Its not been great but you don’t have to make up stats to prove your argument. I think he's been misconstrued here. Of course we've beaten teams above us, we were bottom, we're now not, but I think what he means we've not beat a team currently above us in over a year. In a calendar year we've beaten: (2022 - Last season) Burnley (Championship) Leeds (Currently 14th) Brentford (Currently 10th - Above us)* Palace (Currently 11th - Above us)* Norwich (Championship) Watford (Championship) Southampton (Currently 20th) (2022 - This season) Forest (Currently 18th) Leeds (Currently 14th) Wolves (Currently 19th) Everton (Currently 16th) West Ham (Currently 17th) So there are *2 teams in that list who are currently above us and goes against what he is saying (Or how i've took his point) but regardless of him 'making stats up' or being misunderstood, even the most ardent and positive supporter can't deny that makes quite shocking reading. I mean it took us until March to get our first win of 2022 and regardless of whether teams are above us or below us surely we've gotta be aspiring to more than 12 wins in 12 months.

Facecloth Posted 2 January 2023 Share Posted 2 January 2023 Chelsea are apparently signing another CB. I could have sympathy for Potter before as he's not had a transfer window, but surely CB isn't an area he needs to desperately strengthen. I get the players he has there aren't his, but they are adequate for now. They simply don't score enough. They don't have a top class striker and their wingers are mostly average. Kante seems finished too. There's lots of areas that need work before they spend more on defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I thought it was quite obvious what I meant regarding last season, we beat nobody who came above us in 2022 either. Give or take from it it points to a clear problem particularly with our upcoming games being pretty tricky. We've really got to rectify that in games like Fulham and Brighton. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
