Upcoming three London derbies

Fulham (A)
Chelsea (H)
Brentford (A)
Certainly three winnable games, but no doubt these three sides will fancy playing us too. Heart says 9 points, but it's a hard one to call as it's still early under the new regime and not easy to predict how we will turn up. Realistically, I'll go for 4 points.
You devils?

I want, think we can get at least 6 points. I feel Lopetegui is already getting things to settle down with all the changes and new players. I can see us continuing to improve with these 3 games. Need to start that with a win at Fulham on Saturday.

I'd agree - 4 points is realistic. We're going to take a long time to properly get going with such a new team and manager. I think we'll beat Brentford, get a point against Fulham and get battered by Chelsea but time will tell.
It will take an especially long time to get going when the manager is a complete loser who has been sacked from every top level job he's ever had bar Wolves, which he walked out of after half a season in a hissy fit over the transfer budget.

Of course you could get a ticket for Chelsea. You can pick up tickets for pretty much every home match.

In all my years on here I've never seen a game by game run down by a poster detailing exactly why he won't be attending the next (four) games, but according to Sydney it's because he's been on here for 20 plus years? How do you even begin to get that, LOL.

Of course nobody gives a fuck. Yes, im strange its what 20 plus years posting on WHO does to your online persona perhaps? Given the shit i see on Facebook from people i know (in real life) and family though im pretty tame, but i doubt anyone gives a fuck about that either, except you perhaps who feels the need to comment.
Get a life FFS.
I'm not going to any of the next four games, just thought I'd let you know.

Anyone who thinks we’re getting 9 points is in a dream world.
We’re getting 4 points, which I’d happily take.

Sydney - So you're in the UK for four games, you ain't going to any of them, yet you decide to put up an excitable Facebook type post telling us why you can't get to any of them? You're strange, and nobody gives a fuck, fella.

Im in the UK for all 3 of these BUT.....
Arrive at about HT on the 15th (Fulham), wont get to Chelsea as other commitments, not that i could get a ticket anyway!!! LOL and then leave the UK on the 29th the same day as Brentford away.
9 points though? You know it makes sense..........
Liverpool away in the Carabao on the 26th but be in Bordeaux on that day now before returning to the UK, would have liked to have gone to that, interesting to see how Lopu approaches that one? Hopefully all guns blazing unlike the shameful towel throw from the Jock last season in the QF!

Anything less than 10 points in unacceptable for the new manager.
LOL

No reason why we can't win all 3 games, we have the better players.

4 points for me. A win against one of Fulham or Brentford, a draw in the other and a defeat to Chelsea.

The second half of the City match certainly showed that there's a team in there, but I feel a little more managerial tweaking is needed.
7 points is achievable, I feel.

6 points I reckon. Beat Fulham, beat Chelsea, lose to Brentford

If we play like we did in the second half against City I think we can get 6 or 7 points, 9 points just might be a stretch too far.
I'll be disappointed with less than 5 points though.

Those three clubs have had similar starts to us plus it's to early in the season to go on form. I' go alo g with Manny, 4 points

Not so confident for 9 pts.
Fulham (A) - Draw
Chelsea (H) - Win
Brentford (A) - Draw

I think we will win one, draw one and lose one.
given how unpredictable we are I won't dare match the results to each game.
So likewise, I expect 4 points
