True. 40points has a magic feel to it though. If we get 45 points by game 19.... that's us bang on the target. We have 30 after 12. Just need 5 more wins from 7 games
No I meant the way the season is going between top sides and bottom sides 35 points will be the target for safety not 40 ffs
I was only taking the piss anyway mate. I was surprised at our record against sides in the bottom three; 35% win rate prior to today over twenty games (38% from twenty-one now)
Lol That stat didn’t surprise me - that’s what leads to my pessimism lmao I would like to see that stat over the years tbh
I assume it's at the time of playing rather than who ended the season in the bottom three? Not that it makes a great deal of difference
Yeah it is - it’s bottom three at time of playing, cause normally by the end they are out of the bottom three after playing us lol And I am certain that stat would be high - certainly feels it from most of my life But as you have noticed I can be fairly pessimistic
for me: keep back 5 together. I think however we will rest someone before psg. that scares me This game is perfect for fabinho. he can barrel around thumping lads. Milner should play... but who knows. do we go 4231.again?
As much as I want to agree, I also want us to take TAA out for a few games as I really think he needs a rest. However, Gomez must stay at CB too, he's been as good as VVD so far this season! That means one of Clyne, Fabinho or Milner going RB and I can't see any of those happening.
Watford were good early did but are more inconsistent now, not an easy fixture but winnable if we turn up.
