Palace had an XG of 0.8. They just had an unbelievable night. Our XG was nearly double that against Watford on Saturday and we didn’t score. We probably only need 3 wins to stay up. We will get that easily. We will probably win 5 or 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we played them earlier this season they were on a pretty good run and we weren't and yet performance at Selhurst was one of the best of a mediocre season. BTW if you think we can just have a 10 match winless run with Gerrard and nothing will happen then I think that's a bit odd given the metric was set with DS losing his job after five straight defeats. There's no way after backing him in the Jan window that NSWE will just be twiddling their thumbs at this. Not that I think it will come to it as we're not 15/16 or even Lambert bad quite yet imo. Yeah early in the season we beat newcastle 2 -0 no i dont think about having a 10 winless run but if you heard the fact why SG was brought in it wasnt to fight down at the bottom unless that changed over the last few weeks? The backing is what everyone wanted the fact the team looks lost is more worrying to me and the fact that losing at home to watford then seeing them get hammered by CP 4-1 at home im a bit worried but hey we go again lol.

lexicon Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 If we're talking about relegation in a month, Gerrard should be on thin ice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we keep losing Gerrard gets sacked in next six weeks, simple as that. So probably Gary Mac coming in then and getting us two wins like in 10/11 and then we have yet another tedious reset in the summer and likely waste yet another season in endless transition. I still don't think it will get that bad but Gerrard needs to start understanding other systems if coached properly can be more than effective at prem level.

kidlewis Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 We are potentially now five points off the drop. Given the game in hand Burnley have. need to win a couple and fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree! we cant keep changing mangers but also we cant keep picking the wrong ones too. If this fails i can see more the SG getting the boot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also worth remembering that it's unlikely this form will carry on forever. Its 7 games now minus a few moments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea - we weren't great but not terrible either, also unlucky with one of the penalties Brentford - poor although still controlled large parts of the game Man United - did well to come back, not remotely a poor performance Everton - A decent gritty win against a team who many on here expected us to lose to under Duncan Ferguson Leeds - very poor defensively but good going forward (which we haven't been in the games since). It's just denial of reality to pretend that we were anywhere near as poor overall in those games compared to the last two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
messi11 Posted February 23, 2022 Share Posted February 23, 2022 If we lose our next 3 games, It might be time to get Dean Smith back, recall trezeguet, and pay someone off the dark web to turn harkeye turned off during our games. We might have a chance of staying up then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea we had I think 1 shot on goal vs a Chelsea team out of form United we were ok when we went 2 nil down, we did nothing before If you want to bury your head in the sand and think Gerrard is a good manager then fair enough. I expected better from somebody who tore McLeish apart weekly but had a better win record and trophy cabinet in Scotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
