Home to Man Utd, Palace, Ipswich, Chelsea and Everton isn't, Villa and Arsenal away are like.

Man United and Palace are like and so is Everton now under Moyes. Chelsea are easily as capable as Newcastle.

We're not prime Barcelona... We can lose games as we've shown.

Am I right in thinking that Chelsea could face a points deduction if the ridiculous women’s team sale is found to be over inflated?

This would require the PL to pull their finger out, which in itself is highly unlikely.

I think the PL have pretty much waved that through. UEFA are looking at it but they generally just work in fines which Chelsea won't care about

So can all of our competitors.
If everyone around us wins all their games then we will likely struggle but that is not going to happen.

I think we win the next 2 and at that point we have the points on the board and the rest have to hunt us.

Should we win the next 3, which we can especially with Villa having to play PSG meaning no disadvantage from our midweek game, then we are in a great position

Absolutely, but forest and City have far easier fixtures imo so it's less likely they will than us. I also don't like the fact Newcastle are having to chase every week.

I agree and I think Newcastle have to win the next two, but I have major doubts whether they will.

Villa away and Brighton away are defeats I think...they've got better depth and we're down to the bare bones.

Only if we win them.

You don't want to be chasing when we go away to villa.

We can beat both of them this week.
Palace will be hurting from that thumping and not looking forward to coming up to us.

ManU have so little attacking threat if you shut down Fernandes. We just need to exploit that

I really hope so, but they're both very difficult games imo. If we can lose to Bournemouth and Fulham we can lose to Man Utd and Palace.. Margins between those sides are small.

If we don't win then we're out the race imo.
 
Think I'll support and watch Southampton because I ain't liking the idea of wanting the Merseyside makems to win.
