They are by far the best of the 3 promoted sides and even though the appointment was stupid they'd be stupid to move on him now.
They're certainly a better side that we were when Cooper got us up. And they've got premier league infrastructure around them, which we didn't, so you cant really look at them and judge them as a green-as-anything newly promoted side.
When it appeared they were relying on 37yo Vardy to score the the goals and there was the talk of the points deduction, like everyone else I assumed that that it was going to be nigh on impossible for them to stay up but Vardy seems to be up to it and they've dodged the points now, so I think they can be comfortable.
Having watched them on Friday, I'm now thinking they're not as good as I assumed they were. That defence of theirs is well dodgy. They looked very much like a newly promoted team trying to hold it together.
But, if we're assuming that Ipswich and Soton are almost certain to go down, then they're going to be fighting over one relegation slot. So they can easily stay up.
Yes id agree with that. They are shocking in defence.
They've proven they can dig out results though so I think a lot relies on how wolves and palace do in the coming weeks.
