Relegation 2022/23

[maccavennie]

24 goals in 32 matches and people think we are going to actually pick up enough points to stay up

Absolutely lol’ing

Nah its sound mate cos Kev bought us Paulo Goalazzio in Jan and Dyche has just been getting him fit. Plus the little magician Jimi Gobblerot from the Dutch league we purchased has been unfortunate with his tight hamstring.

Now that 1 goal Dom is back up and running, all we need is 1 goal Coleman, 1 goal Onana and 2 goal Doucoure and we'll be like the Harlem Globetrotters and we can park all the noise of relegation and align ourselves to the real important matters which is Michael Keanes new band called Keggers & the Tugboats.

I think people love pissing there kicks, people don't know what to do with themselves when we get a positive result.

Rubbish

I'm looking at Leeds' fixtures now and if they dont beat Leicester at home I dont even see them getting any points. Maybe a final day win against Spurs at home because we all know what Spurs are like.

Leeds will be in a world of trouble if they dont beat Leicester.

Was just looking myself, that Leicester game is high stakes for both - id be surprised if they got anything at Bourmouth away - Bourmouth are tough, a real team and people underestimate them - be a tough game for them. WHU maybe something in that for them.

Agree its the one that stood out for me to - I trust a flaky Spurs not a lot on the last day.

...yes, and yesterday's point awsay at a Palace team flying was a positive result.

Some of them even say Palace were flat and we should have taken more...no they weren't, their game plan was thwarted by Everton and we almost nicked it too.

A good marker laid down for the Newcastle game.

Could see them rolling the dice on their manager if they lose that, especially as Leicester would have shown a clear new manager bounce at that point.

A combination of Leeds cratering and us getting two wins should see us through.

I really dont believe in the Leicester revival though. I expect Leeds to turn them over unfortunately.

Again!?

Gracia was a poor appointment to begin with, like Jones at Southampton who didn't last long.

We got relegated last Saturday.

Yep, watching that “performance” confirmed it for me. Actually, seeing the team sheet prior to the game got the alarm bells ringing.

Who are you putting up against them? Holgate? Mina? Keane?

As I said before, Leicester have conceded 10 more goals than us. So whatever partner we have for Tarkowski has been a better duo than Leicester have had.

The stats speak for themselves.

You just haven't coped without Evans.

That late in the day? More disruption that would be.

We need to win games ourselves and stop assuming other teams will keep on losing. They might lose, but someone might easily put two wins together as well.

Our refusal to take the initiative to go and win games is going to send us down unless we change our style. The last two weeks the games have been there for the taking and we sat off and showed far too much respect. The lack of men we get into the box in attacking areas is a major issue and a total embarassment at times. Yes we lack quality but we don't help ourselves either by refusing to get into scoring positions. Good things happen to those who make the effort to get into the 6 yard box.

Soyuncu hasn't played all season because of Rodgers but ok. Evans is finished unfortunately and wasn't performing well before his latest injury

If they look like losing every game then they could roll the dice, as Gracia won't be there next year anyway. They need a new keeper more than anything. If you put Leeds's keeper in our side we'd be down already. We're capable of clean sheets, Leeds aren't.

So why are we having a debate over best CB unit? You clearly have no settled one.
