2024/25 Relegation Thread

I thought Leicester were very poor when we played them particularly as they were at home.
I think they will be in the mix for the 3rd relegation spot.

They will but they've got enough prem experience to keep grind out results. They've been in every single prem game they've played so far and only lost one by two goals (and they were level at Arsenal going into 94th minute).

Their fans still aren't having Cooper though so that negativity will probably stop them fully pulling away from bottom 4-5.

think they will be very close to it all season and with maybe a psr charge waiting for them cut put them right in the mix.

I've put a lot about them on another post so won't repeat. But what I'll say, is you get quite quickly get cut adrift, and the pressure that causes is immense. I still think that 10 point penalty did us in for that. We just never got out, and then it starts affecting performances. You see it with a lot of sides, the players eventually just sort of give up. They look close to that point to me.

Whoever doesn't win for them V Palace is in huge trouble.

They only stayed up that season a while back, by spending an absolute fortune in January.

its a good point, we lost a lot of winnable games last season because psychologically I think the players were afraid to take the risks required to win games. Every mistake is magnified when you're down there.
 
A win against Fulham is very much needed to put us in among the rest of the bottom half and looking away from relegation. We are due a win against them as well.

In the last few seasons I have always been looking at us getting to around 20 points as a minimum by the half way stage. If we do that, I will be far less worried but we need a good run in the next 4 games.

I don't think we will go down, but I can't be bothered with another stressful season. Would be good to be pushing to be the best of the bottom half this season.

Three wins out of Fulham, Southampton, West Ham, Brentford and Wolves will sort things out nicely so just need to go out and get them.

Yeah, I think 10 points out of the next 6 will do fine. More would obviously be nice, but that puts us on 18 points(midtable) after 14 matches, meaning we have 24 matches to merely get the other half.

You usually see trouble early if its a real danger. 13 of the 15 recently relegated teams were in the bottom 4 by week 14, and they stayed there.
