Would you take 2 wins and 5 losses? + Pardew's summer spending?

    I would never just accept a defeat before a game, let alone 5 out of 7 games. I accept when we get beat by a top side but I never enter a game thinking a defeat will be ok, imagine if the players had that mentality. I would want us to target a win in every game, except when playing a top side in top form, away from home. If we are at home and/or the side we are playing is not in the top 5/6 I want to target a win every time, a draw sometimes being a good result depending on the situation (Arsenal/Wigan comebacks, draw v Bolton because we had 10 men).

    I go into every game hoping for a win. I wouldnt accept 6 points from our remaining 7 games.

    I would rather just play the remaining 7 at risk of getting 0 points. Whos to say we dont pull off a fantastic giant killing result against Man United?! Im not saying it will ever happen but you basically write off your hope of it happening by saying "Yeah id settle for 6 points"

  3. Please refer me to the point in this article where i said we shouldn't target a win from every game?

    We've shown we can get points from any team now, all i'm asking is would you accept 6 points from our next 7 games.

    I think we could get draws from Villa and Blackpool which is what i said, but my honest prediction would be 2 wins and 5 losses, i never said i expect us to only get 6 points, i just predicted each game and that's what i think will happen.

    I never expect anything.
