davieG Posted 10 March 2023 Share Posted 10 March 2023 Conflict has always been the main recipe of effective storytelling. It's the necessary tool that draws the audience's attention through the hero's myriad struggles, and by the end, it's because of conflict that we see an ending worthy of our time. William Faulkner once said that the only thing worth writing about is the human heart in conflict within itself. In football, the only thing worth playing for is the conflict between winning and losing. In the Premier League, arguably the most entertaining league in the world, there are naturally other things at stake, but it seems to me that too many headlines this season are focused on the title race between Arsenal and Manchester City, or the adorned Champions League spots and the battle for them. Don't get me wrong: there's nothing wrong with this spotlight. It is important to celebrate the chase of perfection, because, in the end, victory is the ultimate elixir and, right now, the trophy hunt and European chase are tasty affairs. But what if I told you there was an even more dramatic story happening slightly lower down the table? A story of conflict that's so tense, unpredictable and nerve-wracking with not just two or three protagonists, but almost half the league? We're talking about a full Shakespearean ensemble full of desperate, anxious clubs doing everything in their power to climb out of this well. Welcome to this season's relegation battle, which is currently as dramatic as it is unpredictable. This is the best soap opera you're not watching, and if you're a neutral, there's nothing to do but sit back and enjoy. If you're a supporter, then you have my absolute commiserations. As a lifelong Aston Villa fan, I remember those battles too well -- it's not like they are too far in memory -- and they are agonizing. It's probably the best way to lose weight, to be honest. So believe me, supporters of these clubs I am about to mention, I deeply empathize. Everyone else? Sit back, relax and let me walk you through this season's Premier League survival race, the most anticipated, unpredictable telenovela of the season. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/english-premier-league/story/4896790/why-premier-league-relegation-battle-is-must-see-tv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our great escape was greatly helped by playing mid table teams with nothing to play for. Looking at our isn't pretty at all. Newcastle, Liverpool and Fulham chasing Europe. West Ham, Leeds, Wolves could all be in the scrap. Not good. Edited 10 March 2023 by Sol thewall Bamba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
