Relegation 2022/23

[Kev The Rat]

I’d be content enough if Southampton won. Theoretically, the more teams in the mix the better.

Equally, a Leicester win wouldn’t be terrible.

At this point Leicester aren’t on our radar

It’s a bad result

 

[Davideeyore]

Oh poo.

 

[kenada_blue]

Leicester not bothering with a defence today?

They haven't all season. Conceded 7 more than we have. They've also scored 36 goals though

 

[Gilbert..]

Yeah but both results the same, zero points, regardless of effort

Do you really think that? Do you not think as gutting as it was that they came away knowing they were competetive until the 98th minute. Where as Everton went off that same pitch a few days earlier totally embarrassed, trounced and collapsed without a trace.

I know what attitude i would like to be taking into the rest of this relegation fight.

 

[4737carlin]

Not good

I dunno, Leicester are terrible, we are just as likely to come above them

Of course they are on our radar. We can go level on points with them tomorrow.

Imagine giving up because a team is 3 points ahead.

We are only off the bottom spot on goal difference now.

 

[LucBesson]

They're terrible but they also have three strikers that would walk into our team

Yeah but it's still no points, we had to to go into that game thinking about Sunday, but for Bournemouth that's a killer to moral, ours is forgotten about 20 minutes after it ended

Yeah and if we go our next 10 unbeaten we can finish mid table

Ffs we can barely score there’s a limit to our own expectations. We’re more reliant than ever on other teams

 

[jonnyboy316]

They surely will just send a reserve team and put out a stronger first 11 in second leg if needed.

They have also won their last five premier league games against Villa so it's like the match up v them, Villa can't handle their physicality and frequently concede from set pieces.

Moyes has never one a trophy. This is a really good chance. They won’t be playing the reserves. Either way it is a distraction that removes their focus off the Villa game

Sorry, I’m not entertaining the argument of someone who thinks Leicester is too far ahead to catch when we could literally draw level with them tomorrow.

 

[blue to the bone]

We have to pick up points regardless.
So if we win tomorrow we are level on points with Leicester. If we continue to lose it don't matter what others do does it.

 

[luuk_deventer]

No chance we finish above Leicester. They have players like Maddison, Barnes and Tielemans who can hurt teams. Even Iheanacho and Daka have scored as much as our highest scorer.

Their defence is the reason they are where they are but if you can score goals you always have a chance.

i think that explains it then. I mean if we hadnt had our thoughts on sunday we might have won.
Get real.
Given the 0 points for both id take a battling performance ongoing. Than rolling over. Far more concerning.
