I thought when I saw the first 6 fixtures that if we had a total of 6 points it wouldn't be too bad. We've got 7 so far and still got a home game against Stoke to come. I'd sort of be happy with a draw Saturday as it will take us into the international break on 8 points and a chance to re group and work on a few things for the games in October. We've also had 3 pretty tough away fixtures out of the way early in the season, I'd expect all those 3 teams to be in the top 8 somewhere. Also decent result against Bristol City as they look top 6 to me. Other positives so far, Sunjic looks a decent player even though he likes the cards a bit too much. Montero could be a decent signing if we could keep him fit. Villalba looks to have some quality as does Crowley. Giminez from his finish the other night looks as though he can finish given some service. It's also only 5 games in so it's early days and it will take a few games for some of these players to gel. Also think over all Roberts has been better than we thought although yesterday wasn't great. Also great to see Jude Bellingham start to get a chance and think we will see a lot more of him this season. Yes Forest and Swansea were pretty poor performances but we've still got 7 points on the board which is a lot more than at this stage last season. I think the time to judge where we are is at the end of October. I expect the home form to be fairly decent this season and away we may struggle and pick up the odd win and some draws. Also January we will be able to address the striker position that's still a problem. KRO.
