Next three games crucial in race for top four.

Liverpool next three games: WBA home, Swansea home, Wigan away.

Spurs next three games: West Ham away, Arsenal home, Liverpool away

Arsenal next three games: Villa home, Spurs away, Everton home.

Everton next three games: Norwich away, Reading Home, Arsenal away.

Time for us to break the trend of the last 2 years and grab 3 wins on the trot. Otherwise.. Game over I feel.

At the start of the Season I didnt consider us a realistic threat to 4th... Still don't but we need to WIN more than 2 on the trot and hope the others stumble..

Within these 3 games we'll know if we're in the race or not.

I'm tired of us saying things like this. We should treat every game as pivotal. We should want to win every day. Each game is 3 points; no more, no less.

Why do we always struggle there? They are a really poor side and I hope they go down this year!

Very true.

However given our fixtures and our rivals fixtures over these next 3 games. It could either very much be on or all over...

you've probably just jinxed it. Everytime we've had a 'next x games are crucial' over the last few seasons, I can't ever remember us pulling off the best case scenario.

Realistic?

Liverpool next three games: WBA home(3), Swansea home (3), Wigan away (1).

Spurs next three games: West Ham away (3), Arsenal home (1), Liverpool away (0)

Arsenal next three games: Villa home (3), Spurs away(1), Everton home (1)

Everton next three games: Norwich away (3), Reading Home (3), Arsenal away (1)

LFC = 7 points ?
Spurs = 4?
Arsenal = 5?
Everton = 7?

Everton could very well collapse though so those 7 could be far less.

We're what 12 pointd behind? Could close the gap to under 10 with 10 games to play...

I don't see us winning 3 on the trot. But if we did..

W/W/D/D/W/W/D/W/L/W/D/W/W from our remaining games.. That equates to 28 points from a possible 33... or finishing on 64 points..

Most of the games should be doable.. Spurs, Chelsea and Everton being our hard games. Which I've given us a D/L/W in respectively.
