Premier League: Relegation Race

[northfield wolf]

Is anyone concerned yet about our Premiership status ?Reading about our performances in the Birmingham Mail, one of our fans stated" Anyone who thinks we arent in relegation trouble is delusional". I hope hes being a bit premature, and that he is totally wrong, but......

As I said an another thread, if people seriously don't believe we will as a minimum win 3 and draw 3 out of 19 games then they should take the 50/1 that is available. We aren't in a relegation battle, it is conceivable but highly unlikely we will ever be this season and even more unlikely that if we are it'll end in relegation. A week ago people were saying if Fulham win both their games in hand it'll be down to 4 points...they lost both and haven't won in the league for nearly 2 months

No relegation concern for me

It's the Premier League I'm worried about

Point taken guys, but in 53 years of going to Molineux i have seen this happen before. I really hope im panicking unnecessarily, and in a couple of weeks you can laugh at me, but it is on my mind.

There are concerns from a small minority I imagine because we sit 14th, and our form isn't great (well, very poor) However, we are still 10 points clear of the bottom 3, and I don't see Albion or Fulham stringing a run of results together to catch us anytime soon. The only way we get dragged in is if we only win 1 or 2 more games all season. No worries here

No concern for me right now, although I will say there's quite a bit of football left to play.

Leaking goals and not scoring many either is certainly a concerning recipe, and we shouldn't be too complacent as we're as close to 17th as we are to 10th.

I don't think this poor run of points will continue however, as we have greater quality than most of the teams below us, especially with Jose signing. Just need to get our mentality right.

We still have double the points of WBA and I also can't see Fulham having the sort of run needed to catch up with us, regardless of what we do. I think Newcastle should be more concerned than us tbh

 

[AndyWolves]

When the games we have played is bigger than the points we have is when I'll start to get concerned

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

We are in no danger whatsoever.

 

[Wolvensam]

No worries from me.

 

[Kenny]

We are in no danger whatsoever.

Fuck!

Playing 46 League games next Season...

Personally, I think we are bottom of the form table for all clubs in the Premier League, over the last ten or so games. Quite clearly everyone acknowledges that it can’t continue much longer or we genuinely will get dragged in to an unnecessary battle. We certainly can’t perform like we did last night in any of the remaining games, so I’ve no idea how Nuno is going to go about correcting this current run, but I hope he stumbles across a way.

To give balance, I do think with Podence, Jonny & Jose in the side we should have enough to get the three wins & couple of draws required to stay up. Then we go again next season - hopefully with a clearer plan, a fit squad, some large investment/improvement in the first team squad & fans back in the ground.

Arsenal were in 14th not so long ago. Not worried here about relegation. We might be around where we are now at the end, we might be higher.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Sheffield United are below us in a ten game form table but not a lot else is!

I think the arrival of Willian Jose will spark something. Talked with a Chelsea fan at work today this morning and he reckoned the game will just be a competition for who is the least shit.

Agree with most of this, although not sure we'll invest 'large' amounts, depends what you mean by large I suppose. Think its clear we need an upgrade in CM and look like we also need a CB, have to admit up till 5 or 6 games ago thought we were ok for personnel at the back but its looking not so atm....maybe I'm being harsh and its just a short term form thing.

 

[BillyDee]

Zero concern.

 

[darlowolf64]

Nope, not concerned

 

[Tredman]

If we hadn’t signed a striker, yes. Now, remains to be seen, but unlikely.

Sheff Utd have taken 4 points in their last 10. Us, Brighton, Fulham, Newcastle and West Brom have all taken 8. So despite our awful form, we are no closer to the bottom 3 than we were in November

Yeah, just shows how poor or form is when you see those other clubs mentioned!
