It isn't usually. Just the way I'm feeling right now.

West Brom, Wigan and Spurs are VERY big games.

I'm going for 7 points from our December fixtures.

If we beat the shit on Wednesday, I'll say we'll get 10 or 11 points. We lost it could be more like 7 or 8. Morale and confidence will shape the next few weeks of our season.

My heart says 10-12 my head says 4-6, I think we will beat WBA get a draw against Wigan away and lose the rest , but I am in a negative place at the moment but 1 result can change all of that and I very much agree wtith Toronto Villa - Wed is huge game to take into December (either way)

5 wins, Houllier to get Manager of the Month award, and we will get around 12 goals.  I think we have hit rock bottom, it's all uphill from here.

Interesting that everyone thinks Albion is 3 points given how they can play away and our totally disregard of tactics

I think 6 points

I'm a big believer in momentum and confidence in football - and we've had precious little of either lately.  I'd be hoping for a reaction after Saturday (Arsenal's performance was a reaction to the Spurs loss and their defeat in Europe) so we need something similar.  A draw and Anfield, which isn't that great a shock these days, plus winning the tie against the scum, and we'd build some confidence going into the WBA game and I'd then expect us to win.  After that we'd be 'flying' and I'd fancy somnething at Wigan.  Do that and we'd be much more capable of beating Spurs, although a draw is more likely.  Take that run into the Man City game and we'd be expecting a point.  And with a bit of luck one of those draws could easily be a win.  However lose the next one and we'd be struggling for confidence and scrape a point here or there in these games.  Basically, we need a morale boosting win and soon to get us going again.

We do have good players and we should pick up once the injured ones are back, but we're underperforming right now and that's for Gezza to put right.

7-9 is my optomistic prediction.

We can win all of these games, and I'm especially excited about going to Liverpool. It may be the only thing he knows about us, but Lawro has a point when he talks about our counter-attacking (Downing's probably the best player on the break in the league at the moment), and with them missing their key creatives and being on home soil, I can see them trying to attack us but not breaking us down and us getting them on the counter. How badly do I want to beat City though. Won't happen, but by god I want nothing more.
