Only five more league games until we face the Rags away, I'd like us to be at least 6 points clear of them by then.
So looking at the fixtures what do you think? I think there must be a defeat coming soon or maybe a couple of draws here goes.
Us
Arsenal (H). Draw
Leicester (A). Draw
Huddersfield (A). Win
Southampton (H). Win
West Ham (H). Win
I'm going for 11 points.
Rags.
Chelsea (A). Lose
Newcastle (H). Win
Brighton (H). Win
Watford (A). Win
Arsenal (A). Draw
I'm going for 10 points.
I think you'd have to be a real pessimist to expect us to draw both Arsenal and Leicester.
Personally I think a big game will rejuvenate our performances, the team seems to be mentally drained when it comes to trying to unlock defences.
Arsenal have really flattered to deceive as well, winning badly against poor opposition.
Id be really disappointed if we didn't beat them. It's not impossible but we are a far, far better side.
Leicester might be tricky because of the International break and the new manager.
