Talk Sport this morning believes

[W12hoops]

Us, norwich and swansea are all in a relegation scrap along with blackburn, wigan, bolton (forget the other 2) but said 8 teams in all.

Me i disagree, in january we will strengthen and with the way we have come out playing against some of the teams so far i don't think we'll be in there at all (well at least i hope not).

Apart from Norwich and Swansea our manager have plenty of cash to spend in January. We'll see what they say after that.

Wow! TalkSport have really gone out on a limb naming 8 out of 20 sides as being in the mix for relegation.....

They certainly know their stuff. Might even provoke a reaction if they're lucky.

Is the correct answer!

[hhrangers]

Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Man United. They are the big 5.

We have failed to beat Wigan, Blackburn & Bolton who are all meant to be sides who are struggling. That's what I'm more concerned about. Not that we beat Chelsea, we can expect to beat the rest of the big teams. The teams we need I beat we quite simply haven't.

I would now class Spurs in that rather than Liverpool looking at the last few years, although pool spent quite a bit last summer so should be back up there.
So going by that we have played two.

Hmm.. have I missed something??

Norwich are ahead of us by 1 point and Swansea are level with us. They've both played 2 of the big 5 where we have only played 1.

At this stage we are in a relegation battle.

It's all well and good saying we will strengthen in January but we have to remain in touch with the other teams

When did the 'big 4' expand to the 'big 5'...???

They've been knocking about behind each other's backs for ages the dirty trollops and of course the inevitable happened; out popped no 5 just last week.
Mind you I seen it coming a mile away what with their carry on, and not just between themselves; anyone was fair game as far as I could see.
But anyway it won't be happening again for a while, the ringleader is up on charges so I hear.I'll keep you posted if owt else pops up...
