Relegation 2022/23

[PeregrineT]

Tottenham, West Ham and Palace all concern me here. All will be on the beach and I fancy them not to be bothered at all about their league form
We cant see ourselves as anywhere near safe yet, there could be a few very nervy weekends coming up

I can see West Ham as the primary concern, and maybe Palace. I dont think Tottenham will pack it in though, I think you have to both take into account what the club is playing for, AND the players. Tottenham will be either A. Fighting for 4th, or if they dont do well enough to challenge for it, B. Fighting to avoid 7th and playing in the Europa conference league. Plus, they have enough fringe players who will have something to prove and fight for more time next season there or somewhere else.

Then again Bournemouth and Wolves will be just as likely as West Ham to not care.

 

[Infernus]

that could be said about Wolves and Bournemouth

Indeed it could, but it's Everton

Just had quite a funny encounter at the doctors.
Doctor: your blood pressure is a bit high, any stresses in your life?
Me: not really just football stuff.
Doctor : Everton fan then ?
To be honest he said I’ve seen a higher percentage of Everton fans recently than what I normally do.

I suppose the thing to do before you mortgage off your parachute payments is to make sure you don't get relegated.

Yeah that's why they sacked Rodgers and brought in Smith lol

Leicester's punt on Smith has backfired

When they parted company with Brendan Rodgers last month, Leicester were already in deep trouble after slipping into the relegation zone.

The decision to axe a coach who previously guided them to successive fifth-place finishes and an FA Cup came purely out of desperation to avoid the drop. Why, then, did they decide to take a punt on Dean Smith, a Championship-level manager whose top-flight credentials have never been proven?

Smith's greatest managerial achievement to date was masterminding Aston Villa's success in the 2019 Championship playoffs. The following season, up in the Premier League, they narrowly avoided relegation by a single point after spending close to £150million in the transfer market.
The former Walsall and Brentford boss was then sacked early in the next season after a run of five straight defeats, before suffering relegation with Norwich last season and eventually losing his job there in December. Thus, the decision to rest their Premier League hopes on his shoulders was always a gamble.

Leicester can't have many complaints if they drop to the Championship after hiring a second-tier coach.

No chance is that 'Gary O'Neil' going into this game, just thinking all's done.

He's one serious character and wants proper recognition as a premiership manager.

We have 2 home games left 'whoever they may be against' this is where we can do our bit..

( I just don't want the high from Brighton to be drained by city )

I also want 'Davek' Singing Pattersons name come end of season...

I like how you've written that as if his name isn't actually Gary O'Neil and it's some sort of elaborate hoax.

Chelsea concern me as well because they’re crap and Frank Lampard is managing them.

I think Leeds will get 6 points. Just got a feeling they are a banker this week and will also beat one of West Ham and spurs.

I don't see how they're a banker when they're playing Newcastle who are quite excellent and score goals for fun. They have a chance of 6 points though, granted. That's why we need at least 4 more.

Just a horrible feeling I’ve got about Newcastle imploding in the last few weeks. Hopefully proves unfounded.

Leeds won't get another point. They will know they can't draw their way in, so will need to go for it. Leaving themselves open. Gonna have to play anti Fat Sam football.
