I was just thinking this, say they were to lose Cairney and Sessegnon for a month, would they still be pushing hard for an auto spot? They would drop off a bit I think. We lost Grealish and Albert which took the wind out of our sails a bit as we were flying, also we have missed Grealish for the first half of this season, we really have had bad luck injury wise this year.

They lost cairney early season and won 4 in 17 - since then they’ve been in hot form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairney missed a huge chunk of the season with injury. They did well in January. Finally got a striker to play in their system and a left back that released Sessengon of his defensive duties.

So goes to show luck of injuries plays a part Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we can stay ahead of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not realised that, I guess his return has coincided with their excellent run of form. Losing Sessegnon would be a big blow for them right now though, I was surprised nobody from the Premier League came in for him in January, they have done well to keep him. I guess he will end up in a top 6 team eventually, so he maybe had offers from lower down but is biding his time for the right offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True although they’ve played derby ,villa , wolves and Bristol city in that time all of whom are in the top 6 . ‘We have the top clubs to play at home but they have now played nearly all the top clubs - certainly Fulham for me will finish 3rd at worse and either way i think they are going up , either in 2nd or play offs . i just hope we are not in the play offs with them - 2nd place is needed . looks like derby have blown up again as usual .
