Well this next month will show us what level we really are. We're all of mixed opinions on here, I personally think we're too lightweight in attack to win the league and also at CB, yet we have scored 3 in our last 3 games. I really hope I'm proven wrong. These next fixtures of Arsenal and Everton away, city at home and palace away, with Wolfsburg and a trip to Russia in between could define our season. I think 7 points and upwards would be ok from the next 4 games considering. Testing times ahead. Looking forward to it

I'm expecting 10 points there myself.

I think I would take 5 points to be honest, November and December are much easier on paper, i wouldn't be happy with a win 2 draws and a loss but it wouldn't be the end of the world with the fixtures to come.

We played really well in the big games last season. The lower league teams is where we lost out. I'm hopeful for 4 positive results just based on how LVG prepares us for the big games.

10 points wow. I think 5 or 6 points would be pretty good. The entire league looks tough and very few easy teams. Our october schedule is tough but so is Evertons and Liverpools and Spurs. I expect City to be leading at the end of the month and Arsenal up there too.

I think we will win them all. We are hard to beat with this type of football and Martial gives us a genuine threat to get goals.

Beast,
This positivity is weird, what's the catch?
28 Sep 2015 11:00:39
I think draw at Arsenal, win at Everton, we can beat city at home, and we should be beating palace. I think the way we set up is harder for the more attacking teams that we play.

Arsenal Defence is not great they were all over the place for Leicester's 2 goals, Arsenal got 5 because Leicester went out to play. We will not grant them that luxurywe are a much tighter defensive unit all round than Leicester so I think we will beat Arsenal 2 nil, draw against Everton and Beat CSKA and City TBH
Personally I can see us getting at least 10 points in Oct

GDS2 - No catch mate, I am confident we will win the league and quite possibly the CL - we are difficult to beat and Martial adds a lot of what we have been missing. All LVG needs to do is drop underperforming players occasionally and it will be a formality. If we can be top of the league with Rooney, Depay & Mata being practically anonymous then it bodes well.
I just hate the way we play and would rather not perpetuate the negative/cagey football that is growing throughout the game.

Beast maybe its a master plan to bore everyone to sleep first.

In all seriousness, are people really that bored? Thought we played some decent stuff on Saturday and in the previous few games, it's not the 'you score 3 we score 4' game which people have in their heads we played for 25 years under Fergie, but it is better than the last 5 years. I would say we are playing the best football we have seen since our last CL final.
