WBA won. Now I think they're out of this. Palace might get dragged. They haven't win for too long.

Swansea lost.

Watford 2. I think Palace might feel some pressure. I think they have hard fixtures coming with bad form. a tricky team that could implode.

They are on 29, 6 points less than Newcastle last season, who managed to stay on 35 until the last two games. Them and Palace if they lose now, are the teams from them midtable who could dragged easily in the relegation battle. We ourselves have been on 34 I think 10th or something. We've managed to lose 6 and needed a win against Hull to secure safety. Every team losing each week is a bonus, Palace downwards.

I don't want to be greedy, But an Everton goal and this would change to a very good day to Villa, atleast than it has looked couple of minutes ago!

Things are looking much better than 5 minutes ago lol. Long may it continue !

Yesss.

West Ham 1 !! C'mon.

Good news, Swansea are losing.

Here we go again !

I saw couple of minutes from WBA game. Everton hit the bar twice ! WHU seem to do rubbish stuff. C'mon Carroll. Do something. Atleast a draw.

So apart from Stoke smashing Bournemouth, things aren't looking that good. Especially at Norwich !

Here we go. Adebayor !

It will matter later though. If they kept winning. I think who said it doesn't matter they meant recently it doesn't make a big difference as if someone else won.

It was better had they lost. But if we win tomorrow and things went our way today it could still be a good week. For now, Two results are going our way although not directly. Bournmouth and Palace losing. WBA are winning which isn't good but hopefully Everton could turn in around as they're doing good. More importantly, Norwich, Newcastle and Swansea hopefully lose.

If people are saying Veretout began poorly. Then how did Cleverly began? The whole team started badly. Veretout came from another level and new to the league. All these factors says that Veretout is a much better signing. Wether Cleverly had completed his form had hecstayed and help us gaining more points or not thats another case. Veretout didnt have the chances Cleverly had last season also.

Gabby is much better. Maybe not technically but overall.

He isnt bad defending. Anyway sometimes attacking from fb is easier than a winger because there is a space. You could see it in Bacuna. Although this guy is one of our best attacking players anyway, I would better say he is our Leighton Baines. I dont think he would do his best as a winger.

I really hope he is ready. Useful option definitly.

Its not this easy. We are a team with new players mismanaged. Changed manager who havent find his best formation and team until the last 5 games. So judging us as a whole would be somehow misleading. We are definitly not playing like the bottom team. We havent been thrashed apart from Everton. All of our games have been tight. We are hard to beat lately. If you took the fact we are far away and told me wether I would change our teams and the managers. I wouldnt risk it with some of the teams around us.

He doesnt need to be consistent. Win us 4-6 games out of 13 Would worth him his contract. Even without another goal in his career if we stayed up. Which is less than half of the games.

I meant with 3 to go. From what I remember we havent won on May since winning against Arsenal and Liverpool. So basically we still didnt need winning the last 2 and still managed to stay up. We need to work somehow better to do the job. If we win against Liverpool I would definitly give us a good chance. As its a big bonus.

If we completed the same form as the last 5 games. We will get another 16 in the next 10. Making us 32 with 13 to go. Ofcourse there are some hard games in these fixtures. But we were better than West Ham before the red. Outplayed West Brom. Outplayed Leicester in the second half. Its not only the results but the performances. Weve only lost twice at home under Garde. One of them was one of our better attacking performances. If the season began now I really think we wouldnt have been where we are. I didnt have confidence in the team since Lambert first season and Sherwood. Those two season weve started playing as a team after we were trully dire. The only difference is we are worse in terms of points. Ofcourse we are lacking Benteke. Last season out of nowhere Cleverly scored 3 important goals. Gained us 6 piints and one of them gave us confidence. Veretout gelling and scoring. Traore coming back firing. Grealish starts his form again. Gabby doing things right when it matters. And who knows. Another 5 wins couple of draws before Newcastle, and tgen who knows. Weve got 5 wins last season after this stage. Actually weve had all 5 after March. And all of them before May. The only difference is Benteke. Apart from that we are better now as whole team.

Some are saying we need 8 wins? We havent done more than 10 since Houllier season which we only had 12. Infact weve stayed up under Mcleash with only 7 wins. Going to last game safe. I know weve lost too much on the first round, couple more draws would have helped. We have 12 games excluding Arsenal. 2 write offs all of these are away. The other 10 are 3 6-pointers one away. And the other 7 are mixture of midtable and top half teams. If we win the must win games and three of the rest. We would be on 34 points. Winning Liverpool for me would suggest we have a chance more than when Sherwood came. As we would need on win more but in terms of form weve clicked on earlier. People kept saying other teams winning wont matter. Had Swansea failed to win against Watford and not sure who else. We would have been only 5 points from them for example. Same goes with Newcastle winning vs West Ham. If Leicester wasnt catching teams andbeing in touch last season I doubt they would have done it. I hope all results goed our way tomorrow, would give us a relief before our game.
