OK so here we are in the dizzy heights of 4th place in the PL. Can we keep this momentum going over the next two months and have around 20 points by the beginning of December? Our next 6 games and my predictions Swansea (H) draw Man Utd (A) loss Fulham (H) win Stoke (A) win Hull (H) win Arsenal (A) loss I don't think think I'm being too optimistic with those predivctiosn so that would give us another 10 points giving us 21 in total. Surely enough to keep us around the top 6. What do you think?
An outsiders view fwiw - I would fancy your chances at OT as things are just now, so add 1-3 points there and take away 2 from the Stoke game. (about 9-11 points)
Swansea draw ManU loss Fulham win Stoke loss Hull draw Arsenal draw Another 6 points, but I feel I have gone for a pessimistic prediction. There may be another win there (Hull?)...so 6 or 8 realistically, but hopefully more.
I really only want to take this season one game at a time. Swansea will be a very different test than the three games we've played at home so far this season, but we really need to be aiming to win every home game. So three points on Sunday please lads. Alright, two games at a time. We'll never have a better chance to beat Man Utd at Old Trafford.
Swansea (H) Win Man Utd (A) Win Fulham (H) Win Stoke (A) Win Hull (H) Win Arsenal (A) Draw I'm going for 16 points! Top of the table here we come
Swansea (H) Win Man Utd (A) draw Fulham (H) win Stoke (A) draw Hull (H) win Arsenal (A) loss Another 11 points but I think we will be a different team come the arsenal game with injuries, form, tactics. Hopefully we can stay injury free, if we do I wouldn't be that surprised if we got a few more than 11. Equally a few key injuries and a dip in from and we might struggle to get 6.
Yes sure I made myself a smoothie containing cashew nuts, almonds, weetabix, banana and pear it was delicious!
Would still like to see us more clinical at home to get the wins everyone is predicting. Currently our away form is better. Swansea DRAW Man U WIN Fulham WIN Stoke WIN Hull DRAW Arsenal DRAW
We seem to do better against the sides who come out and play football. So we might well lose against Fulham and Stoke and win all the others. However that would be silly, as silly as beating Liverpool at Anfield, so I'll go: Swansea WIN Man U DRAW Fulham DRAW Stoke WIN Hull WIN Arsenal LOSE Another 11 points then.
If we maintain our defensive record, we should be able to get the odd goal against negative sides...so expect a few 1 nils to us. Our problem in the past was that we needed to get a few goals as we might let in the odd goal.
All I can say is now's a great time to be playing United at OT, I reckon we can get something there. I reckon our next two games are both draws, but we could well beat Swansea at home.
Agreed, when Man U look at their fixtures I reckon one of the last teams they'll want to see coming to their gaff will be us (at least those of them who know their football anyway). Even SAF last season said we were unlucky not to get anything out of the game. Do you know what though, I'm just so excited, and I just can't hide it.
