The Premier League 2022/23

[Sausage Roll]

If you want straws of positivity to clutch at though.....

Every time we've been relegated from the Premier League we've finished bottom. This season we cannot finish bottom.

The final day likely standings still scare me.
Everton home to Bournemouth is a nailed on 3 points I reckon
Leeds home to an on the beach Tottenham is the unknown but again can see a Leeds win.

Assuming a realistic defeat to Arsenal we may well need a win at Palace.

For what its worth I dont see Leicester overtaking us.

I don't think Bournemouth at home is a hard game but not sure why everyone is just giving the game to Everton. They're not exactly a team that wins a lot and Dyche football is good at not keep games close rather than actually winning games. I think it'll be a close one.

Spurs may or may not be on the beach but as long as Kane is playing they're going to be dangerous. Plus they're still in a battle for Europe, I think that is a pretty tough final fixture actually. 

If Leicester do lose tonight it feels like the real critical game is that West Ham v Leeds game, really tough to predict. Sadly on the back of that Europa League game, Leeds will certainly work harder than them. That game feels like it could go anyway but if Leeds lose that it really feels like we're almost there (and who knows if we scrape a point on Sat that may be it).

Argh this is excruciating!

But if West Ham make the Conference League final they'll be playing for their places. 

So many variables!

Horrible isn't it. As is the week waiting between each game!? 

Annoyingly I'd really like to see both Leeds and Everton go down for whatever reason. For that to happen, a Leicester win would be great tonight but that would make it much more stressful for us again! 

Leeds are rubbish at the moment, I really hope they get stuffed by Wet Spam. And as you say, with a Leicester loss tonight and we get at least a point against Arse then we'd be safe going into the last day......that would be bloody lovely!! Or....we beat Arse, Everton and Leeds lose their next games and we can watch with complete joy!

Yeah whilst simultaneously managing fitness related issues. Its annoying its the away leg too! Absolute worst case scenario on Thursday is extra time and penalties otherwise we get a Brighton vs us type situation. A crushing 3-0 win where they just chill out for the final half hour seems the best outcome. Never thought I'd care so much about the Europa Conference League. 

It's a shame they are basically safe, likely mathematically safe by then unless the results go really badly!

I think after tonight, it's worth trying to take a step back for a few days and recharge as next weekend is going to be gruelling.

Whilst it'd be amazing to be safe before the final game, if we go into that knowing a win is enough we'd have taken that a while ago. Particularly if it's either a win, Leeds don't win or Everton don't win. Lots of outs then!

Calvert-Lewin went off with a tight groin apparently. Not clear yet if he'll be back for either of their remaining matches.

If not they could be in real trouble, even with the easier-looking matches they have left. They're pretty toothless without him.

He's why I'd like Everton to take the drop, if we stay up he'd be top of my list.

His injury record isn't great...

He’s scored two goals in 16 appearances this season

I’d rather have Chris Wood. 

If we are targeting players like DCL in the Summer then it’ll be another season fighting relegation

Tottenham are still playing for Europe and although it won’t be Champions League you can bet Levy will want them to qualify

DCL is a very decent player who would enhance our side.... when fit.
