The problems are simple to identify .....
* 29 points in 32 games is on pace to get you relegated and the manager to get sacked.
* 48 goals allowed in 24 games is on a pace to get you relegated. See Hudds and Fulham last year, Hull and Sunderland in 2017, Aston Villa in 2016, QPR in 2015.
I am typically pretty upbeat, but these stats, over the longer period, worry me. As well as match after match of soul-crushing mediocrity (with the occasional brilliance) going back to November 3, 2018.
Panic?? Not yet, check back with me at the end of September, with Everton (H), Southampton (A) and West Ham (H), plus the League Cup game to come.
Unfortunately, the problems are simple but the solutions are beyond my ken (and most of us, I imagine).
