It doesn't mean we'll survive, but Brentford have a challenging set of fixtures remaining

Interesting because they play all of the teams directly above us. Double edged sword; Brentford wins it's bad, they lose those it's not great for us either.

We need to find 6 wins from somewhere otherwise it won't really matter what they do.

At the end of the day it's better if they come down with us, which they probably will.

It doesn't really matter what everyone else does, the first third of the season set our fate as, unsurprisingly after selling your best player and signing 11 new ones, it took us far too long to start playing well enough to win games. It's astounding we're even still in with a shout of survival at this point given how truly awful we were in that period, but still can't see us staying up. Would take a divine miracle run of form.

You just know Eriksen will make his debut against us...which will bring its own problems

Would you want to be the first opposition to play against him and be wondering how hard you can to go in on him?

Even if there's a split second of doubt and you stand off him, he's good enough to then put one in the top corner from 25 yds

It’s going to be next week against NEWCASTLE.

If they win the next three they're pretty much safe.

That will put them on 33, which will be enough this season, if we were on that total now and have no confidence of picking up any more points to the end of season, I’d be breathing a little bit better by now!.

Brentford are not our concern table position or relegation candidate wise, but a team we are capable of beating.

So you think Liverpool away is equally as challenging as Brentford at home? Really?  What a load of old tosh

Considering Brentford have to play us Watford Burnley Newcastle Leeds and Everton I don’t think the fixtures look especially difficult, and if anything closer to favourable for them. 

That’s the bottom 6 teams in the league excluding them out of their last 12 games! Plenty of opportunity for points in there.

Personally, I think that's not a very challenging set of games. Like us, they have played Man City and Liverpool, and unless they really collapse, they should be able to get enough points from those games to scrape to safety.

who are we going to hang our hat on if Brentford beat Newcastle and Burnley?

Leicester, losing again today and we still have to play them.

So much quality there but the fans have turned on Rodgers. £200,000 a week too for a season of crap.

Brentford will be fine. Whenever we want things to go our way they never do. So I’m fairly sure they’ll turn around their poor form

What an odd post. I don't think there's an easier run-in for another team. They're playing all the teams below them. Sure, there's four tough games in there, but the rest are winnable.
