How many times in the past have we seen 'new' signings salvage a clubs destiny for a season...?
Horsefield at WBA 2 seasons ago?
Vinnie Jones and Glyn Hodges at ours early 90's?
John Stead at Blackburn 2/3 seasons ago?
Kevin Phillips at Sunderland?
Vincenzo Montella looks like he might drag Fulham out of the mire this year... and personally I think Steve Kabba could do the same down at Vicarage Road.
As a Blade, I'm sad to see him go.... ok he's a lazy arse who doesn't tackle back, but put the ball infront of him and he's a greyhound.
Watford look doomed, but until it's mathematically impossible to stay up there's always a chance.
Forget what's happening at the top of The Premiership... the relegation battle will be far more interesting in the run in.
Sheffield United
West Ham United
Wigan Athletic
Watford
Charlton Athletic
Middlesbrough ... are all contenders for the drop.
Manchester City and Newcastle United could still get dragged in....
you can discount the Boro....we're safe as houses....once we can learn to stop leaking 2 and 3 goals against lower league teams that is anyway....but i'd go with Wiag,Watford and Charlton for the drop
