[/quote] 4 points  I fcking hope your wrong, koptalk wont be a nice place if we only pick up 4 points. we are brutal at the best of times even to one another. We can be nice again when we win the league again. Back to topic - The acid test of our true credentials is when we play Chelsea, Citeh and Spurs (all away) over the last 15 days of December.

At the end of the day, a Top 4 team goes and wins at least 2 of those games and comes away with maybe a draw in the other. A top 4 team rarely loses to teams at the lower half of the table. 3 points from southampton is worth exactly as much as 3 points from man united, we need to play and work just as hard to beat these teams as we do the top teams. Common sense. +1 I agree with you completely, we need to get some consistency in our results this season. Last season we wasted quite a lot of points against teams we out played, if we can get that consistency we'll defiantly be up there come the end of the season.

Another 3 wins would be absolutely massive because during that time Citeh play United and Chelsea go to Spurs.
To be, as we are at the moment 5 points ahead of Man U is big but to be 8 ahead of them or possibly 5 ahead of 2 or 3 rivals would be equally huge.
I have already said on here in other threads that the period in November/December when we have those tough away games is crucial. Last year we got draws at Chelsea, Man City and Arsenal and got beat at Spurs. We also have our away local derby in that period.
We enjoy what we hold for now and it could go wrong any time but it could also get so much better.

But are we really going to win 6 league games on the bounce? When was the last time we (or another premier league team) did that? I can't imagine it happens often, it'd be bloody nice though!

Just wanted to point out Chelsea only took 4 points from the same fixtures last year and finished 3rd.
5 points wouldnt be that bad, i'd be happy with 6, anything more and I will be delighted

If we are more hungry and ruthless in the second halve, then i'd say we can get max points on these fixtures.

The old saying take each game as it comes is very true. Forget the three wins concentrate on the Swansea game.
We are due a result there and the new players should boost us.
Here's hoping
