West Ham United 25/26 relegation thread

[muskie]

Odds slashed from 5/1 to 7/2.

Watch this space.

I think we're fucked.

[onsideman]

That's one of the worst halves I've seen from any team this season

[Sir Alf]

An injury to one or more from Todibo, Mavro, Fernandes, Bowen or Summerville and we are probably cooked anyway. No cover for them in our squad

[pdcwhu]

Cop on lads long way to go

[Sir Alf]

As sad, destined to go down it seems. “Our turn” in the words of Terrence Brown.  

Leeds pace and sharpness, attacking at every opportunity has really changed their season. Hats off to Farke but its fvcked us over. 8 points to Palace and Spurs, they are the only teams that currently look dodgy. 8’points is really 9. Its too many points to make up imo.

Everton aint getting back into this and Moyes low block tactics always best suited to away games.  

[Massive Attack]

We’re fucking cursed.

Having said that, going 10 games without a win does make life very difficult for yourself.

That's the crux of it. Our own fault for being in the position we are in. Horrific form.

[Eerie Decent]

We're just destined to go down.

Not attacking that Fulham game at home was our death knell. We can blame luck all we want, but if you don't try and win home games like that, you deserve to go down.

[Sir Alf]

Everton tactics unable to deal with the Leeds wing backs. Classic Moyes side has no pace. Leeds quicker all over the park.

[Tomshardware]

Everton have been . 

[Sir Alf]

Deserved for Leeds.

No teams gonna do us a favour. Just feels like nothing going our way this season. 

[onsideman]

That's been coming

[onsideman]

Everton have been absolute gash for the first 20 minutes. Lucky to still be level

[Massive Attack]

I'm thinking it'll be a draw.

[Westham67]

I think we will get something at Chelsea

[happygilmore]

I don't see us getting anything at Chelsea.
The fixtures the week after:

Leeds v Forest

Burnley v West Ham

[Tomshardware]

If Leeds win tonight it will look grim, or grimmer. We need a favour from the ginger one.

Leeds are the ones we are most realistically going to catch up with. I think Forest have enough quality players to stay clear.

So yes, a Leeds win tonight would make things look very gloomy, even after our 2 wins .

Surely Everton pick up at least a point?

Would expect Everton to win tonight but you never know.  I think Forest will pull away, they have bid for Mateta so are only going the get stronger.   We just have to keep winning and hope that one or 2 teams keep losing.

Spurs could part company with Frank by the end of February, City at Home, Man U away, Newcastle Home, The Gunners Away. If they get tanked at the Emirates, that will be him gone

Palace coming down with decorations.
Hopefully they will join the bottom feeders.

They are reminding me of Moyes's last season...
players are thick as mince..but not that thick.
When you KNOW the gaffer has downed tools it's only heading one way.
I can't see us catching them , but it's certainly not impossible...
(Note. : to myself ..don't go down the rabbit hole).

They will sack Glasner if they keep losing.

Yeah, they'll have no choice but to. They probably should have done it already, the moment the discontent boiled over. Chances are they'll have enough to stay up with what they got before it went tits but we could be right on their tail in about three weeks. i don;t see them getting anything off Forest (who's fixtures will see them pull clear) or Brighton, and then if they fail to beat either Burnley or Wolves (coming between their Europe play off tie), you don't see where many other points are coming from at all- maybe Leeds or Everton but the rest of their fixtures look quite tough. Crucially we still have a crack at them so if we are close and beat them, that could be huge.

It would help us for sure THIS WEEK  , but far from grim if Leeds Utd get a result there.
It's all about what WE do from here.
You'll drive yourself insane if you go down the rabbit hole of other clubs and stats and all that noise .

We sort ourselves out.. and what will be will be

Yea yea I keep seeing this theory being banded around of late and to an extent can see the point, if we keep winning then we stay up, yes, but if you want to be realistic about the situation we are going to be fucked if the teams above us keep winning, you are going to have to end up getting north of 40 points.
