I've watched a lot of football this weekend and think the only teams to look worse than us at present were Burnley (playing Man City), Sunderland (playing Liverpool away),  and Watford (God knows how we lost to that lot).

Worrying.

 

Sounds like we won't be in the bottom 3 then Col ...   :thumbup:

But then other weeks will see those sides playing well and others poorly. You can't judge it on one week's football.

T his thread is stupid, we have a team of PL champions, we have added to make the squad better.

For the first time ever we have a campions league agenda, in which we surpassed all expectations, isn't it logical that are PL form is not what we hope for?

Would anyone seriously swap with Spurs?, not going to win the league and out of the CL?, with a wimper.

Wouldn't like us to risk our premier league status though mate. As we know it can take a long time to get back

Just in case anybody thinks this is directed at them......................... It's not :thumbup:

 

It's Impossible for us to win the league ( Not Champions League )

 

So we'll end up somewhere below this years Champions.

 

Let's just hope the contracts say, you get a wage cut if we're relegated

I'm not judging it on one week's worth of football. I'm judging it on current form.

Not really sure why Spurs are the yard stick we're measuring ourselves against but if we're relegated in may and they're not then yes I would swap.

Well no we don't but if we carry on the way we're playing we will be. Spurs almost certainly won't be so yes I would

and i suppose last year, when we top with 30points, you would have chosen staying up, against winning the league.

oh yea of little faith. God help us.

Oh come on you pair !! ....     What he's saying is ...    If we were top with 30 points you would want us to stay up ...  Errr ...   as opposed to winning the league ??   ......    Errrr ...    Hang on a minute ...    If we were top that's not as good as ...    Err ...    Not being relegated ...   Errrr ....    Errrr.    Nope I haven't got a fookin clue what he's on about either.   :huh:

I think some people on here consider the prospect of relegation impossible as we were 'Last seasons Champions'. You can 'Opinion-ate this' and 'Opinion-ate that' however the facts are that we have so far been beaten by Hull, West Brom, Watford and have quite frankly been humiliated by all the 'Top' teams we have played bar Arsenal and have conceded 15 goals in only 4 games against 'Top' clubs.

 

We have just managed to scrape 1 point AT HOME against MIDDLESBROUGH. 

 

Looking at the table and the teams below us, as suggested by someone previous, i can't see many teams that i actually consider to be worse than us at present. I also can't see where we are likely to pick up points in the near future with our next home games being Man City, Everton, West Ham, Chelsea, Man Utd and Liverpool.

 

I do not think for one minute that CR should be sacked and i do believe that this team can avoid relegation however i can not, like some people on here, be blind to the prospect of a relegation battle just because we did well last year.

We've played Tottenham,Liverpool,United,Chelsea all away from home + Arsenal at home.. Once everybody's back fit we will start to pick up points and climb the table. I think we'll finish mid table (8th-12th).

We've also played West Brom, Hull, Middlesborough and Watford and picked up 1 point from those games

And we stole that 1 point if the truth be known.

How do you make that out Adejo ? OK they had the ball a lot but hardly peppered our goal, we hit the bar and had a damn site more chances, kept going till the end and beyond and got what I see as a richly deserved point ! we were NOT lucky, did NOT rob anyone and were well worth the point we got.  COYB

Games are won on goals, not chances. We had to rely on 2 penalties to come from behind to get 1 point at home!!.

 

The "Robbery" part came from the fact that our first penalty was never a penalty because HMS Morgan clearly pushed their player (just as he does time after time whe  defending).

 

Maybe your happy with a 'well deserved point'. I think it was an awful display and if i was anything to do with Middlesbrough football club i would be feeling robbed right now.

Never a penalty ??? are you actually serious ? the bloke autographed the bluddy ball ! a push doesn`t make you stick your hand up and punch the ball :-) never said I was happy to drop 2 points but we certainly did not deserve to loose the game.

Yes i am serious, it was never a penalty. If you are pushed in the back whilst already going up for a challenge then you have little control of where your arms will end up.

 

It was a clear push and its not like HMS Morgan hasnt got form for it. He is forever pushing players in the back.
