Relegation 2022/23

[GoldenToffee]

Yes fully expecting to be in a worse position, but that is almost a given I think. If we can nick 1-2 points it would be huge. Even if we enter the last 8 games in the bottom three, as long as we're within a game of getting out of it, I think the other teams are that bad that there's still a fighting chance even after these fixtures.

Posted this prior to the Chelsea game. So we're on track to better that with a draw, and regardless we'll almost certainly exit these three really difficult fixtures outside of the relegation zone.

Huge plus.

We need to focus on our games and not worry about others around us.

We also got a tough run in too

I think if Leicester fail to gat any kind of new manager bounce they are down, when they lose Maddison they seem to stop playing with any cohesion?

I'm not even convinced Leicester will hire a new manager. They've gone with caretakers before.

I'd also say that beyond Madison there's not much there. Tielemans is injured and he's looking to get out to Arsenal and wont want to jeapordise that move.

I'd put their chances of survival at about 40% right now.

He's an Everton manager just like Moye's was. It will be interesting, see what Dyche does in the summer. I honestly think we should keep him no what what happens. We were dead in the water when he was appointed. I couldn't see anyone, fixing us. If we go down it will be because he runs out of matches.
Obviously we have the investigation over us, but I'm confident, better times are infront of us under this Manager.

Agreed. Our playing staff obviously don't have much experience of promotion chasing Championship football. Dyche does. I don't know how vital such experience is when trying to gain promotion but it can't be a negative.

Less tough than our first 9 games under Dyche, though.

We can expect a similar if not greater points haul.

IMO if we keep losses down to 3 we should get over the line with points to spare.

I swear everyone had Leicester and West Ham as being mid table and over the hills and far away by now.

Just watching the highlights from last night and I’m pretty confident WHU players were doing intentional self-sabotage last night. Reckon they’ll shoot up once they’ve ousted Moyes.

They aren’t shooting up anywhere. They may well survive in the end, but they aren’t going on some mad evil run.

One win takes them 12th

How are you guys feeling about the fight now?
From an outsider you seem to be as up for it as anyone so should scrape clear.
Southampton, Bournemouth and Forest favourites for me.

With the exception of Southampton it’s pretty much like that for everyone though isn’t it ?

In my opinion The problem Leicester and West Ham have had is they’ve been in denial .

And still nowhere near out of it.

They’re my three but it changes every couple of games , if we lose or couple on the spin or you do we’re deep in it .

The Form guide has both of us doing “ok”

 

[PITA]

its not impossible no but he is by some distance their main goals. The next player below him is on 4 goals.

I guess that their 2nd best scorer would be just about our top scorer.

Well why was zouma wearing a mask and I saw Antonio doing an evil laugh?!?!??

I agree but can't see Southampton getting out of it now and Forest are very poor and have a very tough run in. Only one of those I could see escaping is Bournemouth as they have the odd result in them.
