Man to Man and small squad at this level was MB's Achilles heel - and it really pains me to say that.

Some victory that. Should see us safe I recon

Beer in the fridge for motd.

Great three points. Hope for a draw or Norwich win tomorrow. Preferably a win.

Two big wins for us and Everton today.

Watford are quick going forward but one shot on target says it all really.

Thry are also good at falling over around the box but fortunately for us their top end is pretty blunt. I think they are down now.

Ffft. Well done boys. Great result under great pressure.

We’ll all sleep a little easier tonight.

I will sleep a little easier right now. G’night all.

This is never going to be pretty.

In fact it’s going to be god awful to watch.

But should be able to get us a couple of mid table finishes and then hopefully we can go for someone with a better philosophy for in possession football.

Strangely Burnley appear to play 4 times before our next match.

After Everton's win this was massive. So so relieved and proud as punch of the lads. Just need Norwich to beat Burnley tomorrow now or at least draw and. we're almost safe... Phewwww!

Tough run of fixtures coming up, Palace away, City at home, Arsenal and Chelsea to follow. That 9 point cushion is crucial, but we are not out of the woods yet.

Hope Norwich wins against Burnley, because Norwich will never catch us anyway.
10 points in 4 games...who'd believe that, just a few weeks ago

I’d bite your hands off for a mid table finish next season.

Think the assessment on the football is a bit harsh. It’s a lot easier to tighten your side up as a new manager than it is to get them executing your brand of football. I said when he joined I’d judge marsch on next season not this one. We need to stay up. Personally I don’t give a hoot what the football’s like this year. Let’s freshen the squad, have a full pre-season and see where he takes us.

Glad to have gotten my clean sheet prediction and Raphinha with the first goals. Those are the type of bonuses one loves!
