Four London derby's, which are always hard fought.
Currently we do not pose any type of fear factor for our opponents.
Which we would have hoped to have developed off the back of a very positive preseason.
Fulham (a)
Burnley (a)
After that,
AFC(h), Brentford (h), Tottenham (a), City (h), Newcastle (a), Brighton (h)
On current form its difficult to see us returning more than 6 points from 24 out of this run.
Putting us on 11 points the first week of December.
if that is the tally the 5 h17e will really hit the fan at Stamford Bridge
Hopefully this will not be the case
COY Blues, KTBFFH,
Next 8 premiership league games!

Crikey that's some run...
All it takes though is one good game and a bit of confidence and things might click upfront.
I don't think Chelsea are playing badly, and there's a very talented team there so I would not be surprise if it does click soon.
If it doesn't then Poch is in trouble because that's a tough run

Yeah, well clicking ?
To date in each game the sides have had periods of good quality and possession, but its not control of the entire game and we are a million miles off being a goal threat.
The problem with the run, is that sides we are playing are on the whole getting into their stride and building confidence.
Yes we need to click, get clinical and start to control games.
I think it will be a tough call to achieve that in this run.

You’re lucky the 3 promoted teams couldn’t win a game if their lives depended on it. Else you would be in trouble.

The results haven't reflected the performance level thus far.
Dropped points is not through a lack of effort or desire, just the last bit sorely missing to kill teams.

Good coaching moves here.
Ruthless nature and killer instinct isn't there yet from the experience players nor the young players, will click eventually.
Abundant amount of times this team is able to position and arrive in advantageous areas within the box is encouraging, a lot more than the previous season.

i agree about the results do not reflect the performance levels .
But in front of goal we are nowhere near a threat.
We are not taking our chances, which do arise, and that imo is essential considering we do not have a genuine goal scoring threat.
Personally i don't think we have anything in the final third.
Continuously half hearted crosses, with no one to intercept. No one prepared to take have a go at goal from distance.
It maybe encouraging, but after 1 bln pounds we should be doing better, i beleive we have not won more 6 games in all competitions in 2023.
I dont think that this is players or even the managers fault , imo it lys with the owners and directors of football who decided to build the squad in the way that they have.

The Prem is so poor, that teams like Chelsea and Everton probably only have to pick up 20-25 points to stay up.
Never seen such a weak top flight.

Very true Sandy. If Spurs can challenge for Top 4 then the league is incredibly weak.
