Points by end of October
Just looking at our next 8 games, ending with Bournemouth on 28th October.
With almost a new team (which isn't even finalised yet) and the time taken to gel against some tough teams I think the table could look pretty grim by then.
I could see us with 9 points, which seemed poor at first, but would actually be a decent points per game return.
Like most, I can see us getting better results from November onwards and it could be an enjoyable ride - but it might be a little sticky before then!

Re: Points by end of October
So difficult to dare suggest where wins might come from in this league, but here goes:
Villa - 3
Spurs - 0
Forest - 3
Man Utd - 1
Newcastle - 0
Chelsea - 0
Brentford - 0
Bournemouth - 1
8 points there. I’d take it I think going into some slightly kinder fixtures in November and December.

I think threads like this are a bit daft. Games don’t always pan out how you would imagine. There’ll be some surprises in that list of fixtures.

It's a bit of fun.
What would you call 254 pages and nearly 13,000 posts of people arguing with each other over possible incomings and outgoings and getting every single one wrong!

We just need to get the first win early as possible, huge psychological boost once that’s out the way.

Posters are underestimating ourselves and overestimating established teams.
This season will be totally different to our last PL journey.

Re: Points by end of October
I think it will take some time before VK will know
and be able to field his best 11 so I'm not expecting too much from
our first 8/9 games.
Maintaining our belief alongside Improvement in our performances
and getting a few goals will be key for me.
So I'd be surprised and relatively happy if we manage to get more
than 5 o 6 points from our first 9 games with a not too disastrous goal difference.
Not unlike last season when it took 5 or 6 games for us to gel and start
putting a few wins together.
Except that it's likely to be tougher in the Premiership especially
with the number of new players we'll have.

Re: Points by end of October
Well, doesn't time fly when you are having fun.
Leaving out the Luton game, which was not included at the time of posting - the results are in!
Not even the most pessimistic amongst us thought we would have the grand total of 1 point from those games.
If I have checked correctly, we have a 3 way win between Brexit, Corporal Jones and Corky who all predicted 3 points.
If anyone fancies another go, the next 10 ending with Aston Villa away could bring us 8 points in my view.

Re: Points by end of October
I think we all know that if we continue to play as we have done in the first 10, we'll likely pick up another 3-4 points in the next 10. And that's probably being optimistic as the confidence by then will be lower than ever.
I'll give it a go though based on the HOPE that Kompany will finally learn something and set the team up properly, starting on Saturday with a big reaction to our recent pathetic displays.
Palace 3
Arsenal 0
West Ham 1
Sheff Utd 3
Wolves 1
Brighton 0
Everton 1
Fulham 1
Liverpool 0
Villa 0
So there we'd have another 10 points, taking us to 14 overall after 20 games.

I can’t see us getting any points from any games if we carry on playing the way we are.
Re: Points by end of October
Based on what I’ve seen to date I’ll say 4 from the next ten and at a stretch 5.

Re: Points by end of October
Not going to predict but there are 4 or 5 of them games that we could quite easily win, but with the way we are playing at the minute it would not surprise me if we lost all of them. I am confident at some point we will start to get results though and play better just hope it happens before it is too late.
Re: Points by end of October
Unless we have a radical shift in how we are performing, then we’ll get no points.
