On that I think Tudor has a bit of a problem to figure out with Kolo Muani, he clearly has quality we need, but he's not exactly the most engaged presser around.

Otherwise agree on the need for the pressing to be cohesive. Another challenge if Tudor wants that from us, getting that ingrained quickly.

Having Richy and/or Tel as WFs would help that situation

We won't go down this year or next year. But we'll be stick in midtable for a while if things don't change.

Is Gray actually that good on the ball, really? Hes not awful by any means but hes never really done anything impressive or out of the ordinary that you wouldn't really expect from any PL level player? Hes got potentially but people are speaking of him as if hes already there now and that I can't see or understand.

No he’s not the finished article. I don’t think he’ll live up to some of the hype.

Saying that can’t be any worse on the ball than our current CM options. My GHod they are poor on the ball. Bergvail is the best of them.

West Ham and Forest have tougher fixtures left than we do, that will save us.

We need probably 9-11 points.

We are unlikely to get anything at Liverpool or Chelsea as we get bummed there on our best days. Villa away will be difficult too. The remaining away games are Fulham, Sunderland and Wolves. Could see us getting points in those games - could also see us losing all 3.

For me, that means we have to win 3 or 4 from Palace, Forest, Leeds, Brighton and Everton at home. That's a 60% to 80% win rate in those games. In the last 28 home league games, our win rate has been slightly less than 15% (4 wins).

We are in deep, deep brick and all the performance indicators actually suggest we are going down. We're relying on the trend, that has been overwhelming for at least 12 months, not being a true representation of how good we are.

Some would call that optimism, some would call it delusion.
