Vive_La_Villa Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Sheff United could win this. Spurs look a shambles. We played them too early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I agree with this, in fact I gave it a like, I see why people are pleased that Southampton are losing to Everton. The assumption, I assume, being that Everton will ultimately be at least mid table, but Southampton are much more likely to be relegated.

That 1 crippled senior centre back he had for 1st 3 months. Cracking squad 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareth Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 I'm keeping my powder dry when it comes to watching the teams around us until the end of the season. That said, I would bloody love to beat wolves and stay a couple of wins and goal difference ahead of the relegation pack - just for day-to-day anxiety reduction.

useless Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 It's better by far for us Southampton and Norwich losing, any other results and we'd be closer to the relegation zone, as it stands we maintain the three point gap with a game in hand. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping that Newcastle would continue losing a few weeks ago. Now there a win off 5th. We just need the bottom 16 to collectively get as few points as possible. About as weak as I remember this division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Surely Hasselhuttl will get the sack after this one, Southampton just can't win at home which is terminal if you want to stay up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markavfc40 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) A win tomorrow could put us 13th. Worse case in mid November we will be 3 points outside the relegation zone with a far superior goal difference to those in the bottom 3. I'd have taken that at the start of the season and I'll take it come the end of the season. Anyone who thought we'd be in anything other than a relegation battle this season was way too optimistic. What is really promising though is that we have so far held our own in every game that we have played and shown we can compete at this level. Keep that up and I'm confident we'll be fine but fully expect we will be in and around the drop zone all season.

VillaChris Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) It's going to be a big xmas for us. Southampton and Norwich at home and then Watford and Burnley away. 8 points from that and we should move into the mid table group. That's the crucial period for us as we have (on paper) lots of tough home games in the last three months so need decent number of points on the board before we hit that run.

VillaJ100 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Yeah I think Xmas will be make or break. Table looking pretty grim. The shit thing is we've actually played quite well in the first 11 games, with only 11 points to show for it. We might not play that well in the next 11 which is very worrying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted November 9, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted November 9, 2019 (edited) We've still got to play Wolves, Watford, Southampton, Newcastle and Man United before the new year. We'll be fine. Easy 15 points Edited November 9, 2019 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
