Relegation Thread 25-26

[Marcus Kendall]

It’s not just on a functioning striker, the structure and balance of the team is wrong.

It was always going to be a season of upheaval, moving stadium and the huge turnover in the playing staff, but it’s frustrating that we haven’t addressed some glaring issues with the squad (ahem…..right back), and the manager doesn’t seem to know how to use what he does have effectively.

It’s especially frustrating when I think the league is very poor, and it wouldn’t & shouldn’t take much to get up to positions 4-8 quite comfortably.

Stop being so logical Nath. I want more bedwetting from you. We're doomed right? Can't compete against Burnley, Leeds and Wolves so we take our medicine and come back stronger to compete with these impressive football teams

All games are losable, all games are winnable. Who had us down to beat palace unbeaten in about 20 games after we couldn’t beat a rancid West Ham team?
Without a proper striker we’re the kind of team that will finish somewhere between 9th and 14th without threatening either end of the table, we’ll have some nice wins like Palace and Brighton and some crap results like West Ham and Leeds until we get a proper goalscorer.

I did for one. I predicted they'd lose energy late in the game due to their European exertions.

That was a winnable game because of it.

Sunderland are nothing. We should be taking at least a point but we can and must take all three.

 

[davek]

Would be nice

I think we will.

They're all full of themselves at the moment and they're not all that. And that's a recipe for a fall.

1-2 Everton.

We have won one away game so far this season Dave, you are asking Moyes to change things up here, don't see it myself.

They're a promoted team having a good start to the season.

There's pressure on them now as they'll - laughably - be seen as favourites for this game, and they'll be expecting three points.

I see this as a big opportunity to get a win.

It should be but Moyes doesn't seem to know his best setup atm, everything is a bit flat and he needs to sort it asap.

….don’t see any pressure on them at all, indeed they’ll be relishing games at this point in time. I just hope we’re superior to them and that manifests itself on the night but it could be a very difficult game.

 

[Alan Whittle]

the likes of Palace

Could say the same for the likes of Palace,

"Beware the likes of Palace!"

Logically yes…but it’s Moyes they are facing…

 

[Ged G]

Correct. The only way is up and that is where we are going...

 

[Ged G]

Those that disagree. Have you seen the table? Have you seen our form? Have you seen our fixtures? Have your seen today?

Yes, and I am not worried about relegation.

Wolves looking for a new manager

Yeah it's the kind of game Moyes excels in. Can see us frustrating them and catching them out either by a set piece or a bit of Grealish or Ndiaye magic

Wolves looking for a new manager

And there was some saying we missed out on Pereira last season after he had his purple patch

 

[Davideeyore]

Yes, and I am not worried about relegation.

Neither am I.

I just squirm how we slumped recently.
