The Friday Show this week has a long conversation about an already opening up relegation picture. Bournemouth/Brighton and Crystal Palace/Southampton both open the weekend and will be all desperate to get some points on the board.
Steve Armstrong joins to discuss Manchester United and Jordan Jarrett Bryan talks Arsenal. Paddy Boyland is in to chat about Everton. Neil Atkinson, Adam Smith and Mo Stewart all playing for the home team.
Not sure who said it but regarding it being easier for Liverpool to gain 7 points on Man United than Bournemouth gaining the same 7 points on Huddersfield or Burnley, I couldn’t disagree more.
In recent years, how many times have we seen a team that looks dead and buried suddenly string 3-4 wins together and move out of the drop zone, at least one team every year performs this Lazarus act.
Whereas how many times have we seen major movement within the top 4/6 teams, especially the league leaders? With few exceptions the top 4 positions are usually nailed on once we reach the halfway point of the season, unless Arsenal make a late run.
