    Back to reality

    its great we got 3 wins, but we were always going to be in a relegation fight. Next week is a right off but we got Southampton, Palace and Burnley after that. We are not down yet

    I think we will pick up enough points to hover around mid table - between 7th and 15th hopefuly
    keeping out of danger and just steadily improving as a team and individually

    Liverpool are great going forward but poor at the back. Long trip to Moscow as well. If we get at them I think we can get something. I'm surprised Liverpool and Manure are playing in Moscow Tuesday and Wednesday. Yes its massive but they'll all be looking for Irish pubs!

    I think we can win against any team. We're not going to obviously but against Liverpool I'll be on my toes to see what Rafa and the players come up with. We might lose. We might just surprise them. No NUFC game's outcome is easily predicted this season IMO

    Huddersfield, Brighton, Swansea - all tight and 1-0. If we keep the performance levels up we should be ok.

    I'm inclined to agree with you on the above Hughie.

    Aye.

    This, we will certainly lose lots of games this season however we also have it in our locker to win games we're "not supposed to".

    It might actually suit us next week that we can defend and counter.

    It needs to be looked at over the period of a season. We could beat any team on our day and we could also lose to any team on the day.
