Anyone think after the start we've had, we can go one better than last season and finish 8th? Can't see it myself with the injuries we've started with, but after Leicester last season, anythings possible!!!

Indeed, I think it's possible.

Maybe, the next ten games will give us a big clue.

I certainly reckon so, can't see why not. You've got a lot of quality in your squad and if all your players can click as a group, you could do great things but that's the key thing about it, having the group playing well altogether. Bony will score goals with suitable service, I was impressed when he signed for you. I do think with regular game time Wilfried can be a real goalscorer. Best of luck for this season, it'd be nice to see another Midlands club do well this season, you've got plenty of potential to do so.

Based on our form since February, absolutely not. If we don't click in the next 2 weeks or so I anticipate a very difficult season

About as much chance of that as Celtic winning the Champions League!.

I would have bet against reading a post like this back in May 2008 and doubt whether you ever saw yourself sending it  Your club achieved something we can but dream of. Can't see the same happening again in my lifetime. I envy you mate, make the most of it and good luck tonight. |

Certainly think its possible. Last season we were in the running for a Europa spot despite not winning any of the first 6.

If we can get 20 wins plus some draws from our next 34 games we can finish in the top 6.  |

We finished 9th last season and had one more point at this stage, and ended the season terribly. Therefore, there is no reason why we cannot secure more points and finish higher if we improve once again and become consistent.
The next four or five games will tell us if this is just another Hughes' slow start or a major downturn in our form.

Top half would do nicely, (preferably) with or without a cup run.

I'd like to get More than 29 points which is what our current form indicates is likely

8th place finish. My prediction from the start, so I hope so.

8th spot? Hmmm. Lets look at the last 20 premier league matches we've played.
P 20
Won 5
Drew 4
Lost 11
Goals scored 20
Goals against 43
Points 19.
Last 14 league games
P 14
W 2
D 4
L 8
Goals scored 13
Goals against 32
Last half season of premier league matches - 19
P 19 w 5 d 4 L 10 gs 20 ga 40 points 19
Can't see anything other than a relegation struggle unless there are big changes?

Have a feeling we'll end up somewhere from 10th to 12th this season! Throw in a cup final and I can take that! |
