2024/25 Relegation Thread

I got told we had no hope at home to this Brighton team.

Taking chances. They did, we didn't, that day

Back down a place. Come on Brighton ffs!

 

[Blue Willy]

Glad Ipswich have Newcastle, Arsenal and Chelsea next as they’d probably go above us with 1 win in the next couple of games.

 

[NorthernBlue]

Brighton are such an overrated team because they play half decent football, proper hipsters team.

One of them teams who have crept into the “I’d be happy with a point” group of teams by many on here. Which is shameful.

 

[LABlue2]

Back down to 5 relegation contenders

What a waste that 1st game was. In fact the first 4 games was a disgusting giveaway. We were so undercooked and well off it.

We started ok but gave up at 1 nil. Awful performance

The root of our problems this season.
He never has teams ready for start of season.
He just writes off the first month and sets the tone for whole season.
We should be comfortably mid table after fixtures we've had.

This is the big difference between Palace and Wolves. Palace can actually defend competently with Guehi and the other CB, Wolves can't so Palace will very shortly be in the comfortable mid table pack.

Wolves have approached Vitor Pereira according their local press.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

I always thought in the back of my mind that Palace would be okay

Been a very odd first half of the season for them. Taken 7 points from Arsenal, Man. City and Man. United and also won against Spurs from 2-0 down.

Yet also blown 2-0 leads with five minutes left against Leicester and Wolves. Also didn't beat Southampton at home despite being 1-0 up at half time.

Generally though they're still doing well comfortably in the top half. Only correct to call them overrated if people think they genuinely should be challenging for top 4.

Always gonna go back to a Portuguese speaker with half their squad being from Portugal like. Probably why O'Neil struggled in fairness.

Be a litmus test for Moyes intentions if he's linked with them and they end up with someone else.

I think Moyes will hold out for us. Not that that means he should get it, but he isn't getting any younger and it's the only "big story" type move available to him now in what's left of his career, unless he ends up at Celtic one day.

I agree. He'd fancy coming back with the new stadium and a better budget than last few years if approached.

He was watching Preston-Leeds yesterday so I don't think he's interested in the Wolves job at all thankfully as he'd be a very good fit for what they need doing with their squad.
