Yes for sure.
Of course I may well be proved wrong but I think we will be looking to be tight at Sheff United and certainly not lose the point we start with. Our record against the lower sides (excepting Newcastle) is pretty dire. Whilst many thought Fulham were the side to watch it is turning out to be perhaps WBA. Sam gets results, probably too late for this season but result wise he is doing pretty well.

I have to say I am expecting Saturday's game to be a grim affair. At this stage of the season I am not turning down any point, we can draw our way to safety.
That said let's just flipping win, we are better than them. I'd like to be able to use the end of season games to give the likes of Karbo and Caciedo etc some gametime to see what they can offer us next season.

Look up, not down. Palace and Southampton's next games are both Leicester and they both look like they're on the beach already. A win against Sheffield United, followed by them both losing puts us above Southampton and within a point of Palace. Palace have to play Leicester, Man City, Arsenal, Villa, Sheffield United & Liverpool and their game in hand is against Southampton. Most would probably be predicting somewhere between two and seven points from that. We shouldn't be looking to limp over the line, we should be looking to end the season with the results that the performances have deserved. We can catch these bums.

I'll take 3 points, not one. The other teams can do what they like then.
3 points please....nothing less
I’m probably totally wrong but I just feel like the team is now playing without fear and I’m thinking we’re gonna ‘ave em’

No.
5 points from 6 games against the bottom 3 would be an abysmal 'effort'.

They aren't a terrible side really and we struggle against the lower rated teams.
They are relegated and will be playing freely.
Suspect we will stand a better chance of beating West Ham and Leeds.
I would be disappointed losing to them, but would happily take a point.

Silly old bat
It won't be easy as the Blades can now relax knowing that however they play, they are gone. Relegated sides usually pick up strange results.
It may be a draw, a win, or a loss.

We have a crap record over the bottom 3 this year so I'd take a point regardless of what West Brom and Fulham do, to be honest. With our GD intact they'd then have to get 12 points and 9 points from their remaining 7 games and 5 games respectively; and that's if we didn't pick up a single point from our last 5, which is not going to happen.
Yes please.
