Pongotastic Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 We should be alright. Currently on 19 points. We should have 7 more wins in us. Regardless of draws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdulaziz1 Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 I hope we don't get melt with these Boxing day games ! I really hope Vlaar would be back as soon as possible .. After what I saw against Fulham .. I started remembering nightmares from last season ! We're playing Utd at the worst time .. Rooney is back .. They need a win .. We're coming from a lose .. Delph is suspended .. Vlaar is doubtful .. I really hope Luna is back too .. I'm hoping that this won't damage us .. Although I know that many teams are in the mixed .. and we're in a quite good position .. But looking at the table again .. and see that we're only two points above the likes of Stoke and Norwich who were looking in horrible position make me think of a lot of ups and downs in the league .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted December 13, 2013 Share Posted December 13, 2013 In Russia, Anzhi. I didn't realise just how bad it had got for them this season after they sold the team they couldn't afford to keep. From having one of the most expensively assembled squads in world football they are now sitting bottom of the Russian Premier League having not won a game all season (19 matches so far) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimzk5 Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) Bump this is a bit hard to predict isn't it? Usually by now you have a team dead and buried with 1 team near enough nailed on with a couple more who could fill the final spot after today the bottom 3 are all on 18 points, and all in the bottom 3 by 1 point, and just 6 points away from top half the only team i would put money on going down at the moment would be west ham Edited January 18, 2014 by Jimzk5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Not a clue. Ideally would love WBA and West Ham to go down, I would say Stoke aswell but it's a local trip so keep them in. Still think Palace will go down as they still have a tough run in, have to play both Manchester clubs, Liverpool and Chelsea all at home still but fair play to Pulis they're having a real go and from what I've seen it's not all horrible long ball. I do think Sunderland will stay up and Fulham. Cardiff have gone a bit poor so they look in danger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Big transfer window for many clubs, ourselves included. Cardiff, West Ham and Sunderland are still the most likely to go down, although I think Crystal Palace may get relegated if they don't get someone to score them goals.

Tomaszk Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 Palace are going. Not good enough. Then it's any two from 10 others. I'd guess... Norwich & Fulham But it could easily be us and Swansea, or Hull and Cardiff. Swansea could be dark horses. Having a horrid time with injuries and still in Europa which just **** everyone. Look at Newcastle season to season with/without it! About a 10 place swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NurembergVillan Posted January 18, 2014 Moderator Share Posted January 18, 2014 I dunno about Palace. I think Pulis knows how to organise a defence, and that's half the battle for the teams at the arse end of the league. His style of football may be many things, but it's hard to beat. Now they've pulled out of the relegation zone there's a chance they might not drop back into it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Trouble is they'll rely on their home form to keep them up, of the 8 left they still have two Manchester clubs, Liverpool and Chelsea still to play so half of their home fixtures they'll probably lose. Probably need 37-38 points to stay up so 5 wins and couple of draws needed, think they'll run out of games. Holloway messed up some of their easier games before Pulis came in.

AVFCforever1991 Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 There is absolutely no chance that we are if we can bring tonights performance for the rest of the season Agreed, I'm very confident that we will stay up, if we can play like that for most of the season.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing isn't it? We're so unpredictable with our performances. Hopefully the second half against Arsenal and today's performance against Liverpool are a sign of things to come.

troon_villan Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 League is so tiiiight this season! 7 points between 9th and 10th yet only 6 points between 10th and 20th. Bottom three teams on the same points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyshaw Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 I would have to go for Palace West Ham and Cardiff as things stand but I change my mind all the time. It really is such a close call between so many clubs. I think we have enough in us with more performances like yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted January 19, 2014 Share Posted January 19, 2014 Worth looking at the final day fixtures given it nearly always goes to the final day. Fulham v Palace immediately stands out as a winner takes all clash. I would suggest if West Ham are in the bottom 3 going into the final day they are relegated as they have Man. City away last day! Cardiff are at home to Chelsea and Norwich home to Arsenal also look difficult if either need something. Sunderland v Swansea aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
