Guest ElCid Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 22 goals in 10 games currently we are having to score 2 on average to even get a draw - you cannot do that and expect to stay up but no doubt the sheep on here will say different. Don't give a s*** what anyone says this team will go down unless there is serious investment in January and McClaren, Charnley and Carr booted out. Nah. So what's nah about it then have a look at the league table and have a look at the goals conceded. Keep burying your heads in the sands as it's not going to change anything.

Beezeri Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 We need only 1,21 points per game from now on to reach the magical 40 points! Such a massive job to do with the current form Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 We're massively reliant on Norwich and Bournemouth failing to win and one other club taking the last spot. Can't see us finishing any higher than 16th. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 We're in the s*** and shouldn't bury our heads. We're playing a shit load better than the 5-6 teams around us. We're not safe obviously but I'd take us to finish ahead of half of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 No need to panic after this. Comfortably controlling the game until the ref screwed us over. Come on, mate. We didn't come close to scoring against one of the worst defences in the league and once again our hideous central defence was exposed for what it is. We're concede for fun and struggle to break teams down. We're heading for the Championship without significant investment in January. Mitrovic and Wijnaldum have both come very close to scoring. We've been the better team by miles. It means fuck all when you don't score and constantly gift goals, man. We're 19th for a very good reason. It's still utter bollocks saying we didn't come close to scoring today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 We'll pick up plenty of points if we keep playing like Norwich and to some extend today. Obviously this sounds mental after we've lost 3-0 to a shit team but that wasn't a reflection of the two teams' performances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only five teams have less points than Chelsea after 10 games, they'll still overtake the majority above them. No reason why we won't finish above 3.

You won't keep picking up points if you keep conceding on average over 2 goals per game. Have the team performances going forward picked up in the last games 4 and I won't argue about that - but they have conceded 13 goals in those games also and you can't keep doing that and expect to stay up.

Might be a stretching it a tad saying they were clear cut chances, but Colbacks especially is a at least a good opportunity to score once he gets it on his favoured left foot. Doesn't really matter in the end like, we were by far the better team and had loads of attempts, even though most of them were absolute wank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I can see better performances than at the start of the season, and the potential to win enough games. We could easily have kept a clean sheet today FWIW. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
