I'm sure we have this discussion about Palace every season when they hit a bad run of form. They'll be nowhere near relegation as the bottom 3 this season are so poor. Currently none of them are on track to even reach 25 points.

I live in hope of them going down until it's mathematically impossible for them to do so, just as I do with the scum. It's not like there's anything to get excited about in SE7.
If ever there was a means of determining where Man United are as a team, then one only has to look at who they have beaten and lost to (utilising Everton's position without the 10 point deduction):
Arsenal (2nd) Lost 3-1 Man City (4th) Lost 3-0 Tottenham (5th) Lost 2-0 Newcastle (7th) Lost 1-0 Brighton (8th) Lost 3-1 Everton (10th) Won 3-0 Chelsea (11th) Won 2-1 Brentford (12th) Won 2-1 Bournemouth (14th) Lost 3-0 Fulham (15th) Won 1-0 Palace (16th) Lost 1-0 Nott'm F (17th) Won 3-2 Luton (18th) Won 1-0 Burnley (19th) Won 2-1 Sheff United (20th) Won 1-0
So United have lost all five matches against a top 8 side, eight of their nine wins have been by just a single goal but five of their seven defeats have been by more than one goals and they've only scored 18 in their 16 matches. Not bad for a club with the second highest net spend (over £400m) over the course of the last three seasons. Their embarrassment is only tempered by the even more woeful performances of the biggest net spenders, Chelsea.
Well yesterday's 3-0 home defeat to Bournemouth won't have helped - table above edited to reflect this and the Chelsea result.
I suspect that Bayern Munich's 5-1 thrashing by Eintracht Frankfurt won't have helped either - they Germans might have chosen to rest most of their side for this week's clash in the CL but could be less inclined to do so given yesterday's result.
his arrogant bunch of strolling millionaires (including him) is losing to a bunch of paupers assembled from the lower leagues, just how fucking dare they referee ? !!!
Fulham beating the Hammers 3-0 after 40 minutes. This follows their 5-0 midweek thrashing of Forest. What the hell is going on down at the Cottage?
Make that 4-0
Fulham 5 Nottingham Forest 0 & Fulham 5 West Ham 0 in the space of four days. Fulham scored just 10 goals in their first 12 matches but have found the net 16 times in their last 4 games.

What a great day in the PL, Man U stuffed at home, Palace lose and now Arsenal and Arteta lose.
Man City (a)
Brighton (h)
Chelsea (a)
Brentford (h)
Arsenal (a)
No easy games there. Hopefully, their winless run can be extended by these 5 games and maybe beyond.
Would be brilliant.
