Before the Arsenal game, it is Southampton a, West Ham h, Stoke a and Swansea h.

March is tough - I think we're going to need at least 7 points from that lot.

It is a hugely important run of games and will shape the rest of our season, one way or the other.

I am not optimistic, but would love to be proved wrong.

We really need to stick some results together and make us a hard proposition to play against.

I'm hoping for 8 points.

Southampton 3
West Ham 1
Stoke 1
Swansea 3

Need 7 minimum. Hope for 8/9. 12 would be dreamland.

I think it is vital we remain unbeaten in those games, it stops them gaining points on us and games are running out.

Having said that, just remaining unbeaten isnt enough, we need to start winning our home games against those around us, so 8 points really absolute minimum of 6, but if 6 means losing two of those games then that isnt enough.

1 Win, 1 Draw from :

Southampton
West Ham


WBA type loss :

Stoke


"Must Win" :

Swansea



7 points



Which gives 30 points, leaving us another "Must Win" v Huddersfield, and having to scrape as many points as we can from the rest giving us a finish of 36 - 38.

Achieve that and we're within touching distance of survival

Id probably take 6 at a push, hoping for more when I really shouldn't be given our current results.

2 home wins essential and hope to pick up something away

Think the key to the whole thing is the Saints game. Chris and the team need a completely different mindset to the one we had when going to Huddersfield and West Brom. Any tame surrender at St Mary's might just kill us. However we do it - we need something out of that game. Any result down there will also give us the confidence to go at West Ham, Stoke and Swansea.
