The next three games will define our season...

It really is twist or bust, with three incredibly difficult games coming up. Yet for the first time in many a year I'm believing that we can win all of them, though with the quality we are facing, am doubtful.

Everton, a mid table team but with a lot of talent, and a bogey side. Slav has re-written the Stats Book many times already. Can he manage to do it again?

A resurgent Chelsea. This is the one I'm most doubtful of a result.

Man U (FA Cup) Massive game, and one I certainly think we could get a result out of if we're on the top of our game.

We need to win two out of three of these, at least, to make us contenders. It's going to be very tough - but I'm relishing it.

A tough month but we don't have to fear anyone, nor do we have anything to lose by going GUNG-HO.

It's working for Leicester, and we have been working from a point of patching up sides really, for the most part. We haven't had our best players fit and in form once, so our returning players could make a huge difference to already impressive, stable form.

Although it's not quite true that we only beat good sides, we need to start putting poor ones to the sword more regularly to improve our league position.

Of course, we might get good sides all the way to winning the FA Cup...

Would I be getting carried away if I believe we could go the rest of the season unbeaten?!

After the Spurs game i can only see, 6 points and a Cup semi final to look forward too.

Re: The next three games will define our season...

There have been a few select periods in my life that as West Ham we have really had our tails up so to speak. 85-86 and the peak of the Pardew years were amazing although too me this feels more rounded and greater to some extent.

The combination of graft, skill, great football, Bilic's leadership style, final season at Upton Park and being on the verge of the move just feels fucking great right now.

We're moving into a different level now and long may it continue.

IRONS!

Re: The next three games will define our season...

I think we'll do Everton. I can see draws at Chelski & Utd with a thriller replay vs Utd which can go anywhere.
Utd look a lot better last few weeks playing some of their pacier youth players. But I think we'll prevail.
Its the games vs the duff teams I get worried about....still

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Afraid I don't fancy it Saturday. We have an awful record there and on their day Everton can blow anyone away, plus I think the game may come too soon after last night colossal effort, and do we have any CB's left?

Think we can get at least a draw in the cup game, obviously Chelsea away is a big ask.

All to play for though.

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Think we may suffer post"Spurs hangover on Saturday. They get an extra day's rest, we picked up some key knocks. Unfortunately see us losing up there.

Fancy we can sneak a draw against Chelsea as we'll be again well motivated, and should have Reid back...and then who knows with the cup game which despite the league position feels like our big focus from the club's perspective.

Even if we lose all 3, shouldn't forget the forward steps that have been made this season.

Come on, Stubbo, you can't give up so easily.

Coffee - What about your own opinion? How do you see these 3 games?

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Tiredness will be a factor V Everton this weekend ....

Everton have extra day to prepare ,

hopefully we have 2 Centre backs fit...
So Kouyate can be relaesed to play in the middle ...

Difficult decisions ahead for Slav this weekend no fear..

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Have we had our full set of strikers fully match fit together at any point this season? We would be right up there with last nights cunts if so. We are as good as anyone

Re: The next three games will define our season...

We're running out of centre halves. When's Reid back?

Darby_ 8:35 Thu Mar 3
Re: The next three games will define our season...

I agree with Stubbo. Expectations seem to be a bit over the top at the moment, which is probably understandable. We're going well at the moment, but we'd still be doing well even if we lost our next three games.

3 points and a draw in the cup and smash them in the replay

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Can see Song and Moses getting full games at Everton ...

we'll need Fresh legs

Re: The next three games will define our season...

If Collins and Ogbonna are crocked, we'll do well to get a point.

Everton's always a pain in the arse fixture. But this season and the high that we're on, who knows? As others have said, Bilic has been fantastic at getting the players up for a game against the 'big' clubs, less so against lower opposition. But as he played for Everton, the motivation should be there. Would it be excessively optimistic to predict one win and two draws? I think not.

We've still got Henry who looks a decent player. He'd fit in fine I'm sure. Young Oxford did ok too and Reece Burke will be back next season. The future is looking bright.

Re: The next three games will define our season...

Would be more bothered with Everton if we were playing them at home.

They're superb away but have a shocking home record this season.

Martinez is as average a manager as there is.
