I did think at the start of the season we would go down, and at this moment, with the fixtures we have coming up, I still think this is a huge possibility.
But there is an improvement in the way we play, compared to last season. However, this team are so damn uninspiring that I fear all the draws we are getting are not going to be enough. Up front we have a great all round striker in Benteke who we are not creating enough chances for, and the player himself isn't seemingly capable of producing a goal out of nothing. We have Bent who is utterly pointless in this team unless there are 2 competitive wingers or a CM playing him through on goal. Then there's Gabby who has never been a prolific goalscorer and had recently been on a 19 game goaless run.
The main problem is the fact we have no wingers except for N'Zogbia, who IMO is the worst signing this club has ever made. Bannan is not good enough to play for a team staying in the PL either, he is one of the most frustrating players I've seen at the club.
