Who are you now going for relegation?
Well,
not much has changed. Although I did do this before yesterday.
So
it's beyond Norwich
Watford,
Newcastle
who you're sending you cosplay. Newcastle Down, based on
I thought they get beat by Munch not evil. I'm 19 games to go.
Will they be enough wins in 19 games to keep them in
the league? I still think it's going to be tight with back
a really, really excited Wilson. And that Wilson.
And I know we've got the January window but
they're up against these still, so I'm gonna stay with it. I'm
going to say Newcastle as of now. You've got Burnley
surviving. I think Daniel. Sorry, know how I think, know
how style of play games in hand.
I think they'll be great. So you're going to Watford
Newcastle Norwich will be Marcel. I don't think they're
going to be okay. And that's my one change. The start of season
at Southampton, being relegated, along with knowledge
and Watford. I'm going to stick with those two picks, but I'm
going to switch out Southampton,
done some good work, some good transfer window, work Rogers,
looks really, really good. Burnley, the last holds own
team in the league. The last old-school, grinder way through
others try and play
Maybe to their detriment but I think this is it for Burnley.
I think there's not enough goals in the side, cornet has come in
and done. Well, is injured right now? Chris Wood's got two
or three. I just think that old-school mentality. And
philosophy
is going to struggle to get the goal to send alleles school.
Well,
so you've got what four going down. How many managerial
changes will happen between now and then is this waffles?
Watford, have one more. Go.
Don't go for the top for now. You get a chance to tell us who
you're going with. In May May 22nd. Look at me their top five
just the top four. Okay. So top four is the
same. As I said at the start of the season,
the main contentious point maybe is Manchester United.
I do think they're going to make the top four after what we've
seen. And we know that Spurs are on a charge. Now,
we know that our testers job as brilliant, an Arsenal and there
on the spot right now. I just don't feel
there's longevity in Our Salon that position and A still like
today, I still think they're figuring it out and, and United
got so many good players. I know as a tough watch
yesterday, but I think the manager given time, we'll find
a way to produce a team that does
finish for. So, what's the order
United and
then Chelsea, then Liverpool, then Manchester City. So that's
a big change for me. That's a big change that we chose for
Chelsea. Yeah. Okay. Be going with City. Alright, you started
the season with City to win the league and now your top four
looks like what
as you were City.
Liverpool Chelsea
Manchester United. Do you
think United their seven points away from that top, for, as
things stand today? It's a lot but
to improve to play most of those teams to get better under
ragging and knowing that changes are coming structure
outside the football club. I still think we've actually
there's enough to understand it day one that that will be
the top for now. I'm pretty much happy
to Steven. Gets them top for. Yeah. Does he get the job? Do
you think no you shouldn't do it? Stopped for is what he's
been brought in to do their needs to be consoled and then
get somebody in to build this football club in the manner
that needs to be.
Built whether we got fourth or not. I don't think that should
be overriding factor in getting the job. Okay.
So as we look ahead to the second half of the Season, what
is the storyline that you are most interested in keeping your
eye on Robbie? A storyline that has to be the backing and more.
So after yesterday's
game at st. James's Park when you see, 50,000 fans, get
behind the team and you Castle plays the all, it's in
Newcastle United. So what's going to happen?
We're all saying
wealthy ownership, Eddie housing. Charge, you know,
January window where they can spend some money, and bringing
in some quality, talked about Wilson and set maximum with
injuries what that looks like. Just on your Castle, been going
to be good enough or they going to be the richest team ever in
the world in the championship.
Wow, interesting.
And I'm kind of repeating a little bit. I think the
the biggest stories Manchester United and given their second
place finish last season, and given spending a lot of money
on three big time players,
that would be expected to improve the team
moment. They happen.
So that's the story for me. Rather ironic.
Very opinionated very well respected. Can he come into
a big, big club, which he hasn't managed before, and make
the changes necessary for them to finish in a spot where? If they
don't finish in the top four, that was kind
of Unthinkable. Absolutely Unthinkable. The start of
the season, so that for me is going to be the story that everybody
including us are going to take a really close look out. And to
be fair. They have a couple of games and hand them, a couple
games and handling Arsenal who's sitting out in fourth.
