Premier League season 21/22

[chaddyrovers]

Fantastic game between Man City vs Spurs. 3-2 Spurs 

[simongarnerisgod]

perusing the leeds vs man utd line ups,it was a magnificent piece of business by utd to get 20 million quid for daniel james,he`s bloody useless🙂

[simongarnerisgod]

i don`t get the hype about bielsa,leeds are a poor side defensively and an awful side in attack,be no surprise if they got dragged into the drop zone

[chaddyrovers]

Excellent game of football to watch for the neutral between Leeds and Manchester United. 

Let's hope the next game is between Wolves and Leicester.

They have had a poor season with massive injury issues but the job Bielsa has done to date is excellent. They were mid table Championship fodder when he joined.

Whilst Bielsa has done a good job there, is these injuries issues down to training methods?

We need to follow up with quite a few wins. Would have been nice if Watford had lost but hey ho. 
 

Still keeps me hoping another few weeks.

You are not going down, you will pull out.

I don’t know Blue - on the one hand we do have to play all the teams around us but on the other we’ve won just 2 games all season - I’ve seen promising signs in the last 4 games but we have to start scoring regularly and we particularly need to improve our results against those around us in the league.

Who do think is going down ? All the bottom teams are putting in performances. Who saw Watford winning at Villa ?

I can see Watford winning again this midweek too.

[K-Hod]

Said all along I think Burnley will escape as usual and I still think they will….

If that happens and we can win on Saturday, Palace will be looking over their shoulders as well! Looking at the midweek fixtures you'd imagine us and Leeds to lose, Watford could win but I think a draw is most likely.

I wish I had your confidence.

Brentford bottom of the form table and falling like a stone play Newcastle on Saturday if they loose that they are right in it.

I could do with a draw in this one. Brentford do look the most likely to get dragged in but it does require us, Newcastle and Watford to keep winning games and, at the risk of sounding like a broken record, we have managed 2 wins all season and we now need to win around half our remaining games, ideally the "right" ones against all our relegation rivals. I retain a fools hope but the realist in me knows what is coming.

Another occasion I’m really not happy about being right, but it’s going to happen, isn’t it?

We deserved that tonight as well - still a long way to go but if we can play like that most games we’ve got a chance.

Any lottery numbers to share for Saturday night, fella?!

[Mattyblue]

My mantra has always been. Dyche= PL football.

I was a little less sure when they seemed to have stopped being so resolute at the back first half of the season, but they now seem to have sorted that out.

Still every chance they go, but you can’t put it past Leeds or Newcastle or Everton not picking up the points, and Brentford are dropping like a stone.

Ridiculous fools on their forums wanting him out, just like those cretins here back in December 2010…

They do it every time, starting slowly then finishing with a flurry, just doing enough every season.

Still early to be counting chickens - lots of twists and turns still to come, I still think it more likely than not we get relegated.

They need the conditions to be right for ale house , I mean direct, football. One look outside the house last night told me Spurs wouldn’t fancy a night on’t Turf one little bit.

I saw the Liverpool-Leeds highlights. What a mismatch. 

Leeds fans should be worried.

Got Spurs at the weekend so a simple 3 points for them.

Hope you escape, mate. Much rather southern non-entities Watford, Brentford and Norwich went down

Then Dyche decides to call it a day and joins us

Haha - cheers mate, though I strongly suspect you’ll be in a minority on here. A part of me enjoys you being a league below but a bigger part would prefer the biannual lunacy of our derbies to recommence - sans the ‘bubble’ nonsense - as long as we never lose 😂

Doubt your owners would go for Dyche, he’s not seen as exotic enough for most teams. Shame as he’s a brilliant manager.
