Paid Members PunkStep Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 Watford to go down for me. They've looked gradually worse over the past two seasons and I don't think they'll improve on that. I think they've ridden their luck with their 'throw shit at the wall and hope it sticks' approach to players and managers alike, no stability about them at all and that stems from the owners. Seems to be a bit of dissension between the manager and key player Capoue at the moment too, so the dressing room could be tense. The three coming up are good, but I think they'll be in the relegation fight. Similar to Doog, I reckon anyone outside the top 7 can go down. I reckon the team most likely to stay up out of those 13 is Bournemouth. West Ham look to have done good business, but they could go horribly bad (I don't think they will). I can see Southampton plummeting down the table this season. Hope Stoke, West Brom and Burnley go down. Sorry Ralphy, but you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 I really hope Brighton stay up. I like Brighton for reasons i can't even verbalise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 Me too, probably because I love the place. I want Huddersfield to stay up because I like their mini-Klopp manager. Edit: also that Sun 'interview' will be absolutely bollocks, well because The Sun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members SpursRiot2012 Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 What...what if Spurs go down and start our first season in our new stadium in the Championship. Like, a reverse Leicester fairytale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 Don't give me an erection at this hour, I'm tired and I want to go to sleep in a minute. Also, are we going to gloss over the fact that Liverpool have rejected a £90m bid for Coutinho? Ninety fucking million! Bet he goes for something silly like £120m. Barca have money and are desperate.

Doog Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Its mental when you think about it, I mean going into this season we've just come up so normally it'd be silly for me to say "I reckon we can finish top 10" - but the crazy thing is, outside th top 7 it's a free for all so we could end up finishing 10th and still being closer points wise To the relegation zone than 7th. You've literally got at least 11 teams next season that could finish anywhere between 10tj and 20th I reckon. Watford are done for me for the reasons PunkStep mentioned and I just don't think their signings are good enough, Will Hughes is alright but nothing special and Gray only scored 9 goals last season. Woule love Brighton to stay up as well as will always have a soft spot for Hughton, Huddersfield will be one of them that stay up this season and go down next I reckon. Still not confident Rafa stays and if he were to go there'd be hell on and we'd be done Cant wait for It to get going now - would like To think we'll give Spurs a game on Sunday but we'll see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with this, I'm looking at the teams in the league this year and finding it really difficult to predict who's going down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This Rose thing (confirmed as him, by the way) is the kind of thing to knacker morale in the squad, a squad that is wafer thin right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read tweets from journalists before the full story was published saying it's not as bad as it sounds. To me, he comes across as a bit of a prick. Yes, you want to win trophies and you want to be paid more, but don't get salty about fans getting on your back for having a bad season before Poch came in. The irony of the implication from a footballer that the fans are fickle and don't show loyalty. If you think you're not being paid enough or the club aren't matching your ambitions or whatever, go speak to the manager, go speak to the chairman. Don't specifically set up an exclusive interview with the Sun, of all papers, days before the season starts and piss everybody off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted August 9, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 9, 2017 I've had a soft spot for Rose since he felt the need to tell the whole world, unprompted, that his teammates cried tears of bitch behind closed doors after the battle of the Bridge. I like the timing of this as well. Good lad. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted August 10, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 10, 2017 Why would we waste our time chasing an unattainable left back when we're making such great progress with the Alex Sandro deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted August 10, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted August 10, 2017 How is he unattainable CVD? No one is off limits anymore. Also if Daniel Levy smells a few quid in sell on fees he will sell him. He sold Bale, Rose isn't as good as him, if he gets the right offer he will sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
