At the start of the season, the only two teams that I feared were Man City and Liverpool. Obviously, Leicester have become an unstoppable force again this season, so they're now unbeatable most weeks too. But every other team in the league has had poor and shaky spells, and Smith needs to set us up to win against all of them. Stranger things have happened. We have taken Liverpool to 87 minutes leading at home......and played Leicester away to a draw. The crucial thing is, its about us, not the opposition....we are obsessed with the opposition......its all about us. We need to understand that.

VillaChris Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 West Ham and Burnley the key next few weeks. Hopefully West Ham only take a point off Everton tomorrow (don't really like that Richarlison and Sigurdsson are out for them. Feels like a lazy Everton defeat like at Anfield), don't beat Brighton and lose v Liverpool twice and at Man. City. Would leave them on 24 points by start of March. Burnley's fixtures up to 22nd Feb are Leicester and Arsenal at home and Man. United away. Also got Southampton away who'll hopefully stay relatively inform. Can see Burnley grinding out a couple of draws but would still leave them on 26 points. With what we have over next six games I think we need to be above both by start of March to have a serious shot of staying up. I also think Bournemouth will eventually get going again, they have Norwich and Brighton next, can see them winning one of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Tottenham once again looking very poor against one of our relegation rivals. At least Watford have missed a penalty, could do with them losing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Watford get a point from Spurs. Eh, we are in trouble this season, the points required to stay up is going to be a Premiership record if this carries on....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Think Watford will be fine either way. They have a really solid squad. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to show some bottle against them. We were only a few minutes away from getting a draw down there on the first day and then Kane decided things. They really are nothing special.

VillaChris Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 (edited) All in all not a bad day at all. West Ham not winning could be big in the long run I suspect. With their away fixtures they can't afford to have too many home draws. Edited January 18, 2020 by VillaChris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Right at the end of the Spurs game they came as close to scoring as you can get without scoring, just one more millimetre and it would have been over the line,, and we would be out of the bottom three now, by virtue of the fact that we've scored more goals than Watford.
