Your NOT going down. Burnley and Qpr will Think its sunderland or newcastle for the 3rd relegation spot. ( i hope )
I think it's fairly obvious Burnley and us are down. I really hope you guys survive you totally deserve to. Your last few weeks of gutsy performances have been fantastic. From the pi55poor play I've seen of Sunderland, I recon they deserve to join us but I do fear for the Newcastle fans and think the wheels have come off there.
Alot of people unsure where there (Newcastles) next points coming from, 2 players out for the next game, lets hope their reserves have more desire than the first team, Jack Colback and their right winger (cant remember his name) are the only ones that came out of that with any dignity.
I think QPR - and possibly Burnley - will be relegated next weekend I'm afraid. Incredible to think we were below both of those teams a couple of weeks ago. We'd have been relegated by now if it wasn't for this tremendous run. Both clubs could still have a part to play though if QPR can beat Newcastle and Burnley beat Hull and/or Villa! I think Sunderland are in big trouble if they don't beat Everton away next weekend.
The whole things on a knife edge LG, lose to Southampton next weekend and we could be right back in the mire
It will be interesting to see what side Chelsea will play against them, they have already won the league, so lets hope they don't put out the u21s against Sunderland or something stupid like that. Lets hope Pearsons strong squad against Chelsea is a good indicator to them to keep playing the likes of Hazard and Fabregas until the end of the season.
If they do, I think it's fair to say the ostriches at the FA will be getting a call, preferably from big Nige himself!
I can't see Jose putting the kids out. He won't want to see Chelsea lose another game and after what Sunderland did to them at the bridge last season he will want to beat them this year. They get the trophy that day aswell so they will want to win
Oh absolutely. But I can't see us not winning ANY of our remaining games though. One win SHOULD do it if Everton win next weekend and we don't lose to Sunderland.
God yesterday was abit nerve-racking. They had to much of the ball for me, but I guess it´s whats in the left hand corner of your screen that counts. So Burnley gone (which is a shame) & QPR all but. 2 out of 3 for me. I still say there is about 8 teams that are worse than us in the prem (with next seasons promoted teams included) If we build a DEF rock solid as possible then we won´t be in a relegation fight again this time next season. It must only be onwards & up wards for us from now on
They did, but did nothing with it. Funny enough, the only time I was really worried was in the 92nd minute, but then I just reminded myself we were TWO up!
Possession is over rated They had a lot of the ball but did absolutely fook all with it. It was the most comfortable I've felt watching us in a long while. They carried no threat at all, very poor.
Newcastle had a lot of the ball too, I don't think we've had more possession than our opponents for a long time. We never really looked like conceding, and even though I was disappointed with Southampton, I really think that was a game where we won because of our quality than the opponent's lack of.
I wouldn't be surprised if it's a deliberate tactic. The three centre backs can soak up the pressure, and Vardy, Schlupp, Albrighton and Mahrez have the pace to catch teams on the break.
Agreed, but I'd sooner see Villa go down than Hull despite the hassle some of their fans have given us on the board over the last couple of years!
