I went for 6 as the minimum requirement as that what we got against the same teams earlier in the season (beat Norwich and drew with the other 3).
Of course hope for more as thought we were better than Leicester and deserved more than a draw, Villa are also beatable. Wolves however would settle for another draw now.

Realistically, 4 points - optimistically 5-6.

Leicester City - Away - 0 pts, likely loss, possible draw
Aston Villa - Home - 0-1 pts, likely draw we seem to like drawing with Villa and their form is very up and down, could go either way but I think they're more settled than us atm, so draw or loss
Norwich City - Home - 3pts, must win and we "should" be able to do it
Wolverhampton Wanderers - Away - 0-1 pts, likely loss, possible draw - their form also a bit up and down, good chance to pick up a point away from home

Based on a point a game - season total 38 points - Currently we are in arrears - So need 7 points to get back on track - Possible but 4 absolute min with a win v Norwich essential

Of the 12 games left you'd probably say Man City, Chelski, and Arsenal will probably be tough to get any point - So from the other 9 games we need 15 points which is certainly possible

Coming up Brentford play Norwich + Burnley so whilst we can hope the bigger clubs beat those around us, they can't help us when they play each other

Don't forget the other bottom sides have more games against the big boys than we have.

None of the 4 coming up beat us earlier in the season so we should believe.

Could win them all but also lose them.

Even prior to the sacking I thought March was very much a key month.
Think 6 would be OK but hope for 9 or 10.
Disaster would be 3 or less.

it would be nice to get 3 wins I think 2 is being optimistic though. We only really need 4 wins to see us safe I think? very doable with our fixtures over the next 7. I think our fate will be sealed by the Watford game. I am super optimistic we can get away from danger by then and always thought that would be the case but if we are not it will be very hard to pull away after then.

I really can't call this one either. Could be a great 10pts or a miserable 2pts

I stick at 7pts

If Brentford don't get points in their next 2 they will go. not sure what result I want when they play Burnley.
