The key on the amount of points needed to stay up will be this January. I'm sure 'Arry will be wheeling and dealing and with the draw of high wages and London, will probably hoover up the types of players we will need. For example, I expect Parker to be a QPR player by Feb 1st. So we need to improve our team with better players then Reading, QPR and Southampton
As for matches, at least when we lose to Swansea, our rivals should all lose as well although one of them could get a shock result. But we definitely need 3 points against Southampton now. A loss then could see a 3 point and +15 or more GD between us and 17th place.
If we end January in the bottom two or adrift of 17th, we are down.
