Speaking on Sky Sports after the match, Earnshaw said: "It is really, really tough. I look at Watford next, that's a must-win. Stoke is a must-win, Rotherham is a must-win, then Huddersfield.

"Burnley is going to be the toughest one - but every game is now a must-win.

"I believe they will stay up. If they perform like this (against Sheffield United), which was way better than last weekend, then they give themselves a chance.

"They are making it so, so difficult. It's been a really bad year for them."

Earnshaw is useless as a pundit !!

Watford isn’t must win.

However, Huddersfield and Rotherham are close and possibly Stoke.

I would be surprised if 2 more wins didn’t keep us up and amazed if 3 wins didn’t do it.

Can anyone see QPR, Rotherham or Reading getting 3 wins ? I can’t.

True but also can't see us winning three games.

If we only get a point or less from the next two then huge pressure on the Rotherham and Huddersfield games.

Point is that the teams below us or level on points with us need to beat what we do. That’s what will probably keep us up.

As the table stands we stay up.

Should never have got to this point but that’s a discussion for when we’re safe, hopefully.

Yeah fair points.

Important to remember the only reason we're outside the bottom three us because Reading at points deducted. They'd be five clear without that, it would just be between us and QPR really.

Yep but they cheated two seasons in a row !! The table won’t lie at the end of the season and if Reading go down they deserve to go down.

Many clubs, like ours, have struggled to stay within FFP rules. Reading decided they’d try it on and got caught, twice !!

I actually think QPR will go down but would rather Reading just to show that there are consequences for their actions.
