    I'm not going to predict the outcome of these games as it's likely we'll have a massive change to the team, and i can't predict what will happen first game of the season at SJP.

    However -

    Arsenal (H)
    Twats (A)
    Fulham (H)
    QPR (A)
    Aston Villa (A)

    What number of points would you be happy with after these 5 games?

    It's impossible to say wether we'll be much better or worse than last season, but i reckon we're making the right signings and i hope to see some improvement over last year.

    I'd be very happy with 7 points from these opening 5 games. What about you?

    I'm making no predictions remember, i'm just saying what i'm aiming for and i'd be happy with.

    Might I suggest the following:

    Arsenal (H) - 0 You're rebuilding, they're not
    Top NE team (A) - 1 both rebuilding, turgid 1-1, or crazy 5-5
    Fulham (H) - 3 Gotta go for this one
    QPR (A) - 1 Tricky, as they'll have that newly promoted fervour
    Aston Villa (A) - 3 Villa in turmoil

    So it's 8 from moi...

    Do you think Villa have/will have a better squad than us?

    Depends if they keep their star players. If they have a front line of Young, Bent and Downing, then i'd say we'd lose most likely.

    7/8 points I think would be a realistic target but knowing us it could just as likely be 3 points as 10

    I'd accept this, with open arms, think it's reasonable
    Reasonable to expect a draw in the derby -- in all honesty I think it's the most probable outcome
