Let's just see how Slimani does when he comes in. Bit tough with it looking like his first game will be Man Utd (h) but there's no pressure on us to get a result and hopefully that plays to our advantage. Our tactical set up et al in the overwhelming majority of games has been spot on and people with even a modicum of knowledge about football knows that we just need a good enough striker to put chances away; look at the games against Bournemouth, Everton, Swansea, Burnley. Slimani is a bloke rated at £30m, has scored in the PL despite starting only 15 times in a side that doesn't suit his style of play and physique, and in the CL.
After Man Utd we have 2 weeks to prepare for what I believe and I think most people will see as a winnable match in Bournemouth (a). You can lack confidence in us, but to say we're absolute certainties for relegation is ludicrous.
