Might actually be not to shabby for Burnley to win. Shoe in for playoffs at least, we maybe better off thinking about gap to 7th for now and less teams in touch the better.
Norwich were supposed to be a big threat and favourites for promotion on here ... ... they've had some dreadful results recently.
We’re competing against good teams at the top. And perhaps they’ll end up finishing higher than us in time. Given their resource advantage they really should do. However quite what everyone on here is watching to rate them so far and away above us is beyond me. There’s nothing terrifying about Leeds, Burnley or Sheffield United.
I don't see what some do in Burnley and to a certain extent Sheff Utd. They both have excellent defensive records that nobody can argue with, but Burnley in particular are average at best attacking wise which in my opinion is the more important side to the game. They are relying heavily on individual quality and that can only take you so far. Them individuals are very good though so maybe it is sustainable. Leeds, in my opinion, are very good. Their away form is dodgy though. But the numbers they put up week in, week out will get them over the line. Happy to be in the conversation with the parachute payment clubs though.
I'm in agreement I have seen nothing in this league to fear but neither can I recall anyone say they rate them way above us.
Yeah agreed. To me leeds are comfortably the team who are capable of the best football. The good thing for the rest of us is that they are also the ones who are most likely to absolutely blow it game to game. That’ll keep them in touch. Burnley and blades are both grinders who are better on paper than they are on the pitch imo.
Agree 100%. Think Leeds are best in league, we bossed Sheffield United at their place and they are just so ****ing ordinary. Literally having the ability to sub and rest players is getting them points for me. They play really basic football setup by an average at best gaffer who thinks he’s **** g Ancelotti. Burnley do have some brilliant talent and they show it at times but they are a Scott Parker side so they’ll never line it all up. Coventry and Boro we need to watch as well though, I still think they will be prominent end season both of them.
