Looks like it will be very tight at the bottom and shows why survival over a few years means you can splash so much more cash. If reports are believed Swansea offered 120000 a week to Nicolas Gaitan.
All those clubs mentioned changed managers who have managed to get the teams organised again and it’s no surprise to see any of them picking up points. I personally thought Swansea would struggle with their managerial appointment but he’s got a bounce out of them. The 3 promoted sides that went up look at most trouble at this time to be fair. I do think one of us will escape the drop but no idea which. Huddersfield looked terrible tonight and Newcastle at this time still looking for signings. Tomorrow could be a big day both on and off the pitch.

There was a poll a few weeks ago asking if we would drop back into the bottom three, this season. I voted yes, but we'll stay up. I'm still on target.

Yeah watched it. I thought they kept the clackery chant going most of the match. Maybe we should get some in?.......
Personally I think we are not quite strong enough. It’s not just about the players. It’s more of a mental attitude at this time of the season. Bottom 3 for us

Hudd's shocking performance reminiscent of Brighton's this season versus ManC, Hudd, Spuds, WBA and Leicester. Outclassed.

If Swansea can, then we can, they were bottom of the league, we are a good side, all that has been missing is taking some of those chances, maybe we will put some of them away now.
You need a bit of luck, Swansea had that tonight with the goalie error and met Arsenal on one of their (quite a few) fragile away games.

It's funny how two Swansea wins in succession suddenly seems to have so many people effectively concluding they're safe. They can still lose form just as quickly as they've found it.

Yes.
But I dont know if you are watching the game but we were not as bad and outclassed as Huddersfield are tonight. They just have not bothered at all, at least we try while being outclassed.
Too much of a "happy to be here" pragmatic mentality, need more players like Schelotto against Chelsea who didn't give a damn and gave it a good go. I like our signings and think that had we got them in August we'd be okay, but it could end up being too little too late should we not get a few results in the upcoming weeks

Genuinely had no idea Saints were doing so badly until Sky just showed the live table.

Several posters pinning all our hopes on Southampton away tomorrow evening, lose and the end is near.
It's only January.
Southampton winning will not determine our fate.

Liverpool and Arsenal is some two games to find form. It also takes them on to 6 wins. Confidence and two wins in a row.
Tends to be my current thinking. So hope we are wrong, but.....
Just watching the Liverpool manager chatting to the club captain, covering their mouths. Why? I recon Kloppy was saying 'That Dave Wanker thinks I'm his best mate, but I think he's a ***t'.

Points must be harvested soon, April and May look a little daunting apart from the apparently inevitable FA Cup Final.
