Mr X Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 The next five games will decide whether we remain in the relegation zone at Xmas & I think have a huge impact on our chances of staying up I see 5 points from the fixtures, what do you think? Saints - Everton 1 point Arsenal - Saints 0 points Saints - Watford 1 point Saints - Norwich 3 points Newcastle - Saints 0 points Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my Moto G (4) using TapatalkI do indeed. Redmond picking up some Form, Djenepo coming back from Injury. Boufal looking good. McCarthy hopefully back in goal, showed some defensive solidarity today that will hopefully boost our defensive confidence. All fine lines though as we know. I said it at the time but the freak Leicester result may just galvanise the team and make us more resilient, which was on show today Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nta786 Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 Everton W (will predict us winning 2-0) Arsenal L (think this will be a thumping Arsenal win too after an international break) Watford D (on Sky Sports against a somewhat bogey team at home) Norwich W (not resounding mind, a bog standard 1-0) Newcastle L (hate going up there, 2-1 to Newcastle) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 8 points gets us firmly back on track. Doable. Any less than 5 and we are relegation fodder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint97 Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 If Djenepo is fit... Saints - Everton - Draw Arsenal - Saints - Draw Saints - Watford - Win Saints - Norwich - Win Newcastle - Saints - Lose Got to be getting minimum of four points from Watford and Norwich.

fanimal Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 When was the last time we won 3 games at home on the trot? Would love to say 10 points but 8 more likely. Will be a crucial season defining period! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SKD Posted 2 November, 2019 Share Posted 2 November, 2019 All winable, 2 a must win, 1 or 2 a must not lose. I think we’ll pick up 5 points (1 win against Norwich draw against Watford and Newcastle) Relegation all but confirmed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norwich are no mugs. And we’ll lose to Newcastle. Weirdly I think we’ll beat Arsenal and thus be Emery’s last game. Draw with Everton. So I think 4 points. Still in relegation zone.

Lighthouse Posted 3 November, 2019 Share Posted 3 November, 2019 Draw Watford, beat Norwich, lose the rest, four points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 3 November, 2019 Share Posted 3 November, 2019 We’ve got to pick up two home wins from those. Even if we do, that would be two wins from eight home matches, which is rubbish. So, I would say a fair target is 8 points (two home wins, one home draw and a point from the two aways). Everton game is key. A chance to make some amends at home and go into this run with some confidence. Lost to Everton and write off Arsenal away and we’re into a run of six pointers on the back of awful form. I’m just not sure we’ve got it in us defensively to string a run together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we bring in a coach Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Well, they're not are they and previously held the record for biggest tanking this year so... That said I am not overly optimistic either but we do need to beat both Newcastle and Watford and could do with beating Everton too. But if we keep picking the same bland defensive three in midfield, messing with defence) and not giving the creating elements in our team the chance to thrive we won't score enough goals let alone get enough points. Keeping them out should be something of a priority too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the saint in winchester Posted 3 November, 2019 Share Posted 3 November, 2019 I think we can win the 3 home games, so 9 points, for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m just not sure we’ve got it in us defensively to string a run together. In fairness we've had a fairly rough start at home fixtures wise. How many points would you expect from Liverpool, Man Utd, Bournemouth, Chelsea and Leicester? I'd say Bournemouth should have been a win, but one point from the other four isn't *that* bad given they're all in the mix for the Champions League (results wise from Chelsea and Leicester is a different story, granted). Agree with the rest though- we simply have to win against Everton, by hook or by crook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Fan CaM Posted 6 November, 2019 Share Posted 6 November, 2019 5 points from the 15 on offer. That is realistically where we are right now. Not good enough...relegation form. An Everton win (nothing less) will help to set the stage however and is therefore is hugely pivotal. Ralph needs to play a blinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 6 November, 2019 Share Posted 6 November, 2019 You mean we aren't already? Not yet. We’ve had tough fixtures, we were always going to be low on points barring some outstanding performances that we just don’t have the players to accomplish. Granted I thought we could have picked up points against Bournemouth and Burnley, but them aside we’ve had a tough run of it. We have 27 games still to play, still time to rise up the table. 8 points should have us towards mid-table, 5 at least would keep us in touch with those above the relegation zone. With 16 games gone we are then approaching the mid point of the season, and 4 points or fewer from the next 5 and I think we are well implanted into a relegation battle.

Baird of the land Posted 6 November, 2019 Share Posted 6 November, 2019 Everton: 0 (Soft Saints roll over for Gomes) Arsenal - 0 (xhaka scores winner to redeem himself) Watford 1 point (scrappy ugly draw) Norwich 1 points (entertaining high scoring draw) Newcastle 3 points (Our counter attacking away form to the rescue again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
