Relegation Thread 25-26

I don't think Leeds will drop but there's no way that DCL keeps scoring. He's in the 2nd hot streak of his career but he's still a poor finisher.

He also has a poor injury record

If he can stay fit until the end of the season it would be quite miraculous

Wolves now not getting pasted every week... Everton coming up I see it now.

We become to them, what Newcastle became to Derby

Must win for West Ham on Saturday

1 point from 2 winnable hone games is not enough

The next two games are important for them: Wolves and Forest are the teams they need to be picking up points against to keep them within reach.

For me, I think Forest will be alright in the end, like we were under Dyche, dragging enough points to get us over the line. Leeds may eventually struggle.

Its incredible how that West Ham ground gets worse every time you see it, everything about the place is fkd.
Be happy to see them relegated just so I don't have to look at it.

Tatty excuse for an Olympic stadium.

I think it's between West Ham and Leeds for 18th.

I'd rather Leeds went down, but from Everton's POV it's probably better West Ham did.

Does it matter to Everton who goes down?

 

[Vaughan]

It would take quite a collapse for Sunderland to not stay up, can’t really see Leeds going down either

ah yes of course, got confused with how bad wolves have been

still would be good imo to have two stay up, and i am desperate for it to be one of forest or wham

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Does it matter to Everton who goes down?

Well, who doesn't is Everton's opposition the following season. I think West Ham have more about them, and more likely to compete with Everton over the next 1-5 seasons than Leeds.

I recall wanting Villa down for the same reason when they beat us to effectively stay up.

[Edit] There's probably more West Ham players we could pinch if they went down too.

 

[Gallaeo]

I think Leeds’ home form will see them safe. The stadium seems to be a bit of a noose for wham, that and that the fans don’t seem up for the fight either.

Bournemouth could be interesting. A tough run incoming and about to lose their best player, manager out of contract at end season too I think?

 

[lieneverton]

Probably already said, and it's obviously important to look up and not down, but what a lovely feeling to go into the New Year, for the first time in a few years, with absolutely zero relegation concerns.

 

[Efcjake]

If by some miracle Forest and Leeds go down instead of Burnley and West Ham is be happy with that

 

[lieneverton]

I think it's the current 3. West Ham are in huge bother - 2 very winnable home games just gone and 1 point to show for it. Forest will flirt with it and are in trouble, but they've shown enough in certain games. Just not against the mighty Toffees, naturally.

Bournemouth won't go down but feels like they could be on the cusp of really struggling next season.

Likewise Leeds have shown plenty about them in certain games, much more than West Ham imo.

Wolves played ok at arsenal, RS and Man Utd.

I’d be happy with a narrow win.

 

[Sussex]

Think it is the bottom 3 as it stands that goes.

Wolves are abysmal. Can't score. Can't defend. No midfield. No fight.

Burnley can't score. Their defence they relied on last season is finding it a bit more difficult this season with the step up in class. I like Parker though.

West ham look gone. Relying on 34 year old Wilson as your main striker who can only compete 60 mins. Their defence is shocking. And that stadium is a hell hole for football.
