Quite happy for West Ham to win - don't think they are a realistic relegation candidate.

Majority first team injured/suspended especially their strikeforce. Definitely relegation candidates.

This. West Ham can't quite be ruled out just yet, and if the FA Cup game was anything to go by, their squad is not exactly strong.

I was hoping we'd be good enough to finish 16th or so, but I'm now just hoping the Swansea, West Brom and Huddersfield are bad enough to go down instead of us.

Stoke v Watford is an interesting one. I don't think there's a bad result for us in this game. Watford are in danger of freefall at the moment and the only reason they're not lower is because of their good start. At the moment I actually think they're more likely to go down than Stoke who seem to have rallied a bit under Lambert.

I think they're right in it. They're also our next home game so not wanting them to get any momentum. A totally poor 0-0 will do fine

I think most would agree Watford are far from out of it but we're up at Stoke soon and whilst I think a draw is best I can see the positives of Watford hammering them. If would greatly ease Watford's relegation fears but maybe take the wind right out of Stoke's sails?

Two massive games tonight.

Our survival depends on Swansea and Huddersfield both going down and that includes both losing tonight.

West Ham v. Palace is harder to have a firm opinion about. A West Ham win would make me happiest tonight and probably won't matter come the end of the season.

I think Stoke will beat Watford, so although there is still time, it makes our game a must not lose or we will drop into the bottom 3 for the first time this season, like i said there is plenty of time to get back out but would still rather we keep our heads above the water, could be a psychological blow, alternatively could be a huge kick up the arse.

No bones abaout it, if Huddersfield or Swansea pick up anything at all from their games tonight then at some point we're going to have get points off a big gun to stay up. We can't afford to keep shipping points against teams those guys are taking points off, even if it is Arsenal.

We need min of 4 points from next 2, defeat tomorrow and wins for Stoke and Swansea and we'd be awash on a sea of wet beds Thursday morning.

Unless we can find a win at Southampton, or draw at the very least... we will be well and truly in the bouillabaisse by 22:00 on Wednesday.
