who's getting relegated

Sunderland
Bournemouth
Hull

for those that say Burnley they defended very well yesterday and they are organised, think they will have a few big scalps

Agree with this,don't know why people are saying Swansea either, I think they'll be fine once they sack Guidolin.
 
Although its early you'd have to go Hull as the 2 wins mask complete disarray at the club - Palace who have resumed their woeful normal service from last season and Swansea - the constant closed season changing has caught them up and left them with a largely bare cupboard for the season ahead.
 
I've completely changed my mind since the morning of the opening day. Hull are already 1/6th of the way to what was safety last season so I think they could scrape through. Think people have Bournemouth all figured out by now. Not seen enough from Palace to suggest they'll stay up and if not for a good start they'd have been certain to go down last year. Sunderland are also contenders, while Stuani, Negredo and Ramirez should see Middlesbrough safely through. Burnley still don't have me convinced- I've learned never to judge someone on a performance against Liverpool who are so inconsistent and 18% possession wouldn't have been enough on most days. Swansea have lost their leader. Watford could scrape through under Mazzarri and look good so far. West Brom are the ones I most want to go down (of the likely contenders), mainly because I can't stand Pulis and his awful brand of football.

Based on the season so far, I'm going with:

18. Bournemouth
19. Crystal Palace
20. Burnley

Guidolin has them looking very good at the end of last season vs West Ham and Liverpool. Gave us a tough final day too.
 
Hull, Burnley and Bournemouth

Potentially Palace but I think they will sack Pardew to survive - Watford and Swansea have potential to go down but I think the 3 I mentioned have worse teams/squads
 
7 or 8 genuine contenders..Hell the bottom half could all be in it..Some awful teams in there if they dont improve before the window shuts.But Bournemouth look the worst,cant create/score cant defend either..Rock bottom for sure.

And a complete mess for the other 16 games he managed last season and the two this. He's got potentially a top 10 squad but nobody thinks they'll finish higher than 15th , what does that tell you?
 
My bottom three:

18. Hull
19. Burnley
20. Sunderland

I struggled with 18th and 19th as I can't see two teams in the world who are worse than Sundireland at the moment let alone the Premier League. I can't tell you just how clueless we were at doing the simplest thing yesterday against the Smoggies. It was like watching a really bad pub team. We couldn't hold on to, control or pass the ball. We did the very thing we should not have done in that situation. We could not get anywhere near to hitting the goal post our shooting was that atrocious. Defending was some of the weakest I have seen. Shrewsbury Town must fancy their chances in the EFL Cup. I can see even them giving us a hiding. I can see us going down on a record low points and actually registering less wins than we did under Mick McCarthy. If the team is this bad now imagine how bad they will be later on.
