All of our next opponents are better than Norwich and will give us more problems defensively. Have we suddenly solved our striker problem sufficiently enough to gamble on outscoring the majority of our opposition?


I don't know when we last went 14 games with only 2 defeats but I bet it was a good few years ago. It's also been a long time since we last won 2 league games on the bounce.

I'm going to go for a maximum of 16 points, with every confidence that I'll be closest to the mark.

In addition, from our first 19 games of last season we won 9 games - and that was under Dalglish (who I know you weren't exactly a fan of) - so why you claim 6 wins from 14 is "unrealistic", I'm not quite sure.

I see no compelling reason why we can't take 28 points from these games, that gives us 33 with the 2nd half to come. Suppose we sign a. Top striker and a top defender or even a keeper we can potentially better that in the 2nd half, so chin up lads 70 points is not impossible and depending on how the others do we could be knocking on the CL door yet....ok I'm wearing my optimistic hat again , but why not? We are looking better and better every game now and our young'uns arre sooooo exiting!

I see us having between 30-36 points at the end of 2012 with the second half of the season to come. That, IMO, would have us between 5th and 8th which would be realistic. Top 4 at that stage would be Chelsea, Manure, Man City and Arsenal, whilst the others in a similar position to us would be Spurs, Toffees, and Newcastle (5th - 8th).
With the way we are currently playing, I believe we are turning the corner and think this would be a realistic figure to achieve.
