CB Fry Posted 16 March, 2022 Share Posted 16 March, 2022 (edited) Six straight defeats and one solitary goal scored in those six games. I wonder why we dont get the "I told you so, I told you so, Potter is much better than Ralph" victory lap posts on this forum any more. I mean, what happened? Of course, Potter's track record of never finishing above Ralph was obviously pretty clear evidence of how much better he is than our guy. At least he looks on track to maintain that record.

Six straight defeats in the league is quite something, bit too early to be on the beach but they have lost that edge that was picking up points with late equalisers, look quite poor now. Title race still interesting at least. Chelsea through which means they'll play champions league 1/4 final either side of playing us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarvSFC Posted 16 March, 2022 Share Posted 16 March, 2022 If Brighton had a goal scorer they would win the league. Contrasting with other clubs, who would get a lot worse, if they were given a goal scorer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheaf Saint Posted 17 March, 2022 Share Posted 17 March, 2022 If Everton lose tonight they are as good as down IMO. Their remaining fixtures are horrendous, with their next 'winnable' game being Brentford at home on the penultimate day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’re a bit like West Ham three or four years ago, I honestly don’t see them going down. They have enough talented individuals to pull off a surprise win or two and stay up. I think Leeds look most likely to drop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although defensively they are a mess, think they have too much attacking talent to get out of it. Think in reality the bottom three as it stands are going.

Micky Posted 17 March, 2022 Share Posted 17 March, 2022 3 way fight between Leeds, Everton and Burnley. Hard to say who might get out of that scrap, historically you point to Burnleys ability to put results together, but I'm not convinced this year. Would love to see Everton go, but don't think it's going to happen, also think that Leeds might just avoid it as well - Burnley it is for me.

They have enough talented individuals to pull off a surprise win or two and stay up. I think Leeds look most likely to drop. They might have some talented individuals, but they haven't managed anything resembling a surprise win all season. Both Burnley and Watford have shown recently that they are capable of winning games they are expected to lose. Everton just don't have that ability. Since FL took over they have got a very laboured FA cup win against Brentford and beaten a very poor Leeds still playing kamikaze football under Bielsa. In every other game they have been utter shit, and I see no sign of that changing anytime soon. Look at their fixtures and ask yourself honestly where are their points going to come from?

S-Clarke Posted 17 March, 2022 Share Posted 17 March, 2022 It will be an interesting watch tonight, I thought they'd shuffle themselves away from it, I didn't expect them to lose to Wolves. So, if they also lose this one it does look pretty tough for them. They do still have better players than Watford and Burnley though, that isn't always enough...but having Richarlison or DCL does make it a tiny bit more likely that they'll grab the odd win here and there when you least expect it.

LiberalCommunist Posted 17 March, 2022 Share Posted 17 March, 2022 That two year deal they gave to Bertrand looks like a terrible bit of business right now. They may well be paying that off without him playing another minute of football for them. A pretty sad end in the cold light of day, but glad we didn't hand out another sentiment driven contract.

Potenially finishing below Newcastle after the dismal first half of the season they had would be pretty crap. Draw please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
