AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I don't think Burnley looked too bad on the ball, they just get to a certain point and only have one way of creating a chance. They don't play long ball or anything, they just don't have any plan other than crossing it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Where are all the 10s at? Still at 10? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gleebals Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Keep this form going (aside Liverpool game) and get another c.12 points between now and beginning of Jan and I would feel pretty comfortable. Jan will be a back to reality. Then only 4 of the current top 6 to play between Feb and May, another reasonable finish is possible. Jan will be a clear indication of our intent with Rafa. He needs to be backed if there is any change of him staying IMO, even if we are looking in reasonably good shape. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I'm at a 7. Ashley has plenty of the season left to somehow fuck us over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robster Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Our biggest issue will be morale towards the end of the season if it becomes clear that Rafa is not signing a new contract. If the players think/know he's leaving, the performances drop and we'll be in deep trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I don't think Burnley looked too bad on the ball, they just get to a certain point and only have one way of creating a chance. They don't play long ball or anything, they just don't have any plan other than crossing it. I actually thought they played decent football up to a point, but when you have Vokes and Wood as your strikers, then you are quite limited in the final third.

Guest ElCid Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Might but then again might not - honestly think it's 50/50 currently. All may well depend on January as I'm certainly not confident this set of players are good enough to survive especially with the lack of creativity and goals. Suppose that makes me a five but I certainly wouldn't back this team to stay up either. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 We'll definetly be there or there abouts, the squad already looks bereft of quality. We'll stand still in January while our rivals invest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinport53 Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 7 points from the next 5 games please. Then this thread becomes the Europameter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 Wolves, Huddersfield and Fulham up next. 4pts from that and we're on 17 after 19 games (assuming a Liverpool loss). That's alright, like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 5 points off the team above us in 13th, bit depressing. But most importantly, we're currently top of this season's 7-strong relegation mini-league. We've played 4, won 1, drawn 3, and we've got the best goal difference. Still eight games to go against that pack, more coming at home than away. Things are looking alright at the minute. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samptime29 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I would take 5 points from next 3 games. Important Huddersfield or Fulham don't beat us. Would be delighted if we get 7 like would be massive. 4 points ahead of relegation zone with better GD. Considering our lack of spending it's a decent enough position to be in.

geordiedean Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 9 This side cant win home games and that is what keeps you up in a relegation struggle. We have now played 9 at home losing 7 of them which means effectively to stay up we will need to win 4 away and 5 out of remaining 9 at home Not going to happen unfortunately with this utter shower of shit Unless serious quality is brought in January ( and we all know it wont be) then its goodbye premier league for us Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
