In today's Guardian. [Link]

BTW, we're not included.

 


We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Magic Number is only 12!

 


Speroni would've saved it!

One tidbit from the article: why are we not among the likely suitors for a relegated Jordan Pickford?

We wouldn't be able to compete with the big clubs for him. Man City arsenal and spurs all interested as mentioned in the article.

Very encouraging that we are not considered a relegation contender, but it's not over until the fat lady etc etc.
The Guardian seems to favour Swansea for the third relegation place and Hull escaping. Swansea hit by poor morale and injuries. Their fans forum seems to agree.

 


The right place at the right time

Steeeve wants to go home & Hennessy is out of contract as is Jules. Unlikely that jules will get a new playing contract so we'll need at least 1 new decent keeper. Pickford is probably the best of those likely to get relegated so would be fair game for another EPL club which we will hopefully still be.

 


Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five!

Swansea and Hull do not play each other, and Swansea have the lighter schedule, I'd say. Hull have us and Spurs as their last two games - being the 1st and 2nd best performing teams at the moment.

If the two teams' results go equally well (or badly) up until then, I suspect that Swansea will nick safety over Hull. Of course, if they both go on a good run, they could both nick it over us!

Both teams are away this weekend. Hull's is the more winnable - Stoke - except that they don't win on the road. Unless Swansea cheer up, I think Watford will be too strong for them. Both losing would be fantastic for us, of course.

I've shown 13 on the theoretical safety target thread.... so as to remove goal difference as an issue
