Such confidence
Can’t believe we’ll get 95 points

Why is everyone throwing a D in for Southampton?

We were the better team in the 1st half there and could’ve (should’ve?!) taken 3pts if Dasilva stayed on.

That’s with MvE + Rudoni at 25%, no Tats, no Thomas, no Onyeka, no BTA.

Take out Wednesday from their away results; they beat Stoke and were 3-0 down by HT at Leicester - before that no win away since 22nd November.

They have hit form, currently ahead of us in the last 5: Championship - Form table

All three games on paper are very winnable.

Brizzle have some injuries and will be tired after their FA Cup game, whereas we have had the rest after a buoyant win Saturday.

PNE results haven’t been good in the last five and arguably we should have won there in December.

Southampton was a tight game when we played St Fairies, but we were winning and the game changed on the back of JDS red card. Who knows what would’ve happened if JDS doesn’t get sent off.

Given we are top, confidence is high, limited unavailability of players, looking more resolute and hungry for it, there is no reason we can’t get 9/9.

That's pretty much how I see it, although I have a feeling we might lose to Southampton, but I think 93 will be more than enough

Sounds stupid but I hope the team take it 1 game at a time, focus on the next game and play like its the last game for the next 11 fixtures

This.

I was thinking about this and the run in and how it compares to Matchplay Golf (like the Ryder Cup). Each player goes into thinking their opponent is going to hole every putt, stuff an approach shot into the middle of the green or hit the fairway with every drive. All they need to do is concentrate on themselves doing that so if their opponent doesn't do it, they're at an advantage.

We're the same and just need to concentrate on what we're doing and not getting overly bothered about Boro, Ipswich or Millwall.

Like you said, concentrate on getting 3 points after 3 points after 3 points and it won't matter what the others do.

With the advantage we’ve got or as Benjamin Bloom calls it margin for error we can afford to drop points here and there, but as long as we focus on ourselves and our own run in, the game at hand we’ll win the league. As Lampard said himself although not word for word its about finding that formula then rinse and repeat

Yup, that's it. You can slice and dice the run in any way you choose - average league position of opponents, their PPG at home/away, last 10 form etc - But it's ultimately down to each 3 points...
