They are crucial to how this season will shape up.
West Ham H Premier League
Milan A Europa League
Leicester A FA Cup
Injuries starting to mount now as well. We are depleted in midfield and attack. These 3 are going to be very tough.
Beating City was great but failing to beat West Ham brings us back into the top 4 dogfight. Like the Everton game at OT Iβm always wary of playing a team we have already beaten twice this season.
Milan away will be tough but surely we wonβt be as bad as last night. They are decent but no world beaters.
Leicester will tough as usual but they have their injury problem also.
Arguably our most important run of the season now given the circumstances. 3 wins going into the International break would be unreal.
Next 3 games

The next three games always seem to be crucial for us. We lurch from one bout of existential angst to another on here.
Reckon we'll best West Ham, Milan and Leicester easy, just got a feeling

The trouble is, we know if we actually turn up in these games we can win them all, no problem.
But we rarely turn up for two games a month, never mind 3 in a row.
West Ham are tough and on a good run but without Jesse they’ll be less of a threat going forwards. However, they’re solid at the back so our lack of forwards (and Pogba) could kill us. Draw wouldn’t surprise me. Need to score early if we want to win it, force them to come out.
Milan aren’t that great, we just inexplicably let them dominate the ball (at home FFS) and paid the price in the end for being too negative - didn’t the Everton game teach Ole not to sit back with extra defenders coming on? Probably draw 0-0 and go out π but play on the break like we can and we’ll go through.
Leicester... I’ve said many a time before they’re not that great, fairly solid at the back and clinical up top. Vardy has been off the pace a little and if Barnes and Maddison are still out, we have a good chance... but again need to turn up and take our chances

None of the next 3 teams will give us space to play, so expect 3 rubbish performances.

If we finish without any trophies and scrape top 4/finish outside top 4, then I feel Ole has taken us as far as he can. It will be time to bring in somebody who can take us up another level because at the moment, this season has been nowhere near good enough.
You see the type of football Bielsa, Potter and Parker are getting their teams to play with championship level players and you begin to question the quality of our coaching team.

no youre right.. we should play the same way as those 3.. and sit just outside the relegation zone.. great idea
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you think those managers would be sitting outside the relegation zone, playing the same way at the biggest club in the world?
If the answer is no, then stop lying to your self. This trait is probably holding you back in life.
