  • Chelsea
  • Manc City
  • Liverpool
  • Manc United
  • Leicester
  • Spurs
  • Arsenal
  • Everton
  • THE VILLA
  • Leeds United
  • West Ham
  • Soton
  • Crystal Palace
  • Wolves
  • Brentford
  • Burnley
  • Newcastle
  • Brighton
  • Watford
  • Norwich

Think 7th-11th will be really tight, and 15th-18th will be too.   Brentford to be a bit of a 'surprise package' and take up Brighton's position as hanging around the bottom half of the table.

21/22 season 6 matches played.
Well there's a renewed optimism after yesterday and having played 6 matches currently sit 8th
Which means we're ahead of 12 clubs in the table (pre Sunday matches)

Brentford Tottenham Watford Leicester Arsenal Crystal Palace Southampton Wolves Newcastle Leeds Burnley Norwich.

Leicester, Spurs and Arsenal are the only 3 below us that could finish ahead based on squads and recent seasons. I think it would be great to finish ahead of those 3 clubs

I like to think when all said and done we'll finish higher than Brighton
It would be another good showing for Dean Smith to be higher than Potter- who seems to get more praise than Deano in media.

Probably because they're 5th and we're 13th.

Right now 9th is looking optimistic

I think these will all finish above Villa unless Smith gets his arse into gear or the owners pull a rabbit out of the hat, managerial wise 

Leeds United
West Ham
Soton
Crystal Palace
Wolves

:(

Will there be three by the end of this season?

A couple of people said to me after Wolves that it had the feel of Leicester in the apocalypse season. I sort of nodded but thought "no chance, we're better than that now". I hope I was right.

That is unlikely, but the possibility cannot be ruled out.  We need to put points on the board really quickly, otherwise the pressure will build. We have the players to be comfortably safe, but so did other clubs that made the drop.

I said at the time Wolves was a season defining game. It was just such a catastrophic collapse it either goes one way or the other. It went the other.

At this rate, we’re not going to finish above many.

They need to act, and then be prepared to spend £25 million and a couple of loans in Jan.
