As we are having a bit of a dip in form at the moment - lets haave a look at where we should be picking up some points over the next 6 games Swansea Away - Tough fixture Gary Monk has galvanized them - I would be happy with a point. West Brom Home - We really need to win games like this - only 3 points will do Southampton Away - would like a point but I don't think we will get one Sunderland Home - another 6 pointer that we need 3 from Qpr Away - 6 pointer again - I would take a point though Liverpool - home - 1 point at best so - at best in my humble opinion the best we can do is 9 but I reckon we will pick up 6 mystic meg i ain't though!!
Could well win all those home games. A point away next weekend wouldn't be a bad result, both sides are suffering after good starts. Southampton away is looking like a write off at this point, they're looking Champions League contenders but the question is "how long will it last?". Sunderland, WBA, and QPR are must wins, if we cant beat them then we probably don't deserve to stay up. Liverpool is a wierd one, capable of tearing sides to shreds but if they don't turn up then they're very beatable.
Swansea nil pois West Brom 3 pois Southampton nil pois Sunderland 1 pois QPR 1 pois Liverpool nil pois
If Liverpool play like they did yesterday I think we will do very well, they have no Sturridge and they look nowhere near as threatening without him. Raheem Sterling was close to unplayable yesterday so he is a major threat. Balotelli looks a waste of time
We have scored 1 away goal. Clearly this needs to change in a hurry. Pretty confident of picking up at least 6 points from those home games, Liverpool being the unknown.
I will predict we get 9 points or more ... starting with a 'surprise' 3 away at Swansea this weekend ... we will compete in every game and whilst I was critical of the performance on Saturday we were actually getting on top when Newcastle broke away and scored ... we need to be brave and go for it away - a bit like we did last season ..
I'd hope for 6-9 to keep us clear of the bottom few teams, so to me, if we only got 6 points, i'd want it to be against QPR and Sunderland.
