    McCarthy looked solid enough and an improvement on Gunn. Danso played quite well, especially for a player who hasn't been given much match time. Well worth sticking with him because he will improve. Bednarek played well with the odd lapse of concentration. Jack Stephens was OK too and definitely no worse than the rest of them. Valery was iffy at times but generally tried. JWP was hopeless for most of the game and Armstrong, although rusty, was more composed. I would play Armstrong over JWP at the moment. Boufal did his best but had very little support. Was Long playing? Another hologram. Romeu and Hojbjerg put a shift in but the general man marking throughout the team was pretty dire.

    If we survive this season I would wager it will be a close run thing and will have a lot to do with other teams collapsing.

    Yep, agreed. We need our little crisis tag to roll on down to the next club pretty quick. And stick.

    Needing to rely on others to be worse than us, if we're to survive? Well no different to the last two years then.

    Regardless of what happens on Saturday - or even against Everton and Arsenal for that matter - I will continue to cling onto the facts that (a) you don't need to be a decent team in order to survive in the PL, and (b) of the 12 matches vs Norwich, Villa, Sheff Utd, Brighton, Newcastle and Watford, we still have 10 more of them to come. And that, so far, we are 2 wins from 2, without conceding.

    It would be nice to also cling onto the fact that the January transfer window exists. But as unlikely as coming away with a decent points haul from those 12 matches might feel right now, I'd put it as a darn sight higher than the likelihood of us actually doing anything worthwhile in that transfer window, based on previous form.
