We are roughly 1/4 that we will get at least one win from the 3 games.

We have a defence that can't defend,no midfield creative or otherwise and nobody who knows how to find the net, so sadly no.🙁

We can’t score and Burnley are playing better than they have all season. Doesn’t look good.

Wednesday night is the biggest game of the season. IF we can somehow fluke 3 points I’ll start to believe again.

Will JM start with Joffy up front again or is Bambi going to be fit ? Think he definitely needs to start Bate for us to stand a chance. Cooper back could give us a lift.

Blimey, I’m talking myself into it 😂

How do you come to that conclusion? I understand markets and I don’t see that. What price are Burnley to do the same?

Yes.
We have to stay up and Burnley relegated.
I have a few Burnley mates and i got giddy and was bombarding them with grief texts about Burnley finally being relegated.
Coming back to bite me on the ass.
I have muted said Burnley mates 😆

We can but we won't

Both Burnley and Everton have hit a purple patch and we're in a slump.
We desperately need something from Chelsea as Brighton will be very tough and Brentford away is tricky.

Tbf though at Christmas if you'd have given me that we had to win at Brentford to stay up I would have taken it.

Hard to estimate Burnley given that I cant see any prices for their last 2 games. I've guessed the prices for our last game v Brentford (probably on the generous side) and 1/4 is probably too short ,maybe 1/3 is more realistic.

No they're not.
But nor are we.
Hard to say if a point will be good for us tomorrow.
If Burnley and Everton both win their next games, only a point against Chelsea will seem like a disaster.

Burnley may well loose against spurs Sunday. And villa could well do the double over them next week.. but I can see them getting 3 points against Newcastle which means we would need 4 points from remaining games. Vital

Injuries are mounting up at Burnley now

Out for this season
Vydra
Westwood
Gudmundsen

Mee expected back for their final game of the season on the 22nd May

Tarkowski (hamstring) 75% chance of playing in their next game.

Rodrigeuz (hamstring) 50% chance of playing in their next game.

Can someone nobble Pope? :lol:

Cant see us winning another game this season, theres a total disconnect between defence and attack with a non existed midfield, Marsch dosnt seem to have the answers for it - which you cant really blame him for given the players at his disposal. Im at the point where I dont want to be at the edge of this precipice any more tip us over or take a step back - either way I just want it done.

That's the key for me. Chelski at home... we really need to win that one for me they are not the team they were for obvious reasons a few months back. Win that and we just may get the lift we need. I wouldn't want to be going to Brentford on the last day needing anything personally,, I think they will revel in sending us down.

Football is football to me whatever division we are in. Until i multi-Billionaire gets on board everyone else is just making up the numbers. As others have stated we have been spoiled for the last three years its the thought of watching that slow pandantic football again that bothers me most. We already seen to be heading in that direction.

Not sure if anyone noticed recently but Chelski have a lot of decent players and when they hit they tend to hit quite big.

Off the boil but battered Soton 6-0, all our players are lost atm and don't seem to grasp any plan, i don't blame them coz i can't see it either.

Baton down the hatches i say, try and nick a point, if we lose Burnley go against Spurs with a game in hand and nowt to lose.

A slump?? Not sure I would call losing to Citeh at home and Arsenal on the road a slump. Citeh are one of the 5 best teams in the world right now and are in the driver's seat to be Premier League Champions. I actually thought LUFC looked decent in that match.

The Arsenal match was mostly about one man's mental break. Luke Ayling was a central figure in each sequence that led to Arsenal goals. He then apparently got tired of Gabriel Martinelli going round him like an orange traffic cone and decided to get himself sent off. With the "Skipper" down the tunnel Leeds looked much better. Actually scored a goal and made it interesting for the remainder of the match.

Can we stay up? The short answer is yes. just one point more than Burnley will get the job done. The problem is that this team couldn't score in a Nevada Brothel so I have no idea where the goals will come from. Luckily a scoreless draw might suffice....

Of course we can stay up, but I think the next game is critical. Everton won their home game with Chelsea when it mattered, and we have got to do the same. If we can do that, the pressure is back on Burnley and they have a tough away game at Spurs who are fighting Arsenal for the last Champions league spot. That is followed by an away game at Villa, who beat them convincingly last week. If we lose to Chelsea then Burnley have a free hit at Spurs and a better goal difference than us, so I think in that instance we would be doomed.
