They always stay up. I thought people would have learned by now that they have some fire in them, and they engage it at the right time. Plus this time they have a rapidly improving Moses on their side, and they've found a new system that works for them. I reckon around 14-15th for them.
Personally I don't care who wins the PL or the cups - I'm more worried about SAFC ! At best with the current squad we'll be lucky to get mid-table. At worst we'e looking at a relegation struggle. I can understand those that are predicting relegation as the lack of signings is really starting to worry me now !

Alot of people have Southampton in bottom 3 but i think they'll do a Norwich and Lambert will get 15+ like Holt did, they also have Rodriquez and Sharp all 3 would walk into our team atm. Reading have strengthened well. I actually think all 3 promoted teams will survive once again. Down I think Wigan, especially if they lose Moses. One to many miracles for Martinez this, he should have gone this summer he deserves a bigger club West Brom, an absolute stinker of a managerial appointment, he'll be gone by xmas and there'll be no saving them The other spot is one from about 6-7 which includes us. Our end of season form can't be ignored, they werent performing for Mon and that will worry him. We are really dependant on who we bring in because that current squad has relegation written all over it and that not being doom and gloom thats just being real. We have the worst strike force in the league and also half the championship. We all know that and I trust Mon will rectify it.

MArtin O'Neill has a history of making average players (Leicester and Villa when he first joined) good - we have a lot of average players and a couple of exceptional ones so I think we'll be OK - especially as the manager has admitted he's still looking to bring in a few new players. Current Squads: Champs: Man City Relegated: Swansea (Second Season Syndrome), Wigan and West Ham (The last one is hopeful more than anything!) FA Cup: Everton League Cup: Sunderland Champion League: PSG That is my opinion
Only prediction is SAFC top 6-7. Its a long season and our manager will get it right. Might be a slow start but remember our explosive mid season last year. 3-4 quality players brought in, 1-2 in January and we will be OK.
Seriously lads - I can see us struggling this year - unless some new quality signings are made before the end of the window ! Every pre-season for the last 2 or 3 I've been optimistic for a top half finish - at the moment I just can't feel the same for this season !
