Robbie Savage claims state of relegation dogfight is already 'quite clear' despite only a QUARTER of the season being played after Burnley's woes continued with heavy defeat Manchester City

Robbie Savage believes the Premier League's relegation spots for this season are already close to being decided after watching Manchester City swipe aside Burnley.

Riyad Mahrez netted a superb hat-trick at the Etihad as City struck five past their opponents for the fourth time in a row at the ground - leaving them teetering precariously one point above the drop zone.

And BT Sport pundit says Burnley's limp display has forced them into the dogfight alongside the current bottom three teams, despite just a quarter of the campaign having been played.
