Match Day Thread Swansea City 1 v 0 Burnley

Disastrous so far. Liverpool must beat Southampton!

 

was hoping both of those went the other way.

 

Going to be a tough second half of the season, very tight at the bottom...........

 

Could go down to the last game of the season.

I guess, after the 5-0 thumping at Anfield, we'd have been happy with that.

Let's hope we can get at least 8 points from next 4 PL matches.

 

Who stepped on your corns?

You, like I and anyone can share an opinion.

I didn't see all the Burnley chances and didn't see them as being better than us.
Apologies about Cork - I didn't realise a reply had to be solely in response to the original post.
I promise to be a good boy in future.

 

I thought Huddersfield might beat Bournemouth but I thought Utd would batter Newcastle. All those top teams, with the exception of Man City are having blips.
Re the Burnley game I was watching MOTD and went to the kitchen to pick up my cuppa when our game started by the time I came back and they were onto the 2nd half. The 1st half could only have lasted 10 nanoseconds!

 

Results were a mixed bag but that's how it is as there are so many teams in the fight to avoid relegation. The good news is that there are a few teams above us are stumbling into our reach. Palace lost, Brighton drew, Watford lost, Bournemouth lost and we are one game away from catching them all.

We play Brighton on 24th and next month we play Southampton and Huddersfield so our destiny is well and truly ours to create. April will be tough though but our last two games are against Bournemouth and Stoke. A month ago we were on our arse but now we have a huge fighting chance, who'd have though that at Christmas.

Bring it on

 

All we have to do is win our home games and pick up points away, We won't win them all i know but it is in our hands now and we never thought that a few weeks ago..

 

Terrible day yesterday for us.

 

We will have a few of those before the season ends...

 

It would have felt a whole lot worse if we hadn't picked up 3pts ourselves on Saturday

 

It would have ended up being a nightmare scenario.

 

we will probably skirt in and out of the relegation spots over the coming weeks, and it shouldn't be cause for alarm considering where we were a short while ago. its just a case of not being in the bottom three when the final whistle goes against Stoke.

 

Chelsea helped out tonight stuffing West Brom plus Sturridge injured.

It is in our hands we just need to have better form than some of these other teams. Real test over the next three games. Brighton are playing better so another big test a week on Saturday.

Can relax this weekend and enjoy the cup.

 

GD might well come into this so need to avoid any batterings which in current form we don't look like getting. Keep the faith everyone

 

West Brom look down and out, no doubt about it. In my opinion they are basically already relegated, however they have to keep up the torrid form of this season.

Stoke have dangerous players, like Shaqiri and Choupo-Moting, and to be honest I’m shocked they’re still in the relegation race let alone in the bottom three. They have a horrible fixture list coming up so that won’t help one bit.

Southampton have played better football as of late and we can expect them to pick up points in the future. They do need to pull themselves together but I think they can do it.

Huddersfield haven’t got the premier league experience and I doubt they have what it takes to stay in the EPL this season. They are a force to be reckoned with however.

Crystal Palace just lost Zaha for a long time, and I’ve never ever in my life seen a team rely on a single player as much as they do on him. Definitely still candidates for the drop.

Brighton also haven’t got the PL experience however they are playing better than Huddersfield and may be able to keep their place this season. My opinion, they won’t go down but they’ll barely be able to keep afloat.

The rest of the teams from 13-10 are all still in the mix in their own right. Crazy to have all these teams still vying to stay up this far into the season. Last year it was just us and hull!!

All of this goes to show how important and immense our victory was on Saturday. Great stuff YJBs, keep it up!!!
