    With my optimist hat on I can see us getting a maximum 19 or 20 points from the above fixtures, but we will need to be consistent and cause a few surprises!

    15 points. Might be enough. Just.

    I remember taking the piss out of Hartley because he said 6 points from Christmas until the end of the season just before we got 4 in the next 2. Now I’m afraid he might be right

    These are our best chances

    We're going to have to beat Burnley or So'ton. We're going to need to catch someone!

    We need to beat that scum scouse lot , with that result actually stopping them wining the league , if that happens I don't give a flying duck if we plummet to the depths of the conference league ,just want to see their grief and tears after trying so hard but failing.

    Try doing this!

    https://www.worldfootball.net/table_...remier-league/

    I did it yesterday and tried to be as realistic as possible. Had us staying up on 32 points just one ahead of Burnley. Fulham and Huddersfield to go down as well. ManU to pinch 4th place.

    I know that it is just a guesstimate at the very best but what it did show was the difficult fixtures those around us have. We tend to just look at our fixtures!!

    Which games do you think we'll win before Fulham?

    I don't know but we'll pick up one or two. My point is, we're not going to suddenly win two on the spin if we haven't won a game in 2019!

    Re: Where are the points going to come from?

    I see
    Watford
    West Ham
    Palace

    As possible wins
    Soton
    Chelsea
    Burnley

    As possible draws

    I need another win from somewhere.

    I see your point, but I can't see us winning anything before Fulham. Maybe Everton at a push, but I'm not convinced.

    We'll get a win. We beat Leicester away 3 games ago after they'd beat Chelsea and Man City.

    Re: Where are the points going to come from?

    According to this 'alternative' xG league table, Cardiff should be 16th.

    https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/...nited-15709521

    It does suggest that on the season to date (hopefully the last 4 weeks is a blip) we are keeping our heads above water (in the alternative sea of course), that Newcastle and Burnley are neck and neck with us, that Southampton should pull away to safety, and that Brighton are sliding into trouble!

    TLG will really appreciate this!

    Brighton were "safe", now they're 7 points ahead. I can't see us catching them but who knows. We really could have done with winning vs Huddersfield or Newcastle but we didn't, so there we go. I still think it'll be 3 of the bottom 7 but Brighton may completely collapse.

    Re: Where are the points going to come from?

    I we keep "playing it safe" or trying to "keep it tight" until late in the game, we're not going to make it. We need to start taking risks. Having watched the last two games, It's hard to see a win anywhere on that list. Let's hope the new guys gel, let's hope we get the best out out of Camarasa, get some quality balls into the box and see what happens.

    Re: Where are the points going to come from?

    5 wins + 5 draws = 20pts - (39 pts)
    5 wins + 4 draws = 19pts - (38 pts)
    5 wins + 3 draws = 18pts - (37 pts)
    4 wins + 5 draws = 17pts - (36 pts)
    4 wins + 4 draws = 16pts - (35 pts)
    4 wins + 3 draws = 15pts - (34 pts)
    3 wins + 5 draws = 14pts - (33 pts)
    3 wins + 4 draws = 13pts - (32 pts)
    3 wins + 3 draws = 12pts - (31 pts)

    It's certainly going to be an interesting couple of months.
