Is Glasner the problem?

This is all entirely true. However, I had a look at our fixture list for the season.
If I were generous/optimistic we'd get about 19-24 more points this season. I got it looking pretty realistic at 21 more points - clearly that's only 37 for the season - although I do suspect that would keep us up.
Putting us to lose against teams like Forest and Bournemouth and draw against teams like Everton - which seems realistic enough - I could only work out us getting a similar number of points we already have. Which would give us something like 32-35 points - which may not be good enough.
We already need a win or two against sides that we won't be fancied against.
Frankly, crucial that we beat Southampton.

Southampton might have their new manager in the dugout for his opening game.

Should we lose against Bournemouth and fail to beat Southampton, the 'Alarm bells' will be ringing loud and clear and of course the position of the manager will be prominent on the discussions on HOL !

I do also think the "mid table" teams who had a flying start to the season will struggle the second half. And that's when we will catch ground and work our way back up to 12th 😅

We do seem to have injuries at the start of the season and for the run in they are all fit. Strange that...almost as if they don't have a proper pre season.
