Just an update on the current situation (was bored and pissed off!); just amended Jd's earlier post and added
Portsmouth & Man city's threats. The injuries/fatigue really afftected us today and i just hope its not the start of
a bad run of form; fingers crossed; come one moyesy you need to get them all fired up and remotivated - hopefully a whole
weeks training should get them all firing again
Liverpool's run-in (59 pts, 8 games left):
Less than 3 points is disappointing (for them) - Blackburn, @Fulham, @Birmingham, Man City
Any points are a bonus - @ManU, @Arsenal
Same as us, they have four they "should" win and two they "should" lose.
Key games will be against us and @Tottenham to end the season.
Everton's run-in (56 pts, 8 games left):
Less than 3 points is disappointing - West Ham, Derby, @Birmingham, Newcastle
Any points are a bonus - Chelsea, @Arsenal
Four we "should" win, two we "should" lose.
Key games will be @Liverpool and Aston Villa. But we already knew that.
Portsmouth's run-in (50 pts, 8 games left):
Less than 3 points is disappointing (for them) - Wigan, Newcastle, Blackburn, @Boro, Fulham,
Key games will be @spurs this saturday, @ West Ham, @ Man City
Aston Villa's run-in (49 pts, 8 games left):
Less than 3 points is disappointing (for them) - Sunderland, Bolton, @Derby, Wigan, @West Ham
Any points are a bonus - @ManU
Five they "should" win and only one they "should" lose.
Key games are against us and home to Birmingham(derby).
Manchester City's Run in (48 pts, 8 games left):
Less than 3 points is disappointing (for them) - @Bolton, @Birmingham, @Sunderland, Fulham, @Boro
Any points a bonus - Chelsea, @Liverpool
Key game Portsmouth
Given injuries atm I'm getting increasingly nervous about Portmouth's threat as they have a strong squad (including a
rejuvenized Defoe!) and there run-in is the easiest. Even though Shitteh won today can't see them coming close with
the amount of away games they've got against relegation battlers. Discuss..
