Decky Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Ben Arfa Ba Cisse Tiote Cabaye Marveaux Coloccini Krul Santon Taylor Anita Look at those players man, our best crop there, not including cracking youngsters like Bigi. How the fuck are we even talking about relegation? We've had injuries but most of those are still playing and those that aren't were playing for at least half the games we've played this season. I hope we sort this out soon man, because I can see us losing a lot on that list in the next 8 months if we dont. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ketsbaia Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 On our day we can beat almost any team in this league, it just hasn't happened often enough. We're comparing these to 08-09 but we only won 2 from January to May - that won't happen again. Of course we're not getting relegated but yes, our drop from last season is a big concern. This isn't sticking my head in the sand either, it's just common sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GM Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 I'm more concerned about these recent murmurs about a split in the dressing room. We've seen to our cost in very recent times what that can mean for team performance...so I really hope that's just either at best a load of nonsense or at worst just a storm in a teacup. We've clearly got defensive nightmares to face up to, but the biggest threat to us in terms of relegation may well yet be an unhappy and divided team? Just a thought. Hopefully my fears are unfounded. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think their form is just players really out of form. Jonas for his sake I hope is carrying an injury. I've never been Tiote's biggest fan personally so this isn't a surprise but he should be doing better. That's my own opinion, obviously others will see it differently.

Decky Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Defeats will be hurting the players and filling their heads with doubt. I don't think any drop is form is related to a rift among the players and/or staff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider Jerusalem Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 What sort of drop of form has there actually been. The only run of form that we've had this season is bloody awful. We've fluked a couple of wins at the start of the season but our run of 'form' has been something like 2 wins from 11 with 9 defeats. That IS relegation form. This is a massive month coming up as every game is 'winnable' but those 'winnable' matches never turned up the last time around and to be brutally honest with the fucking awful 'defending' on show we do not look capable of picking up a win.

BillClinton Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 In a normal year I'd think we would be in deep trouble, but given all our problems there still seems to be even worse clubs out there at the moment thankfully. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
