Where are we likely to get points before the end of January? Watford - manager who has orchestrated 4 straight wins against us 0 pts? Spurs on fire and want revenge for 2 points lost in the 1st game 0 pts? Newcastle a vague possibility of something 1 pt? Liverpool gulp!! 0 pts? Arsenal gulp!! 0 pts? 14 points by end of January plus cup exit against Wolves. Come on all those who predicted an away win at Liverpool, where do we do better than that?

I feel positive about the management change but... on 11:00 - Dec 30 with 1167 views
Yes, tricky isn't it ... but we need to start somewhere.
A solid, up beat performance today could deliver a point (3 if we can keep them out).
Spurs will probably be without 'arry and we need to defend like demons and press the likes of Son / Alli ... give them no time and wind them up ... another point would be fantastic.
The Newcastle game is just a lottery; they are as bad as us and entirely possible that we can get a win up there.
Liverpool will be a true test of how far CC will have come since the 5-0 trouncing (much of it self-induced by very poor defending); anything below a 2 goal defeat would be a result.
Arsenal don't like playing us when we sit deep and hit them on the counter; CC needs to watch all the previous games where we have beaten them. Even the Clucas goal this season.
If we haven't reached the 20 points mark by end of this set of games then a very difficult task will have probably become an impossible one. But if we have reached 20 points or more then we only have 3 of the top 6 to play in the remaining 13 games of the season, which would mean us needing 4 wins and 4 draws to get 36 pts (might be enough this season given the number of teams below 20 points at the moment).
