Mixed feelings. They had to take a massive ? gamble to stay up, otherwise too weak.
And I respect their balls to go for it, albeit with mega-wealthy owner money. I liked they way they won promotion last season, and feel an affinity with them as a rural provincial team. But the PL is a different deal, and I think they have over-achieved so far this season with a weaker team than ours and a more predictable system. Even with the new signings, I think they will get turned over by the better teams when the final 1/3 of the season kicks in and teams are really motivated. For me, it'll be Villa, Bournemouth and Sunderland or Swansea to go down.
