No, because I believe we can get points against Spurs and/or Man U and even against Liverpool or Man C if they are meaningless games for oppo. It may not seem like it, but we may be lucky playing top teams late in season.
I said after the Arsenal game, I didn't like the 'we are staying up' chants. I don't like the idea that it's 'job done'. Last season we built the entire season on promotion, nothing more. So when we achieved that v Wigan, we celebrated, job done. Then let up for the rest of the season and failed to win the title despite a 7 point lead over 2nd place. We'd made such a big deal about promotion being the aim that we weren't up for fight for the title.
We have made survival in the premier the only aim this season. Snap your hand off for 17th place. We just about beat an underperforming, out-of-sorts, low on confidence Arsenal and celebrate like we did - the players did too. It was like there was an assumption it was job done. I know Hughton has been talking about not being safe yet, but he also talked about winning the title last season while we struggle to get up for the fight in any of the games. Making mistakes, not taking our chances. etc. We have Man City, Man U, Liverpool and Tottenham to play, long with a Huddersfield side we always struggle against, an in form Burnley side, and an anything can happen derby away against Palace. That is not a run in that feels me with confidence.
Maybe we'll stay up even if we don't win another point (WBA, Stoke, Southampton and West Ham are all struggling though a couple of wins changes everything).
I really wish we had an attitude of seeing our targets as a bare minimum rather than the be-all end-all.
Shitting it for what exactly? The possibility of being relegated and watching exciting football in the Championship as we have done in previous seasons ( Hyppia excluded ), or shitting it because we may have to go through this all over again next season?
Either way......
And despite their winless/goalless run at the start of the season, I can see Palace finishing comfortably above us, and that would be a serious disappointment to me.
