That's the old Swansea, that goal. Lovely.

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

They're higher in the table than they were 24 months ago. Remove the freak 12 months, and they're at the same level as before.

That's what is so odd....perhaps there is a footballing god with a wicked sense of humour.

 

[st_brendy]

You score once against this Leicester team, and they just fall apart. Even though that first goal has often not looked like coming in a lot of their matches.

 

[Saint Helen]

Yes!! 2-0

Great weekend for Swans.

Bye by Leicester

 

[st_brendy]

Leicester, Boro and one more I reckon.

I'm currently Sunderland, Boro and one other. (I know I probably should have learnt my lesson in relation to Sunderland though...)

As deep in trouble as Leicester are, I do think they're the most capable out of themselves, Palace, Hull and Bmouth (if they get properly sucked in), of going and picking up 7 points from 3 games or something.

Swansea have hit form at such the right time. Not only are the currently moving four points clear, but after Chelsea away next, they have Burnley, Hull, Bmouth and Boro is succession. What a time for them to have those fixtures.

Well apart from the rugby, yes (eh, H?)

Plus points to Leicester going down:

1) Jamie Vardy

2) The media will have a different club to criticise for selling all their best players

3) Robbie Savage MIGHT get less TV air-time

I nearly added Sunderland to complete the 3 but like you I just can't fully write them off yet...

 

[Qwerty]

Sunderland, Palace, Leicester.

 

[fatletiss]

Sunderland, Palace, Leicester.

I still think Sam has enough games left to save them. How many games has he been in charge?

 

[st_brendy]

I hope that Boro, Sunderland and Bmouth all survive for the simple reason that I don't fancy any of their players. But the others have players who I think would be good additions to our squad (not squad, not necessarily starting XI), and getting relegated increases their availability.

He has made them worse

 

[st_brendy]

Got to score mate, got to score.

 

[st_brendy]

Yeah. At least they could score under Pardew (I think when he left, only that current top four had more goals than Palace). Now they can't score, or defend.

But still only two points adrift.

 

[Beef]

Palace/Leicester/Sunderland for me

 

[fatletiss]

For now. I still wouldn't write him off though. I don't like him or his style, but if he can get them to understand what he wants, he still has the ability to get them out.

 

[Libby]

Heard yesterday that at the start of weekend Palace had same amount of goals away from home as Chelsea

Boro is my favourite currently.

Agree, I still think they will get out of it tbh. They've got goals in that team which Boro & Leicester are lacking for me
