One moment in every game is the difference between 1 point and 6 points. (Poor Kenedy first touch, poor Kenedy penalty, poor penalty decision and a 1 in a 100 chance 30-yarder). Fine margins in every game. Under another manager I think we’d have been royally humped at least twice with this squad.

Well said O-N.

Four losses and a draw. That's bad no matter the opposition.

[Geordie Ahmed]

Awful start BUT not overly surprised.

 

We have a run of 7 home games where we need to pick up a bunch of wins if we are going to stay up.

[Ketsbaia]

Our games get brilliant soon but the problem is that I don't have faith in us scoring.

[xLiaaamx]

Nailed on right now like.

When we don't win those games the pressure mounts on the next game, then the next game. This shower of shite won't cope.

Who do we play next week? Man City again?

[David Edgar]

Away at Palace.  Arguably as tough as today's game.  Another loss would be my guess.

[toon25]

We’re fucked at the moment like. Exhibiting signs of a club resigned to go down. Disunity from top to bottom and shit players.

Yeah they'll probably win that with Zaha in the team. Well, maybe the game after that we can get our season started then. Wake me up in two weeks.

After only 5 games it's 3 of Us,Cardiff,Huddersfield and Burnley to go down they are by far the worst 4 in the league. No way does this team get 40 points though

That's bollocks like, Brighton, Southampton and West Ham could all be down there as well, and they probably have tougher fixtures coming up.

A tough game against a superior Leicester side followed by an away match v Man Utd?  Take a long slumber.

You are joking right?

 

 

[ToonArmy1892]

This start is ridiculously tough mind, next 3 are aswell, we need to beat Leicester.

[Big Geordie]

'8' for me. We are up against it.

[triggs]

Think we'll stay up but what's the point really?

[YankeeToon]

2. We'll be in and among the relegation spots most of the season but won't go down.

[BONTEMPI]

Buy wank and that's what you get. 10

[Conjo]

We've had an insanely tough start to the season. The only sub-par result is the one against Cardiff and you can't base your fears this season on one result. I guess you can, but it would be stupid.

[ScottishMagpie]

Honestly don't give a fuck and it's terrifying me.

[Shearergol]

Ignoring the football, it feels like a relegation season just because of everything happening off the field. Sense Rafa will be sacked before Christmas so fuck it anyway.

[George Bailey]

Still a 5 (50/50)

Some poor sides in this division and we are one of them.

 

Any 3 from about 5/6 teams for me are in danger. Just need to be better than 3 of them.

Piss poor but it's our reality under MA.

 

Very good point re Rafa being sacked. :'(

 

[TRon]

Still don't think we'll go down, never really felt it simply because we are playing opponents I don't usually expect to beat anyway. It's just tedious waiting for the easier games to come round.
