Yes, it's the same when you look at Southampton, Brighton, Villa

and increasingly Newcastle. I can't help but feel Everton have the quality to get out of the mess they're in too.

Which really only leaves the promoted sides plus Burnley.

If Brentford get a couple of wins from their next 5 games (Palace, Arsenal, Newcastle, NCFC, Burnley), we might be too far behind. Particularly if we're one of their wins.

Anyway, good that we're a tougher side to play against, I can forgive the players for a lack of quality when the endeavour and energy is there.
