Currently anyone 20th-11th looks like they could be in for a relegation battle. A few teams have enough quality to steer themselves out of it and the rest will scrap it out. Any side that can put out 2/3 wins in a row suddenly opens a gap. Got to make the most of 2 home games over the next 2 saturdays

Beat either Burnley or Watford and we're halfway to safety at about the halfway point. I'd have taken that in August!
However we simply must start to take more chances in the way we play, especially at home, we simply have to try to attack more when playing lower half opposition. 14 goals in 17 games is very worrying and relegation statistics.

This. And no goals from open play in five games too. Very worrying.

There is one aspect of our play that I find disappointing and actually surprising, I was sure we would be a far bigger threat at set pieces than we are proving to be. Duffy and Dunk are a genuine handful, the fact neither is on the score sheet yet is strange.

According to the bookies there's four teams more likely to go down - Swansea, Huddersfield, WBA & Palace. Top price on us to go down is 11-4 - roughly 1 in 4 chance. In mid-December in a 20-team league, when we're newly promoted and can spend in January, it could be much, much worse at this point. The message from the betting market is positive, not negative. Why twist it?

I'd be tempted to add Southampton to that list.
They seem in free fall. They are not even close to selling out their ground tells me the natives aren't happy.

This plus Southampton & Bournemouth.
You honestly believe there are 6 teams worse than us.

Spoke to a Palace fan in the office yesterday who went, and he said exactly the same. They were bloody awful apparently.
That’s the problem, you said it never going to beat Man Utd or Liverpool. Some of the teams below us and just above us have got a result against the Top 6. Last night both West Ham and West Brom got what I would call a good result. That’s why will go down, because we just can’t hold the bigger teams to even just a draw.
