The importance of the next 5 fixtures (how many points will we be behind)

[MadchesterCity]

There’s a very high likelihood we will be in 5th position before Liverpool home game.
Brace ourselves for a media barrage and one hell of a fight this season.

suspect we’ll have 24 points before dippers match
Brighton Home
United away

What a load of nonsense!

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Surely you know by now not to look at the fixtures and base it on that. No-one would have predicted Wolves to beat us. More often than not, we drop points against the lesser teams and turn up against the top ones.

So the op thinks we're going into relegation levels of performance.

I suspect our season will start properly after this break and we'll go on a bit of a run.

Beware of the wounded City.

 

[meeesh]

I'd suspect we will have 30 points before we play Liverpool if I'm being honest.

As a matter of interest who are you thinking were we wont get any points from those next 4 games then ?

This could raise a smile from me on this gloomy Monday morning at least.

Dont worry about it we were absolutely fucking abysmal until about February last season and that didn't work out too badly did it?

 

[Bald fraud]

Fucking pathetic thread!

Woe is me!

All the evidence is that we can cope without one of Rodri or KdB but without both we've looked pedestrian and clueless, so once Rodri's back our performances will improve significantly, as was seen in Leipzig. We just have to hope he doesn't get injured before KdB returns.
