They don’t have the financial clout of clubs like Leeds or Fulham so they’re automatically at a disadvantage. Second season syndrome is a bitch, as Sheff Utd and Leeds found out. With Forest, play-off winners often struggle, and I don’t think Neco Williams or Lewis O’Brien are good enough to offset their largely poor squad quality overall. Bournenouth or Southampton for the third spot, but have seen a few people saying Wolves could be in trouble too. Another tough season for Everton surely?

fox_up_north Posted 7 July 2022 Posted 7 July 2022 Everton are an outside shout to go down. Think it's a fight between Ralph, Lampard and Marsch as to who goes first. Can see Forest squeaking 17th, which is fine because I really like the idea of us getting to beat them 4 times in a row.
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 7 July 2022 Posted 7 July 2022 Marsch has just bought a load of Red Bull Energy yanks hasn't he? Skybet incoming y'all 1

Which top team would realistically buy him? PSG maybe? If the Chelsea rumours are true I feel their time at the top is coming to an end with their career mode transfer strategy. I've heard 3 or 4 people on talksport saying the only reason he doesn't press is because he's not been told to... when he's 37, has never done it and failed awfully every time he was asked to do it last season. I wish I could make a living talking absolute bollocks while sipping lattes.

Without his goals man utd are scraping top half. He's still got it and don't let the fact man utd are absolutely garbage fool you into thinking he hasn't anymore. 1
Phenom Posted 8 July 2022 Posted 8 July 2022 He should have gone to Man City. They probably win the CL if he had gone there. 1 1

Leeds maybe but they've made some decent signings along with Fulham. I would go with Forest, Bournemouth, Southampton at this point. Leeds will go down. Southampton continue to struggle but just have enough about them to stay up. I can't see them being worse than 3 of Leeds/Bournemouth/Fulham/Forest/Brentford.
SuperMike Posted 8 July 2022 Posted 8 July 2022 I notice that, in the Premier League table published today by Sky, we are eleventh - just behind Leeds and just ahead of Liverpool. I'm going to make the most of this moment cos I'm pretty certain that it'll be the best position we'll attain this season! The transfer window has been non-existant - the football will continue to be dire - nothing will ever change Kaspers fear of coming for corners - the injury farce will continue and Rodgers will continue to obstinately ignore any pointers made on ways to improve (he knows best). COYB! 1

I can't see them being worse than 3 of Leeds/Bournemouth/Fulham/Forest/Brentford. Southampton are a couple of years away I think. They're just one of those teams that will sit comfortably in the bottom half for a few years with the odd foray into about 9th before dropping 1
Stadt Posted 8 July 2022 Posted 8 July 2022 Southampton's team is dogshit, they've just been lucky there's been far too many awful sides floating around the bottom 6. Newcastle are better, Burnley have gone, the promoted sides are stronger than last years. 21/22 - 15th - 40 pts - 42:67 20/21 - 15th - 43 pts - 43:67 19/20 - 11th - 52 pts - 51:62 They've stuck with Hassenhuttl and only ever made incremental changes with the squad, rubbish away day so about time they ****ed off. 1

That 20-21 is crazy considering they were top in October or November, proper Rodgers-level end of season form

Forest and Bournemouth have a lot to prove - I think most years in the Championship that they don't get promoted from watching some of their games last season. I think Fulham are best equipped to stay up. Bournemouth I don't rate but Forest are extremely well drilled, they're like Brentford of last year imo, their signings have been shrewd. They knocked us and Arsenal out of the FA cup then ran Liverpool very close. Fulham will stay up easily.
cruzFOX Posted 8 July 2022 Posted 8 July 2022 There’s always atleast 1 promoted team that does well. It could be Fulham maybe. Forest I’m not sure as they’ve lost a few key players. It’s a steep learning curve the premier league and if these teams aren’t ready it can get rough especially against man city, Liverpool etc.

LCFCCHRIS Posted 8 July 2022 Posted 8 July 2022 Wouldn't pay over 50 for a league match tbh (barring it being a title decider or something then would consider)

If you honestly believe that no club would want Ronaldo there's no point in carrying on this conversation. He's worth his weight in gold for shirt sales alone. Let alone the fact he's still banging in goals.

Again, there's a reason he wasn't wanted at Juventus and that a bigger club than man united didn't want him. What's the point of a Leicester fan being his fanboy and reiterating this drivel? 1

Most of us think the cost of a cinema ticket these days is ridiculously expensive but it's pretty much the same amount of time spent being entertained but with a much higher probability of satisfaction. Hell I can get gig tickets for a band I love that might tour the UK once or twice in my lifetime for twenty odd quid tops. Why on earth are we paying fifty quid for one match at our local football club? It's fvcking insane, we're all tapped. Edited 8 July 2022 by Finnegan 3
