Currently fear no-one in the league

Post by Spijed » Tue Jan 29, 2019 10:49 pm

Our current first eleven has shown in recent weeks that they are more than capable of getting results anywhere they play.

Like last season, we are back to being very hard to beat and I think it's no longer a case of where are the next points going to come from, but more likely how high we can finish in the league.

I think tonight, regardless of only getting a point, has shown that we are probably too good defensively to get relegated.

I no longer dread playing the bigger teams, and I'm already looking forward to the matches at Stamford Bridge, Anfield, along with having a good chance against Spurs (with their injuries) and even Man city (playing with the same gusto as last season). Arsenal don't count as they'll get a penalty awarded come what may.

As for those outside of the top six, every game looks winnable.

Southampton on Saturday is a very big game now.

I sort of agree, but I think we'll get smashed by Liverpool and City again.
A win tonight would have sent a huge message that we have definitely turned our season around. But a draw at Old Trafford is something to be proud of, although at the moment it doesn't feel like it.

It’s amazing the difference changing the keeper has made. Anybody still doubting that Joe was destabilising the unity of the back four, really shouldn’t be. I reckon that if Tom stays fit, we’ll be ok. Bring on Southampton.

Let's hope we can continue in the same form and get those wins/points required.
It's still going to be tough and a few bad results will put us right back in the mix.
Cardiff put up a spirited fight against Arsenal and Fulham thumped Brighton who might
just find themselves in it too if they continue as they have the last few games.

And just to add, for all those who say that being in the Prem is getting boring, I think we are about to get an exciting end to the season! :)
