Crumpet Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Because eventually a losing streak will end. I think they will lose tonight but win 3 more looking at their fixtures left. Applying this theory our current losing streak will end, so why are people worried. Edited April 7, 2014 by Crumpet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SikhInTrinity Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Because eventually a losing streak will end. I think they will lose tonight but win 3 more looking at their fixtures left. Which will put them level on our current points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaForever1970 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Sunderland will beat Spurs tonight I think.Yup, announcing Sherwood wouldn’t get the job in the summer is brilliant timing by Spuds.Blunderland win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voinjama Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 If Sunderland win tonight then Norwich beat Fulham I'm hitting the hard stuff Norwich winning would be a good thing. It would almost certainly condemn Fulham to relegation and so that is the 2nd place filled after Cardiff. If Fulham win it brings them closer to the pack. Definitely need a Norwich win.

Voinjama Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Sunderland's next 3 games are Chelsea, Everton and Man City. They also still have to play Manchester United at the end. They are down. I am honestly relaxed after tonights result. Villa may finish 17th, but that will be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Unless sunderland get 4 points from their 2 games in hand then its them and cardiff. Not sure about the final team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I reckon ISA's predicting 9 points out of 9 for Sunderland from their next three. I'm surprised with some of Poyet's selections I have to admit, not starting Adam Johnson last week was insane and you'd think people like Gardner and Larsson can at least score from freekicks/long range so that might be important for a team that creates little from open play.

useless Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Hopefully Albion could still be in with a shout of going down, would need Norwich to spring a few surprises though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I reckon ISA's predicting 9 points out of 9 for Sunderland from their next three. Guess not I genuinely did think they would win tonight but with the defeat and the manner of it, I think they are most likely down now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Why out of interest? Spurs have a ridiculous amount of quality all over the pitch compared to Sunderland, that was always going to tell over 90 minutes. Sherwood is getting a load of undue flack imo, his league record stands at 10 wins out of 17 games which is hardly a terrible record for a rookie manager and compares to what AVB and Brendan Rodgers were doing in their first 17 games and he's been pretty good at beating the bottom half teams since he took over. The age old problem Spurs have is they just don't beat enough of the other top 6/7 teams and that's been their problem for years. If they had our record against the top teams this season they'd be in 4th now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isa Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I just thought this was a good time to face Spurs and Sunderland (a bit like us) have been better away and in games with less expectation under Poyet. Obviously I'm not surprised they lost either. I just had that gut-feeling for Sunderland but as is often the case, my gut-feeling has proven to be completely useless.

Rovers13 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 He also gives a lot of creative freedom, so their quality shows over the lower sides but they aren't organized enough against the top sides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham to beat Norwich then both teams to lose the rest of their games would be the ideal scenario there If Norwich win they're safe, despite probably not being likely to pick up any more points. If Fulham win, they're still a good bit behind us, BUT Norwich would be in a much worse position in terms of passing us Edited April 7, 2014 by P3te Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeepDish Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 I think Norwich will go down now. Morons at the top who sack the manager with just 5 matches to go. They will be accompanied by Solskjaer and Cardiff and Poyet and Sunderland. Two poor managers goes down and one team with a poor managerial decision go down. They surely would've gone down with Hughton though. And I don't know how poyet can be considered a poor manager. Results can hardly be viewed as great. 15 losses out of 33!

Isa Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) What is it for Poyet now, 24 points from 24 games? So not terrible but not quite survival form. Though if they had averaged a point per game from the beginning of the season, they would be 17th and one point off Norwich.

Rovers13 Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) I think it's 23, but right around there yes. They have a really shitty squad though, is part of the problem.
