I have been impressed with Watkins he looks a great player.
It must irritate them even more that Henderson has been getting splinters in his backside at Utd. Nobody has benefited from him going back, apart from his replacement I guess.

Yeah Dean Henderson made a big difference. Ramsdale is rubbish by comparison. He doesn't make many saves.

He's even better when he actually gets service! We're struggling to get the ball to him the last couple of games annoyingly!

Presumably because Grealish hasn't been playing?

No JG, Barkleys been off the boil, wingers arent all that.... A few reasons
I wont complain any more - were safe, in a good position and have make brilliant progress. Only 2 years ago I was going to Milwall away... context is key!

Villa in real danger of becoming a one man team with regards to grealish
Need to learn to win without him, hopefully tonight

Apparently Wilder insisted on Brewster over Watkins. Bizarre as Brewster is another Solanke. A shame as Wilder would bring Sheff Utd back up but ego obviously got in the way for both parties! Can't say they'll be missed though - appalling side.

How’s that not a pen for Burnley.
Stunning goal though.

After another hugely frustrating game last night I looked at the table and thought about how many other supporters of clubs felt the same. Who this year will be happy with their team?
I reckon City and West Hams fans only can feel truly satisfied.
Utd are 2nd but have been awful at times. Leicester 3rd but have lost a number of times against weak opposition. Chelsea are 4th but have sacked a manager. That doesn't happen if all is well.
Villa fans perhaps have a shout but they also have lost daft games.
Any suggestions for who should be genuinely happy with their season and why, apart from those two mentioned? It's the inconsistency this year that is driving me nuts.

I can think of 19 clubs that are very happy with Liverpools performances this season
Infact 71 plus the non leagues ?

Its odd you should mention this, once more I think it has been a good season, with the exception of one team that has bucked the trend. I said the same when Liverpool deservedly did the same. For me there was nothing worse than knowing the result before the game even kicked off, the only thing you didn’t know was the score.
Look at Chelsea v Leeds The other night, Chelsea have been on a right run, yet a draw v Leeds would be seen as a set back.
A Couple of years ago when City ran away with the league I watched some teams come to the etihad the following season and they were really well organised. They had a very good set up and City struggled to break them down. teams like Leicester and Palace did a job on City. Fans might not be happy with there teams performances but as neutrals they would be delighted with how others teams results have gone.
Me I have enjoyed the season as a neutral.
@Tashyboy , I'm not saying it's a bad season. For the neutral it must be great. Just as a fan of a team, who can be happy this year?

I would say that the deffos on the forum are Tash and Amanda, after that it could be a bit thin on the ground ?

I think Leeds fans would be pretty happy with their season but I take your point pretty much everyone else has underperformed

Not sure I agree with this. Up until Xmas it was a good season for the neutral but since then City have gone on their winning run and everyone else has dropped away. If you took City out of the equation then it would be a brilliant season for the neutral with a decent and close title race. As long as Man U or Liverpool didn't win it.

For traditionally mid table teams it’s business as usual.
Top teams very poor except City and Villa.
Down the bottom is the most exciting.
With the injuries we had we did well up to Xmas but have fallen off a cliff since.
So disappointing for me.

I had a look a couple of months ago re winners and runners up. There’s not many. Lose finishes to the title race, it seems to have become the norm that one team has won it with quite a few games to go. We have not seen many Aguerooooooooooooo ends to the season.
I did think about Leeds but they have lost a lot of games so I wavered. I think you are probably right though ?

First season up and they're pretty much safe from relegation with 10 games to go, I think they'll be pleased. Looking to build on that next season though.
Villa fans must be pretty happy as well. Gone from staying up by the skin of their teeth to top half at the moment. I don't think United or Leicester fans would be unhappy if they finish where they are now. And Fulham have the potential to be happy as I think they'll stay up at the expense of Newcastle, or maybe Brighton.
