Devil-Dick Willie Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Boyyyyyy do we have some candidates for teams who aren't reaching the bar they would have set. Tottenham have completely capitulated under uncertainty about the future of some star players and the manager. Potch could be sacked at any moment Everton have 2 wins, 4 defeats in a row and had aspirations of a 6th-7th place finish. Wolves in a similar position I'm sure plenty of people expected Manchester United to suck, and for Ole to get the sack, so I nearly didn't even include them but 11th with 2 wins from 7 is appalling. Who has performed least admirably?
LFCMadLad Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Yeah Spurs and Everton for me. Are Everton 4th from bottom now? I think both managers are under huge pressure currently.
Eco Posted October 5, 2019 Posted October 5, 2019 Manchester United, only because @Teso dos Bichos told me that they would be soooooo great.
Harry Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 Everton in the relegation zone probably wins it. Spurs in 8th would be next since I had expected them to compete with the top 2 after a good offseason.
SirBalon Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 Manchester United are in a dismal state but the truth is it's carrying on the same road we've all been witnessing. Tottenham Hotspur on the other hand were in the Champions League Final at the end of the last campaign and their general direction was one of improvement and aspirations of grandeur. Spurs are probably the most disappointing team in the the whole of Europe right now.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted October 6, 2019 Subscriber Posted October 6, 2019 Chelsea don't belong in that poll. The rest have been utterly shambolic.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted October 6, 2019 Subscriber Posted October 6, 2019 Tottenham and Everton. Tottenham have been absolute rubbish and are in a bit of relative crisis. Everton have just been awful, 17th and they've not even had that hard a start. Manchester Untied have been about as I expected - they've got a manager not even good enough for the Premier League and a really ordinary squad. Wolves and Watford have been surprisingly bad as well. Chelsea I think have been alright, they could've been a lot worse actually.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted October 6, 2019 Subscriber Posted October 6, 2019 7 points from Palace, Watford, Aston Villa, Wolves, Bournemouth, Sheffield United and Burnley. Nobody is shitter than the mighty Ev. Then again you should probably give Spurs this poll because it's the only thing Poch is likely to win this decade.
LFCMike Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 I wouldn't say Everton have been disappointing. It's fucking great
Fairy In Boots Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 In fairness to Wolves that Thursday/ Sunday routine fucks everyone. They need another half dozen quality players to cope

Spurs are probably the most disappointing team in the the whole of Europe right now. Let's not forget how woeful Spurs were at the end of last year too. They were in contention with the top two for a while and ultimately finished fourth with form that would have seen them in the bottom half of the table if it had been sustained through a season.
Administrator Stan Posted October 6, 2019 Administrator Posted October 6, 2019 Tottenham definitely. Wolves a close 2nd. I thought they'd be doing better even if they are playing in Europe too.
Scousermum Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 All of them. It's got to be Everton and Spurs.
Harry Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 Spurs still in the mix for top 4 though. Really there even currently ahead of Chelsea and United. They have been a disappointment but I'm starting to feel the bandwagon is forming and that normally means things are going to be taken out of proportion soon enough
Dr. Gonzo Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 It’s got to be Spurs. They went from a CL final to pulling their arsecheeks apart for Bayern and Brighton.
Smiley Culture Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 Tottenham - Yeah, disappointing. Chelsea - They’ve exceeded expectations, tbh. Watford - No real signings of note in the summer, I didn’t expect them to be as bad but it’s not a huge surprise. Wolves - Europa League always ruins teams somewhat, second season and late signings. I didn’t expect anything as good as last season. Everton - Awful Away from Home, as Silva’s record has always been in England, signed a teenager to lead their line and Marco Silva. Their home form hasn’t been awful, their away form seems to have regressed. Man United - About as expected.
Harry Posted October 6, 2019 Posted October 6, 2019 I think United have entered the conversation to rival Spurs after the Newcastle result. They have genuinely been worse than expected. Two points clear of relegation and 15 behind Liverpool....
Subscriber Dan+ Posted October 7, 2019 Subscriber Posted October 7, 2019 Think Wolves have saved themselves. Manchester United however I think may now have hit the point where they're a disappointment even by my incredibly low expectations of them.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted November 9, 2019 Subscriber Posted November 9, 2019 Think us and Spurs are still leading the way here.
Subscriber Dan+ Posted November 10, 2019 Subscriber Posted November 10, 2019 Tottenham. They've won three times all season. I had them as top 4 certs. Got that one terribly wrong.

The Artful Dodger Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 Manchester City? They've been pretty poor in most games I've seen them this year. Injuries or not, they look vulnerable every game.
6666 Posted November 11, 2019 Posted November 11, 2019 The answer is still Tottenham but we should definitely be one of the nominees. Chelsea unfortunately have been very good overall.
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted November 11, 2019 Subscriber Posted November 11, 2019 Spurs, I could easily say United but when have an arse like Woody Woodpecker and the Glazers there you have to admire any manager working under them arses but Spurs have really got me puzzled, runners up last year in the Champions League and a world-class striker in Kane and they are struggling in the league, when you look at the likes of United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, Leicester they are fighting on all fronts and ready to give it a go but Spurs seem to think that European success is more important.
