The TARGET is 32 points, you'd hope.

It was exactly this type of crab that made so
many vote leave. What’s wrong with good old British plaice? [emoji35]
With regards to points I reckon we’ll end up on 19. Draw v Wolves/Cardiff beat Palace/Everton. Roll over and have our bellies tickled by Burnley, Leicester and Huddersfield.

Surely we can get at least a point at Huddersfield - in 9 games they've only scored 4 times, and let in 18...
So long as we can be on a perch above relegation?
Wolves (h) - 1
Everton (a) - 1
Cardiff (a) - 3
Leicester (h) - 1
Huddersfield (a) - 3
Palace (h) - 1
Burnley (a) - 1
11 for me too, although different combination. 22 Points by then would be delightful!

You'd hope so but we've had zero luck up there in recent years. I won't be getting my hopes up.
32.
Anything less and we may be out of the CL places race.
In which case CH should seriously consider his position and do the honourable thing.

I'd say nowhere near 40 the way the season has panned out ... so far! My feeling is we need to get 34 points max, so are already 32.4% of the way there with only 23.7% of games played ... happy days!
As lovely as that would be, an unbeaten run of NINE matches is the stuff of fantasy in this league, for all but the very top sides.
No - I meant that the target after the period the OP stated. (11 points now, plus a maximum of 21 from the next 7)
Yes, spotted that just after posting, tis' a tad ambitious!

Palace had an unbeaten run of 8 games last season.
We need a diver.

Not seen such Bravery!
6 more points this half of the season is the minimum needed to give us a fighting chance of staying up.
Point proven.
Achievable for the likes of City, Chelsea, Liverpool or the mighty Palace.
Not for the likes of us.

Yep. Our longest last season were 2 x 5 games unbeaten in Oct/Nov, and again in Feb/Mar.
If we win on Saturday - its our first ever run of 3 winning games in Prem.

Worth also reflecting that after these first 16 games, we'd have played nine away, and only seven at home. If we get to 20, we'll be in an extremely strong position with 12 further home games.

As a couple of others have said, the opposition is also important. Even though 11 would be great, if it was 9 points with three wins v Huddersfield, Cardiff and Palace, I'd certainly take that.
