Spurs aside, all of those games between now and the end of the year are against teams that we should fancy our chances against.
We're now unbeaten in 6 Premier League games. That's good as something to build on, but it's now time to start picking up some wins. Looking at the upcoming fixtures this year, I think with us currently on 12 points, we need to go into the new year having hit the 30 point mark.
What do you think, do-able?
Well, we're 3 games into this run, and my own predictions were a win vs Wigan, a draw vs Swansea, and a defeat to Spurs, and that's what's happened so far.
My prediction from these 9 games was 20 points, which I think would be a very good return. Next comes the run of games where we MUST now start racking up the wins. I predicted a draw vs Stoke and the other 5 to be wins. I still think it's very do-able, so now let's see what we're made of...
5 wins and a draw from the next 6 will see us go into 2013 on 32 points. I think if we reach 30 it'll be satisfactory.
