I'm a West Ham supporter, and I think the same. All our signings this year are old, past-it guys with a name. See also many of their signings in recent years.

The only surprise is Arnautovic somehow being our #1 striker these days.

We can stay up, but it'll take some amazing performances.

I thought Zabaleta and Hernandez would do well, but they've been decidedly average. Which is still better than most of the rest of the team I guess

Top, top teams have been able to get away with not using two strikers because they can afford strikers that can score plenty of goals without needing another centre forward to carry any dips in form.

The same is not true of teams further down the table. If owners like West Ham's aren't willing to spend to get actually good strikers in, then such teams need to start accepting formations like 4-4-2 and 5-3-2 and stop trying to match the fancy dans with their 4-3-3s and 4-2-3-1s.

I think WBA are definitely gone. Maybe with West Ham and, as much as I like them, Huddersfield (their run in is terrible)

They should be ok. 4 points clear and chances are, all of their fixtures are against teams with nothing to play for, other than Huddersfield. Assuming they're not in the mix by the last couple of fixtures, they'll be safe.

Classic one two punch of a missed penalty then conceding.

Starting to think that Stoke and Southampton are so bad we might no need any more points.

Us neutrals are supporting the underdogs Man Utd in that match. I'm getting fed up of the same teams winning the league every year. We need a moral champion in this league, and only Jose can claim that title this season.

Back to Clement form of getting 0-1 shots on target per game. Just got to hope Southampton, Stoke and West Brom want to go down more.

The answer is, mate, because I want to do you slowly. There has to be a bit of sport in this for all of us. In the psychological battle stakes, we are stripped down and ready to go. I want to see those ashen-faced performances; I want more of them. I want to be encouraged. I want to see you squirm.

Vertonghen's should have been a red for sure.

Lamela is just a oval office, much like Alli. They're the kind of players who should be shown a yellow card in the pre-match handshakes just to keep them in line.
