fightoffyour Posted January 14 VT Supporter Share Posted January 14 Would Leeds, Everton, West Ham be too much to ask? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted January 15 Author Share Posted January 15 Palace could potentially get dragged into it, their next ten fixtures are: Chelsea (a), Man Utd (h), Newcastle (h), Man Utd (a), Brighton (h), Brentford (a), Liverpool (h), Aston Villa (a), Man City (h), Arsenal (a) Even what might be considered easier fixtures in that run look like they could be difficult games.

Could say the same with Bournemouth. Forest are by no means iut of it yet but hopefully they stay up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) Brentford not a bad team, but today should have been a good opportunity for Leeds to get a win, that they didn't means it's now two just wins in sixteen in the league for them now, and next three games Forest away and then back-to-back games against Man Utd. Wolves not out of it yet, most teams will lose to Man City, but they desperately need to sort their goal scoring problems out.

VillaAlex Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 I think Leeds will survive, as bad as their win record I expect something to click soon, saying that they are the closest to the worst three for me. Everton are doomed unless they can appoint someone who can United the club. Southampton can't score or defend so they're going down for me too. Then I think probably Bournemouth. Who may end up finishing rock bottom. No way are Wolves or West Ham going down. Forest have enough in them too, but could get dragged back in if Everton improve. Leicester will pickup when they sack Rodgers, again too much quality. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 Wolves might not ultimately go down, but not sure why people are acting like it's unthinkable, they've taken just thirty-four points from their last thirty-seven games, if they lose next game to Liverpool that will be thirty-four points from a season's worth of games, that's actually worse than Everton's form over their last thirty-eight games, they scored just twelve goals in twenty this season, we scored more than that after twenty games the season we were relegated. West Ham, Wolves, Leeds, and Everton's form over the last year or so has been much of a muchness. Everton probably being written off too early as well, we get this every season, it will be insisted that such and such club is doomed and they suddenly start winning games that they're not expected too, can look at their fixtures and wonder where the points will come from but can do the same to the other teams near the bottom of the table, they're all down there for a reason, not saying i think Everton will survive, but too early to write any team off at the moment. All that said I think three most likely to at the moment seem to be the current bottom three, but at the same time I would't rule out any of them suriving, or any of the teams above them getting relegated. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's an incredible stat when you consider that we went down with one of the worst ever points tallies 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes, you can almost will yourselves out of relegation, and I think Leeds won’t let it happen. Same in a different way with Forest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 22 Author Share Posted January 22 (edited) Difference with Wolves is that their defence has been has been very good, at least before today, but many teams will concede goals to City. They need to find a way of scoring though. Edited January 22 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marka Ragnos Posted January 22 VT Supporter Share Posted January 22 (edited) My good mate is saddled with the misfortune of being a Manure supporter, but I like to see him happy … yet I lived for several years near Highbury and have a bit of a soft spot — and revulsion, too — for Arsenal supporters. Hmmm. From a Villa perspective, a draw or United win are marginally better as it sets the table points ceiling a little bit lower?

GingerCollins29 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 Don't forget us in this. After beating fellow relegation rival southampton and leeds in the last ywo weeks, SkySports reminded everyone we are ONLY 11 points off the bottom 3. We are also 11 points off 4th, but according to sky, nowhere near a champs league place 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
