[Albion] Stoke, Southampton, Swansea & Huddersfield. Remaining Fixtures.

[Bold Seagull]

As stated many times before on these threads hudds have arsenal to play at home. Currently one of the easiest fixtures in the premier league calendar !

 

[Mellotron]

Not only that, but returning to looking a bloody good side again where picking up another point or so really doesn’t look beyond us at all. We can go to Turf Moor with a spring in our step.

This - is why I felt last night's point was so huge. We shouldn't fear our remaining fixtures now, and know that we CAN get results against the big teams.

 

[Triggaaar]

Maybe, depending on results between now and the 28th, Dyche and Hughton might "shake" on a 0-0 draw?

Let's get this done!

plus Burnley play TWICE before we go there, chances of injuries,suspensions etc for them and a 9 day rest for our boys

we can win there - we are due to win there - or Kayal to stamp on a midfielder, win a free kick and draw the game 2-2

 

[Kazenga <3]

That's tailor made for another Arsenal f**k up. Hudd's energetic midfield with home crowd backing, versus on-the-beach / at-the-WC prima donna's scared of injuries.

Not so sure, could be Wenger's last game and they'd want to give him a send off you'd think.

 

[Triggaaar]

The bottom line - Stains, Stoke and WBA are all in deep poo.

WBA aren't in deep poo, they're in the Championship. That's a given.

 

[Triggaaar]

Are you saying we have no 'must win' or 'must draw' games left?

Yes - I reckon we were safe on 34 points, so 36 is already over the threshold.

If we lose our remaining 4 games, will we stay up? - Probably. But not definitely.

I had been (wishfully) thinking that, but the old ****er might stay on yet.

Definitely maybe.

Definite.

 

[warmleyseagull]

We will beat Manchester United at home, it's a given landmark result in the making.

Yup, I picked this one out of the 5 as being best possibility for 3 points. Unlucky in both away games against Manure.

 

[warmleyseagull]

Undoubtedly, Stoke and Southampton have a lot of work to do but Oldham 1993 is in the back of the mind. 8 points adrift with 3 games to go, first against title chasing Villa (how times change!) and they pulled it off. Once in a 100 occurrence but it is possible. I wanted to give Conte a hug on Saturday.

 

[BensGrandad]

Could all be over by Sunday nigh virtually but definitely by 5pm at Burnley

 

[Triggaaar]

I'm going through each game, predicting the results.
I can't see Stoke getting the 9 points they need to pass us.
Swansea should get enough, and Huddersfield could do it at home to Everton, or with 2 draws.

It's (nearly) all about Southampton. They need 2 wins and 2 draws, or 3 wins. That's not exactly beyond the realms of possibility, but then I've not taken into account just how bad they've been. We have to go back to November since they won a league game that wasn't against WB. How did they go from a decent team to being so shit?

They seem to have constantly sold their best players and I guess it’s caught up with them now.
Lessons I hope we’ll heed

Arsenal fans been hoping for that for 10 years !

 

[Is it PotG?]

Were safe

 

[larus]

Were safe

We were? Why not now?

 

[Pavilionaire]

I assume Shaqiri and Bertrand will go to the big 7 but of the rest I'd be interested in Gibbs, Redmond, Tadic, Rondon and Austin.

Austin is too much of a sicknote. Brilliant finisher though. That away game at QPR still sticks in the craw.
