Relegation Battle

[Dchans]

If we lose tomorrow that opens up a pretty hefty gap to everyone above us, and kinda cuts the bottom 5 clubs adrift

Win tomorrow and we are hanging on to the teams above, with some breathing space below us

Must win, this is

[Fynci]

Bottom 5 will be the bottom 5. I’m pretty confident of that one.

i think potter will slide west ham down there probably wont get relegated but i can see them sliding down the table

they have 3 shots on target i the last 2 games combined both at home and 2 of those came from fulham pissing about in there own box to gift them 2 goals

i think potter is a myth

[toffee_scot]

I wouldn’t be surprised if West Ham finish the season the same league position they are in. It could be some time after the summer before we see West Ham improve significantly, assuming West Ham will be patient with Potter

[Dchans]

Need Leicester to keep with RvN, that much is certain

A completely sane, rational position having giving the guy a week and two matches to implement his vision and get them playing just how he wants

I assume you’ll be on the Moyes out train after tomorrow as well?

way to jump to conclusions

i am fully behind moyes and am happy we didnt get potter i dont like or rate him and would be more than happy to see him crash and burn

Leicester's squad is crap though regardless of manager.

Their first 3 CB choices are Vestergaard, Coady and Faes. 3 players nowhere near this level.

A bunch of CMs that are crabs but people will tell you are really good in Winks, Skipp and Ndidi.

Mavididi is good but not special. Fatawu can't hack the step up from the championship.

Vardy might grab a goal but is finished.

I don't doubt that Potter is a decent coach. However, I don't think he's the type who can come into a shitstorm and turn it around overnight. He's the type of coach who needs a bit of time and patience in order to fully implement his methods.

He would have been absolutely the wrong choice for Everton when we were showing Dyche the door, and I don't think that the powers that be at West Ham will show the patience that he needs to turn things around there either. I think he will, given the chance, but it's going to be a bumpy ride initially.

In our current position, we simply don't have the luxury of being able to allow a new manager to come in and have a slightly rocky transitional period. We need someone who can come in and stabilise us quickly, hence why we turned to Moyes.

Southampton are as bad as anything we have seen in the PL and Leicester are down. Unless something very strange happens and they sack RVN, they have no strengths to worry about. Just a bag of shite all across the pitch.

I think Ipswich at least have Delap and something about them in terms of fight to get results. Wolves have a terrible defence but can score goals and win games which gives them a better chance.

Like a broken record, we are bad, but fortunately I think there will be 3 teams worse than us at the end of the season. It will be tight but would back us over the others.

This. Basically the same as the past few seasons!

[Shogun]

4 point gap. Ipswich and Wolves to play City and Chelsea. Game in hand against the shite at home.

[Cozzie]

Thats a great spring board hopefully.

Winnable fixtures.

Hopefully a new signing or two.

I'll feel 95% confident if City do Ipswich later.

[Gash]

Hopefully the good City turn up and the good Chelsea tomorrow and it'll have been a decent weekend.
