The sad reality has been obvious all season. We are the worst team in the division. Two different head coaches have had a go, and the result remains the same.
The only victories we have achieved have been against teams in shocking form, often at points where the team/manager relationship had entirely broken down, and even then we were often a bit lucky to get the win. We were a bit lucky at Brentford - they played really badly, and even then we weathered a hell of a storm at the end. Against Southampton their keeper threw both our goals in. Everton and Watford were both in a shocking state when we played them.
Having failed to beat Brentford, I'm struggling to see a team coming up that is in enough of a state for us to beat them. Maybe Leeds, although they actually played quite well at times against Leicester.
Chelsea are going to give us a brutal beating on Thursday. Our only hope is that they take pity on us/save their legs for future games, and stop playing after the third goes in.
