It's quite telling that we couldn't beat Spurs, Watford and United despite how dire they've been.

I'd take Wan Bissaka when he's fit and still think Pogba is a top player.Originally Posted by Bumble
next 4 should be interesting
Sheff Utd (a) northern = tricky
Palace (h) doing well won away at United and West Ham
Wolves (h) just beat City away
Leicester (a) beat Spurs, unlucky to lose to Liverpool/United
9 points would be quite a good total against that lot.
i agree none of those are remotely a done deal considering our playing with Xhaka etc.
one thing i will say, after the international break we need to see Holding and Tierney starting for the first team, also Willock - no ifs no buts, they're ready and Emery should play them.
Honestly, I could see us dropping points in 3 of those games, Sheff Utd away, Wolves home and Leicester away. Palace home should be a win but....I can't even call that one clearly.
Even though we have only lost 1 game this season the team still doesn't convince me, especially away from home. I think we could scrape a win at Sheffield, but I wouldn't be surprised if we drew or lost. Palace home as said above should be a win. Wolves at home we should win...but they are a decent team...so a draw wouldn't be a surprise. Leicester away, best we can hope for is a draw, I personally think we will lose up there.
The only games that I would be surprised to get any result is against Liverpool we seem to have lost before even we start.
We'd be lucky if we got another 9 points by the end of the year
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
Sheff Utd are nothing special, but if we don't turn up they'll probably outwork us and may scuff a goal, so it's no gimme.
Palace at home we should win IMO, again though Palace are dangerous away from home but I'd expect 3 points.
Wolves again being at home you'd expect us to win, but they are well capable of getting a draw against us or even beat us as they have some quality.
Leicester away, I reckon we'll lose though, Rogers is doing a decent job with them and away from home against decent teams we struggle, our only hope is our strikers getting us out of jail with a goal of nowhere in this one IMO.
Leicester are often a bit tricky at their ground if my memory serves. Soyuncu looks pretty good too...and if it weren't for the David Brent persona I'd actually not mind Rogers managing us.
