Don't worry Everton fans, Steve Bruce will shortly be available to "save" you

Yeah, they missed out on Mark Hughes who seems to have resurfaced at West Brom?

Hughes was an odd choice for Bradford for sure.

With the baggies next 2 games being Huddersfield and Fulham, Bruce may well be at 7 defeats from 8 shortly...

The relegation dogfight is resolving itself.

Norwich, Watford plus one of, Burnley, Everton, Leeds. I think bigleggy said earlier Everton's home form might save them.

I think you're right OS. On balance, probably Burnley - I think Everton will scrape themselves safe this year, but could well collapse next season (for me, there are huge echos of the Villa sliding to relegation over a few seasons)

Wasn't me OS, can't see where the next win is coming from. I think Roberto is far more optimistic than me.

Last night felt like we announced our relegation.

Leeds have that "dead men walking" look to me.
One of those teams who are too good to go down. But go down.....

Lampard may well be the issue; he can’t be ideal as a manager for a relegation scrap. Word from Chelsea was he was a poor man manager, and always thinks some smart arse tactical ruse from his genius self to fix things. The ask is all about fight and team spirit.

Dyche will have Burnley scrapping, possible new manager bounce for Leeds?

I'm optimistic. We look an entirely different team at home. I expected to lose last night and while heavier than I expected, it hasn't changed much in terms of where we are.

We have lots of games against those around us (newcastle and brentford at home, Burnley and Watford away). They are pivotal.

Norwich, Watford and possibly brentford for me to go down.

Ah, the beautiful game, remember that? Let's put down some jumpers and have a socially-distanced kickabout. Long shots only, and no hugging and kissing.
