    Do you mean we "could" have scored 3 or "should" have scored 3 ?

    But what's the point of bringing in a new manager if we aren't going to beat Watford at home?
    I don't think anyone expected anything at Arsenal but we should have been targeting 3-6points v Watford and Stoke. IF and it's only IF at this point we end up with 1 point from Bob's first 3 games, then that will be very worrying with the next 3-4 games after that.

    Vorm made some superb saves against Liverpool tonight. Looked back to his best with those saves. Another who has left us to cash in and waste their footballing talent away.

    So we should be worried? Lets sack him then yeah? If we cant beat Watford right? If we only draw against Stoke lets get a Warnock style cretin in charge?

    Not sure where the facepalm emoticon is so just doing it the old fashioned way....

    Where did I mention sacking him? But if we do pick up 1 point from Stoke and Watford, with Utd, Spurs, Palace and Everton coming up, we should be worried <doh>

    We will turn things around within the next three games and begin our climb ....regardless of who we play .
    The team is tightening up and all players will play a part .
    Fab is fabulous .
    Naughton is beginning to show he owns his position .
    Kingsley is about to turn into the next Ben Davies IMO.
    Our CBs are about to start a nice healthy fight for minutes and all of them are good enough to fight for them .
    Barrow is going to be a big plus as his minutes increase dramatically .
    Ki will get back to good form after no preseason and only two starts before the Watford game .
    Cork will shine soon .
    Siggy will be Siggy as the team tightens .
    Britton and Fer will play there very important parts as required .
    LLorente and Baston will improve as the rest of the team gives more support .
    Which brings me to Montero .. I don't know whats up but it is time for him to start games .
    In our best point total season Montero had an assist every 6.5 goals and we need those crosses .
    I truly think the team would come good around this time and still believe it .
    We DO have a good team , and I believe they are fed up with the top end problems and will take things into there own hands , regardless of who the manager in charge at this point .
    But from what I've seen out of Bradley , were in as good hands as any .

    Lawro says:

    "Stoke made a bad start to the season but have now gone four games unbeaten and look like the team I always thought they were.

    With Swansea, I still don't know what to expect under Bob Bradley. He picked up his first Premier League point against Watford last weekend but now he needs his first win, and I don't see it coming against the Potters.

    Lawro's prediction: 2-0"
