    If they carry on their current form for the rest of the season they will end up on 7 points

    A rare appearance this season for Piroe.

    He'd be on my list of potential January loanees.

    Wolves might actually get less points than us. They're upcoming fixtures:

    Villa (A)
    Forest (H)
    Man Utd (H)
    Arsenal (A)
    Brentford (H)
    Liverpool (A)
    Man Utd (A)

    I still don’t think they’ll get less points than Derby, or us. They’ve got better players imo. I feel like they went on a similar awful run last season, but then went on a few decent runs too. They’re probably finally relegated this time though.

    Yeah they'll definitely go down. Miles off already and can't rely on 3 promoted sides.

    They probably will beat our total but I can see them being in a similar position at the end of the year looking at those fixtures.

    There are two major differences between Wolves' awful start this season and their awful start last season.

    Firstly, they had a really tough set of fixtures to start last season with. Once the easier games came around, the points picked up. Whereas this season, they've already played - and invariably lost - many of their kinder fixtures. So their lowly position this season isn't a false one.

    Secondly, one of the three promoted sides is actually making a good fist of it this season, thereby opening the door for one of the other 17 to go down instead.

    I wouldn't at all be surprised if the relegated three are the current bottom three.

    I still think West Ham will involved in a relegation battle. Three from the bottom four for me.

    Not quite that bad - it was a fairly soft slap but had to go.

    Fantastic result for Everton. Catastrophic one for Man United. Pleased for Moyes.

    When was the last time Everton were above Liverpool in the table?
