We all know that Swansea is *Must Win* and Huddersfield is *Must Win*.
Other than that let's not shag around, let's get the points as soon as possible.
Leicester without mahrez(let's hope they haven't patched things up by then) are not that great, they seem to be in slight disarray and will probably have nothing to play for by the time we play them.
Burnley will be on the beach by the time we play them feeling mildly confident, although I wouldn't be surprised if we lose to Stoke and people start panicking again.

Have you seen how they've played the last few game?

Now without Fer and Bony for the rest of the season. We've nothing to fear from Swansea, provided we turn up.

A couple of years or so old, but interesting article

For what it's worth, think we will need 10 more points - Feb was always going to be a massive month. So far so good.

Unlucky, palace.
Indeed, Palace are now one point behind, just like us. Unlike us though they haven't just signed two forwards, and by far their best player is crocked.

Call me Mad.....call me crazy!! but I think we will get between 12 to 15 points out of the remaining games, we will stay up, if for no other reason than there is some right crap down there! It will be 3 out of the present bottom 4 in my opinion, West Brom - Huddersfield - Stoke City - Swansea City - take Swansea's last 2 games out of the equation (nothing more than a flash in the pan their manager is crap!) all 4 teams are in deep crap! boring, desperate and quite frankly don't deserve Prem footy.
Now stand easy, knowing that we WILL be playing Prem footy next season

Still 1 point behind!! However I would take that at the end and be on 39 points!!

Make that last three....still a flash in the pan ?
This, but we’re playing better now, hopefully over the slump we had and with a much stronger squad. Think we’ll get 39, and it’ll be enough if we continue like this.

Yep still one point behind. Possibly should have got all three yesterday, but in the end it felt like a point won. Odd.
Can't help but feel that our best chances of getting bonus points were against Saints and Stoke, but we still have Palace away and who knows maybe a cheeky bonus point at home to one of the big guys?
Massive pressure to now beat Swansea, Huddersfield and Leicester at home if we can't get something from the bigger teams.
Note, Palace also remain one point behind their tracker.

Getting over the 30 point barrier could be a real boost when/if we do it.
