It's mental how good these look, load of new players chucked together and its working.

 

Absolute shite from January to May, including the play offs this year, now look like they can genuinely challenge for Champions League.

 

Played Chelsea, Arsenal, Villa and now Liverpool and not lost to any of them, coupled with their home form, they've got every chance of Europe.

 

We've been adding to our squad for 5 years and they look better than us [emoji38]

 

Need to accept they're not going to drop off either, nearly half way through the season now and they've played a lot of good sides, here to stay.

They’re still 29.0 on Betfair for

top 4. They won’t be in any trouble but it would be unprecedented for them to challenge for Europe.

Sunderland will probably have a Palace under Pardew type season IMO.  They're playing on form, not quality.  Good to see another team beat Liverpool while it lasts though.  Either way I'm more bothered about how well we do than how well Sunderland do.  If we need to worry about Sunderland for the rest of this season then we'll be underperforming.

People need to chill out. They look very good and well drilled. Solid, everyone knows their job. But teams get found out all the while and need to regularly evolve. As we found out. As Liverpool have found out over one summer. Even City to a degree. 
 

The more tape teams have of them. The more they’ll be able to try and work a gameplan. They’ll also lose any players that are genuinely decent. Such is this shitty PSR world we all live in. 
 

They’re certainly a surprise package. Nobody could have predicted they’d be this good.

I watched them on telly a lot last season and they were really strong first half of the season, played some very nice football, but then they dropped off a cliff and barely won a game for months until the play offs. 

 

It might happen again, it might not. But you can’t say it definitely won’t.

I remember Hull City.

They’ll drop off, they’re losing about 7 first teams players to afcon

Only 2 of them play regularly, don’t they? Sadiki and the left back whose name I’ve forgotten. Both quality players for them. But I’m not sure how many of the others even get minutes.

They look resolute and ready to pounce on an opportunity. But we have that resolution and the team to unlock their style. They were pounded in the end...but Liverpool suck in the final 3rd, at the moment. 

It's not going to be easy...but the bed wetting is unfounded.

They're having one of those years where they start out way better than expected, have a few results that go their way and confidence is brimming. They're basically playing with house money now. They've done really well.

They didn't exactly sign nobodies though, they brought in ex Atletico, PSG and Arsenal players alongside some decent young players with a shit load of potential. Very good summer that they will struggle to replicate, if needs be.

Do they actually look that good? 

 

I'll admit they look far better than I expected, but again today the opposition were absolutely woeful and the mackems goal takes a big deflection.

 

Top 12 looks almost a certainty, but I think they'll fall below European spots.

We're recognised as having a poor start to our season. They're having a brilliant, somewhat generational, start to theirs. Yet they're only 4 points ahead us. Fuck the silly doom and gloom.

It's a massive game, and there's going to be equally massive talking points from it. Can't wait.
