As things stand, I’d have to agree with the betting companies, most of which have us struggling this year (and most have us odds on for relegation).

It's quite funny reading other clubs' fans predictions of who'll go down. A few of them say us but it's the likes of Leeds, Newcastle, West Brom and Fulham saying it.
Quite a lot of the rest are fair points. It's the youth aspect I disagree with. There is a lot of potential in Archer, Vassilev and Ramsey. I can't comment on Barry as I have not seen him play.
As a Fulham fan it’s nice to see us written off already, by so called experts and fans of other clubs, a bit like Sheffield United were last year, I’m hopping we don’t do a Fulham of the 18/19 ie relegated by just after Xmas of that season, hopping we do a villa of last season, I meant the last month not the previous 10 months, I’ll be quite happy if we’re in with a chance of staying up with 3 or 4 games to play, as to who goes down anybody from Sheffield United downwards, if any of those clubs lose there star players due to injury or transferred out they will struggle
I'll make a wild guess what two of the Ws will say.

If it's Tim Ream and Odoi again I don't see much hope for you personally but didn't see you enough last year to know if they're regulars anymore or just squad players now. If you can keep things tighter than last time then you've got a chance with Mitrovic to win 8/9 games.

Another tricky wide man who couldn't step up to premier league for either Leicester or Brighton.Didn't you sign Cavaleiro from Wolves for 15m aswell?
