulled off some fine saves You boys still got Watford and Leicester to play too.. .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injuries accumulating again, fixtures look unfavourable, goal difference is horrendous but more importantly, Burnley have somehow found form from nowhere and Everton are finding that way to shithouse wins at home. Newcastle, Man Utd, Chelsea. I don't think they did enough to win any of those on reflection and it feels like maybe the rub of the green is going their way at home but it's not about that really, they are taking their chance and managing to see it out. Credit where its due, they are keeping clean sheets and that gives you half a chance whether you create much or you don't. If we go down, technically we'll have deserved it based on that goal difference but it does feel exceptionally harsh with what we have had to battle. We are going to need to find an upset from somewhere and absolutely pray some results turn in our favour. Can't see it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's not loads in the form to suggest Everton will get 11 more points but there was also nothing to suggest Burnley would go and get 7 points in 3 games. It can happen. From my own experience teams with nothing to play for are your best opposition. I remember it quite well in our own great escape, our run in was lovely. Brentford at home is a fixture they won 4-1 in the cup. It isn't unreasonable to think they'll win that game. We lost to Spurs although you are right that we've picked up at home. Albeit I still don't think we're playing brilliantly. If we play as disinterested as we did against Villa, Everton can get something here. Watford away is the easiest fixture in the division. I've been kind to them. They could easily totally flunk it but their run in is the best of the three for me. One game in and Everton are actually overperforming my prediction. I'm standing by what I said - they're going to survive. Their home form, and a trip to the most disgracefully bad home side I've ever seen will keep them up. They have a very good run in. Leeds are going to have to really pull something out of the bag now. They've become the bookies favourites today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This party isn't over yet somebody will lose and others will pick up wins nobody is expecting Our players clearly stopped putting it in for dyche. Now they've been banging on about freedom at least 5 of 6 of our players said that Against Watford at the weekend game could of been over before we scored. We was utter shit first half. It's mental that dyche won 4 games in 30. Jackson has won 3 games out of 4.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would really help a lot. Thanks. But seriously, I think there are many twists and turns to come. On paper, Leeds go down but football is not played on paper.

I don't think Phillips will want to stay and will strong arm his way out. He will have no shortage of suitors from Man United, Liverpool, Newcastle and you can probably find a team like West Ham and Spurs involved if say Rice and Hojbjerg are moved.

Most teams would be happy for everton to drop down just to avoid an awkward trip to Goodison. Burnley have some momentum going at the right time of the season, while Leeds just got fixtured, a week ago Leeds looked safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
