Im one for saying that BR needs time to get the squad where he wants it and it is obvious that this will take a few seasons, but he at least needs to maintain a respectable position in the table in the mean time. Liverpool really do need to get some results in December (maybe 2 wins in a row? asking too much?). We are up against some very average teams. Fixtures: December 1 Dec, 15:00 Liverpool1 - 0Southampton Premier League 6 Dec, 18:00 Udinese v Liverpool Europa League 9 Dec, 16:00 West Ham United v Liverpool Premier League 15 Dec, 15:00 Liverpool v Aston Villa Premier League 22 Dec, 17:30 Liverpool v Fulham Premier League 26 Dec, 19:45 Stoke City v Liverpool Premier League 30 Dec, 16:00 Queens Park Rangers v Liverpool Premier League http://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/football/liverpool/results/2012-2013/ Im expecting: (W = Liverpool v Southampton) L = Udinese v Liverpool L = West Ham United v Liverpool W = Liverpool v Aston Villa W = Liverpool v Fulham D = Stoke City v Liverpool D = Queens Park Rangers v Liverpool (tough one to call between a win and draw. Old 'arry will probably have them back on track by the end of December) BPL Games: 6 Win: 3 Draw: 2 Loss: 2 Points: 11 Realistic expectations I feel. What are everyone else's views on the December fixtures? Last edited by marksj2; 01/12/12 10:57 PM.

Have you watched us this season?2 trips to London and Stoke will be hard,only the villa&Fulham games looks like some points.

One thing BR definitely achieved is to drop fans expectations significantly, that can only play in his favour. Last year I would have said at least 15 pts, this year I would say happy if we get 12.

Kane, if you look at the predictions you'll see that they are factored in... im slightly missing your point mate. But overall, they are still extremely average teams! in form we should be walking over them, not thinking we might be able to walk away with some points. Vish, nailed it.

Based on how the season has gone, and our team, and our lack of goals, 10 points would be good let alone 12.
