markjazzbassist Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 I want to move on from the Man city match. QPR won today, goals by Leroy Fer (guess that knee isn't a bother after all) and Charlie Austin. Austin was sent off so luckily we don't have to see the 3rd highest goal scorer in the prem. All our regulars should be rested up from the week off of Europa so I'm really hoping to see a very strong side and win. We need 3 points and it's always good to beat ole 'arry.

Guest rusty747 Posted December 7, 2014 Report Share Posted December 7, 2014 This has become a must win game. Unfortunately, not to chase the top six but, instead, to put more of a gap between ourselves and a relegation dogfight. We have some very tricky games after QPR and could easily get sucked into the botom four or five if we lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deacs Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I just hope he picks a balanced side and stops trying to play players out of position just so he can play them. Pick in form players in their best positions. Don't play someone because of their name or reputation. Romey 1878 and Bailey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rusty747 Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 It's tempting to say we are too good to get relegated but I am sure that's what Leeds Utd, Manchester United, Chelsea, West Ham, Spurs etc all thought before they got relegated. Realistically, I think the worst we will finish is lower mid table and I still wouldn't totally rule out going on a run to threaten the top six. But top four? No way I am afraid.

Realistically, I could envision Everton bobbing around middle earth all the way through this campaign. But I hold out hope for a win each weekend, which is probably better than more a few teams in the PL can say. In American Football, we call it a "rebuilding year." Euphemism for "We're too old and tired (or young and inexperienced) to play effectively. But don't cash in your season tickets, because next year will be different, I'm sure of it!"

For us, this really is a year of transition. For Arsenal and Liverpool, for example, they are really struggling after supposedly being through years of transition. We're in a lot better shape than they are - despite what the table many currently imply. Welcome, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And id like to see us try it again more often at home against lower teams, because we don't play with wingers more LF and RF and the centre striker plays as a false 9 which eto could do brilliantly and naismith does a good job.

QPR will win easily, They've not taken a point away from home all season and they have their main source of goals banned. Sounds just like the sort of game we'll lose, but not easily. Odd goal probably. No irony font needed. Romey 1878 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
