I can't see us losing another game to be honest.
I'm genuinely interested to know if you'd now reassess your predictions for the remaining games based on our current form, or would you stick to your original guesses.
Caveat: this is not an attempt at a dig.
Not taken as a dig, its an interesting and justified question.
Spurs have a knack of kicking you in the bollocks when you feel good, so one good week does not fully eradicate all my concerns. However, it has given me a lot more hope.
Three excellent performances already this season (Everton, Palace and City)....already on a par with the whole of last season. Its the play, not just the results that please me....Ive been saying that since AVB. Sunderland made me want Poch out, it was awful, and it doenst become a better performance because the last week.
We have improved IMMENSELY.
Personally, I think its an insult to the team to think the last week was just as good as the first few weeks, and we were just unlucky.
Poch has shown a cunning side I havent seen too often, and Lamela has been a joy to watch, along with the whole team. They have stepped up and deserve credit for that, not claims that it was always this good.
I think we will get more than my prediction, but Im not getting carried away. The predictions are still pretty fair IMO, however I think we will pick up a few more wins than I first thought.
Anyone want to change their mind? Yorkshire_Spurs has nailed it.
Just realised I never posted my individual predictions. I actually think we could take more points from the 'top' 4-5 below but, probably won't or, if we do will throw in a different slip-up.
I've added my genuine predictions for the past two games, hoped we'd beat Sunderland and did not think we would beat Palace.
I'm sticking with the original 20-23pts bracket after 15 games as Newcastle is match number 16.
v Sunderland (A) - 3 points
v Palace (H) - 1 points
v City (H) - 0 points
v Swansea (A) - 1 point
v Liverpool (H) - 1 points
v Bournemouth (A) - 3 points
v Aston Villa (H) - 3 points
v Woolwich (A) - 0 points
v West Ham (H) - 1 points
v Chelsea (H) - 1 point
v West Brom (A) - 3 points
v Newcastle (H) - 3 points
Looking at our Thurs/Sun spread and the workload already on Dier and Kane, the above will still be tough going I reckon.
12 game winning streak.
25pts already and two matches to go, praying it's 6 more and then it's a brilliant return given our first 5 games.
