West Ham will be tough, they will be on a high after those 2 wins, a draw at best for me. Then best chance of 3 pts against the geordies, they are very restless up there and if we can get an early goal we’ll win. Then Wolves at home again will be tough. I’m going for 4 pts overall. There’ll be a loss in there somewhere!

What are you on? We didn’t play Fulham last season, of the remaining five games, three were same result pointswise, two one point worse. So we are two points down, not exactly panic stations.

We played West Brom whose place Fulham took and beat them so we are 4 points worse off.

Apart from Watford we’ve picked up points, a tough start to the campaign wouldn’t you agree?

All a bit arbitrary to say team x replaced team y directly.

Much better to say we gained 11 points against the relegated 3 teams, which we need to match in 6 games vs Wolves, Fulham and Cardiff.

Nobody is disputing the hard start but losing can easily become a habit in the same way that winning can so we need to get ourselves on to the winning road.

West Ham and Wolves are in good runs of form at the moment. Newcastle is an away game. I don't have high hopes.

West Ham are improving so I'm less confident about a good result Friday. We won't beat Newcastle because, let's face it, we don't win away and Wolves could be tricky.

1 or 3 points.

I will be disappointed if we do not beat West Ham and Wolves and at least get a draw at Newcastle. As I posted on another thread the papers reckon it is down to our defence not keeping clean sheets, none so far this season which is down to CH new adventurous attacking policy.

I must have missed that...

And I think itd be asking a lot to get at least 7points from those 3. West ham and wolves are firing. Tough, tough games those two. I'd be happy with 4 or 5 from the next 3, and some more attacking intent shown from the get go.

1 point. Can't see us getting anything from West Ham or Newcastle away. Draw with Wolves would be decent though on current form.

Didn't realise Newcastle don't have a home point yet. You can be sure that will change in a few weeks!

At this moment we are looking relegation fodder to other teams who know all they have to do is score. three tough games where we just have to be on the front foot and not 10-yards off them allowing them free access to attack. CH lets get in their faces and pressure them and not allow free rein
