Given that we have 26 games to go and need just over a point a game to stay up I’m not particularly fussed that Norwich have won away at Brentford etc. just yet. We have half a team worth of injured players to come back and a January transfer window to sort out midfield issues. It’s a bit early to be wetting the bed because Burnley fluked a point away at Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are in the bottom three this changes drastically. The problem I have as each week goes on I see us getting worse, I see very little progress.

Norwich and Newcastle will go down, then it’s just 1 of Burnley, Leeds or Watford imo. That means nothing, Tommo. We are looking down, not up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 We really really need to wake up now. Not too concerned about Norwich (indeed this is sort of result that will seriously knock Brentford's confidence) but every season Burnley always pull out a very good run for 2-3 months and I'd suggest beating Brentford 3-0 and getting a 1-1 at Chelsea is indication it's started. If we don't do anything we're going to be 18th very soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was anyone really thinking that? I mean we're completely awful year in year out at Selhurst Park and they look a genuine top 10 side under Vieira now so they'll go into that match as big favourites. I struggle to believe DS will get Brighton game but he simply has to win that. For all Brighton's good play they haven't won since middle of September so in one of their annual winless runs when they play well but simply don't score enough. And they've just lost their first choice keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I couldn't care less about other teams results we need to take care of our own performances and results and we wont even in a relegation battle or anywhere near it. Mid -table should be our target but maybe to do that we need a change the manager 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamburglar Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 I didn’t expect it but based on performances I’m worried. At least I might be able to get a ticket for me and my kids if we get relegated again. Every cloud and all that. We do not look like a good side at the moment and I’m still having nightmares from the Watford game. Going to be a long season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joachim Anderson was very solid for Fulham and given our issues at CB would've been good pick up for us. Olise emerging talent and yeah Conor Gallagher did alright at West Brom so one we probably should've looked at but can understand at time passing him up.
