    The League form table is a bit of a concern now.

    Last 5 matches for Man United - 9 points.
    Last 5 matches for Chelsea - 8 points.
    Last 5 matches for us - 4 points.

    Our opening 5 matches we acquired 15 points. We then had a really difficult time and it another 12 games to accrued the next lot of 15 points.

    If we were to gain 4-7 points from our next available 15 I think we could be 4-7 points adrift of Top Four, with only 10 games at that point to fix it. That is definitely.....troublesome.

    Hopefully Home fixtures with Newcastle and Man City can invigorate the start of something. There are 8 days between the two matches which you'd hope might present a chance for a few lads to feel a little fresher at least.
    Totally agree. I said on Saturday we can really start to worry if Chelsea and United win. I had a feeling Utd were gonna get something from that game.
    We seriously need to get our shit together and start winning games because if this spluttering continues well find ourselves in a real dogfight for fourth and the way we are right now I wouldn't fancy us to win it.
    United may possibly do their usual and revert to type but there's also the real possibility they are turning a corner and will get some form together.
    Our league stats are terrible, even Everton have only lost one more game than we have. It's tight amongst that batch of teams and as we've found out this weekend it only takes a weekend or two of poor results and the picture looks very different and not a good one to look at.

    Last 3 homes games:

    scraped a win against Wolves, scraped a draw against Leeds, scraped a draw against Burnley

    I’ve not got confidence things will change against decent teams. I’ve not got confidence that Slot knows how to change things.

    Yeah. Do we really want to watch this again next season? Of course I'd love to see us get into the CL places but if it means we keep Slot then I'm not sure....I'm hoping FSG will give him till the summer and get Alonso like they did when Klopp became available....
