[Albion] Premier League 16-23/01

[Motogull]

Leeds, Newcastle, Wolves and CP dragged a bit further in.

That's a heartwarming thought, especially the last club mentioned there but, with deep regret I can't see them bricking it for quite a while. We need a couple of teams below us to go on a bit of a win frenzy and I'm not sure I want that even if we do as well. CP with 19 loses from here would be tremendous of course.

Manure, CP and Villa with 100% LLLLL’s would be my fantasy rest of the season.

In reality, I’d take SheffU, WBA and Fulham with losses galore.

All in all a very good weekend for us.

Back on track with a win, everyone else losing other than Fat Sam’s rugby team. Who effectively, because of our GD, need 2 more wins than us to overhaul us. Sheff Utd in deep poo.

Leeds, Newcastle, Wolves and CP dragged a bit further in.

Fulham’s star youngster gets a three game ban for violent conduct.

Sadly their star youngster (Lookman) is only out for one game. It’s their bang average young full back (Robinson) who is banned for three games.

Fortunately that one game is against us.(unless the FA Cup game counts)

West Ham v West Brom tomorrow at 6pm as the games come thick and fast.

Hopefully West Brom get back to losing ways.

It is against Man Utd on Wednesday night.

They play Man Utd in the league before us unfortunately.

Afraid not.

Newcastle now play at Villa on Saturday and at home to Leeds on Tuesday before we play Fulham. If they take a point or less, we'll be looking to win our first home game of the season in order to go above them.

True, and yet they'll still be wanting us to win

How on earth are Newcastle above us? I don't see them that often, but when I do, they're absolutely pony. Have they turned in barnstorming performances in games that I haven't seen or something? They look much worse than Fulham or West Brom too. I don't understand how they got their points

Think Robinsons been really good this season - thats harsh. Glad he’s out.

Odd isn't it?

They were dog shite most of last season. They seem to get the good fortune that seemed to desert us for much of the past year. The stats seem to suggest that they should be 18th or 19th currently.

They played alright in their 4 EPL wins, Wilson’s played well imho. Saint-Maximin is a huge loss, like Lamptey, he stretches the opposition. But when they’re bad, they’re very bad.

Whilst we’ve had a nice looking passing game, but haven’t put chances and teams away. Until now, hopefully.

Tonight's result puts Arsenal in the top half. This means that, at our half way point, we have a record against the top half of:

Played 10, Won 0, Drawn 2 , Lost 8, For 10, Against 22;

And against the bottom half:

Played 9, Won 3, Drawn 6, Lost 0, For 13, Against 8.

Fifteen of our nineteen games have either been draws or won or lost by a single goal.

Wilson had been scoring winners for them.

They are the opposite to us.

Awful defensive percentage football in the hope their star striker gets a chance and scores. As soon as they try to chase a game, they are all over the place defensively. Wilson has got Newcastle 14 points with his goals, that’s a brilliant return for him. But when he stops taking the chances, gets injured or they stop creating the chances for him, there is only one direction they are headed. Championship football.

Whoever got elected as God in the last election must be supporting Newcastle

Villa and Newcastle WERE in the top half when we beat them...

Villa probably will be again. They have four games in hand on Arsenal.

C'morrrrn you Irons.
