BaltimoreBird 127 Posted February 15, 2020 This was the last game on the fixture list that I saw us grabbing zero from. Little did I know Norwich would grab all the confidence in the world from this game. There isn't a point on the schedule that we can't claim. I'm confident in 6 wins with more to come. We're staying up, book it. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lake district canary 4,530 Posted February 15, 2020 I hope you're right. Everything to play for, that is for sure and if we start getting a tiny bit of luck we might still mount a challenge to stay up. So disappointed we couldn't get something today, but as you say we should get some confidence from that performance. Onwards and hopefully upwards! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is almost no chance of us getting enough points to stay up, but I would be delighted to pay you out if it happens! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

king canary 7,562 Posted February 16, 2020 So having lost 16 out of 26 you now think we'll finish the season 12 unbeaten? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JF 694 Posted February 16, 2020 we’re likely to need 20 points from that 36. Doable but highly unlikely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,920 Posted February 16, 2020 Not happening but we’re still in the cup which will be the priority come Spurs matchday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
unique 434 Posted February 16, 2020 It’s ‘all or nothing’ now. We need to get back to what we know best. Two full-backs attacking down the flanks, putting in plenty of crosses. If that needs ‘three at three at the back’ to facilitate it, then time to switch. Buendia has to start every game, and with his goals record, Cantwell possibly too. Farke looks to make changes at ‘60minutes’, if needed. The run-in is for fourteen players giving ‘everything’ in every game. We’ve run out of excuses. Farke needs to step up.

Capt. Pants 4,194 Posted February 16, 2020 The huge issue for me is that Pukki is not scoring but his overall play is good. Buendia seems to be way off form now too, could still be carrying a knock but those two need to be on tip top form if we are going to have even an outside chance. Also looks like only 2 fit fullbacks for a while, hopefully Byram is not long term. A bit of an altercation between Zimmermann and McLean after the Mane goal and Zimbo went straight down the tunnel at the end. A lot of challenges for Farke but realistically for me is can he deliver promotion next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add our attacking talent, against inferior defences to those we've faced this season, and we should be confident of challenging, no guarantees, of course but smart sales and additions will help.

Making Plans 936 Posted February 16, 2020 There is all to play for and nothing is impossible. However draws are not going to be enough now and we need to show more attacking intent and make more chances. If that leaves us more open at the back then that is the risk we have to take. After 70 minutes yesterday we had a chance of winning that game but after 80 minutes we were only ever going to lose it. If we are to win games and get the points needed then we have no option but to go for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
