8th to 11th is our range of possible positions after this round of games.

Watford really do need a couple of decent results, don't they?

Newcastle vs Watford is going to be pretty big

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Watford are going to be my second team for the rest of the season, how MASSIVE is their match with Newcastle this weekend

It's a good weekend for 8th to be playing 11th if you ask me.

And do you know what? I'd love it. I'd absolutely love it if they beat them!

On the Monday Night Club they were expressing surprise that they've not got rid of Ranieri given their fixtures over the next eight days...

Newcastle United v Watford
Burnley v Watford
Watford v Norwich City

Their game at Newcastle on Saturday is going to be massive as you say, if Watford can extract all three points from it it will do them an awful lot of good, and if Burnley fail to pick up points against Leicester, will provide them with a nice little buffer zone between them and the relegation places.

Newcastle though need those points even more, and fail to get them would find themselves in even deeper doo do.

Norwich City v Everton 2-1 bye bye Rafa

I'd say that's a trifle speculative, given Norwich have only scored 8 goals in their previous 20 league matches...?

Newcastle United v Watford
Burnley v Watford
Watford v Norwich City

He'll be sacked if they lose this weekend... Not that it helps, its the guys on the pitch that wins and lose games. Newcastle, Watford, Norwich and Manchester United are not exactly storming up the table.

 

[Milano]

There are some cracking matches this weekend - us v them, City v Chelsea, north London derby, Villa v Utd, then SAU Utd v Watford.
Come on Watford!

On the other hand if Watford were to beat that lot then I actually think Howe might be looking over his shoulder (possibly literally…)

Maybe. I think he'll be given a bit more time though. If they continue to lose when they've signed what they're going to sign then its a different story.

The bottom four really are dire, aren't they? Between them they've managed a grand total of 6 points from their last 20 combined games.

The rate they're going they'll only need 28 points to stay up.

Ndidi. Looks like 1st is nailed on for City and it's only 3 from 4 to go down. Not a vintage season for a neutral.

Gutted Newcastle/Watford isn't on TV.

A relegation 6 pointer is EASILY the most fun type of game to watch.

No, it's pretty dull. All the focus is going to be on the comedy aspect. Newcastle possibly going down and the ongoing soap opera at man utd.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Tomorrow's game (Sat 15/1) between Burnley and Leicester has just been postponed due to Covid in the Burnley squad.
Hopefully that will help Leicester to be a bit undercooked next weekend.

- although they will have Spurs at home on Weds night.
