https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/jan/03/premier-league-fans-half-term-reports-part-one-arsenal-to-leicester Leeds Our target is staying up, and look: our promoted peers Fulham <https://www.theguardian.com/football/fulham> and West Brom are in the relegation places, and we’ve already won as many games as Norwich managed all last season.
