    How many more points needed for safety

    Think we may already have enough but would like at least another 6 to be able to breath more easily

    I honestly think we need to stop thinking about safety now. I wouldn't be surprised if the current bottom three don't get 30 points this season.

    We need to start thinking about challenging for top half, because that really signals our position to potential signings about our future and gives us more power in the transfer market + more money and bloody good times for first season back.

    If we finish 14th I'd be more than happy but providing likes of Rodrigo, Raphinha and Koch/Llorente can stay fit, the latter two when they're back we need to start showing our mettle in terms of challenging the better teams like we did today.

    I'd also like to start seeing the players we know aren't going to take us forward slowly fading out and giving some youngsters a bit more game time when it is suitable. Like i'd rather see Gelhardt/ Poveda come on than Helder Costa.

    But for now good times, I said this period would define our season and we've kicked it off with 6 points, I wanted minimum 15 so we look well on track for that and I didn't think we'd win tonight so thats a bonus!
