We have 1 point more over the equivalent 4 games last season.
So that extrapolates to a 9 - 10 point gain over the season, which would have been a 13th place finish last year.
Be real!

The real season starts after the international break when we have all finished laughing at Southgate’s pathetic England side. Potter is going to be great I predict after 10 games or so we will be smashing a few teams.
I never thought I'd agree with such a comment, but I do. Partly because I really don't think we will be relegated playing like this (with these players), and partly because I had glossed over how much I didn't enjoy watching us last season, on occasions thinking I'd rather watch it on the box round my mate's house than schlep all the way down to the Amex. This season I am really looking forward to the next game.
You do know it's Burnley up next, right?
Yes. I watched them on the telly last night and enjoyed their primitive hoofing style, and their up-and-coming strikeforce of our second and third strikers from ten years ago. I think there is a chance we'll finally rip them the new one they deserve.
Utterly disagree. Way better. We won a few games at the start of last season despite our woeful style, come the Christmas break the truth caught up with us. This time around we are getting points and goals because of our play not in spite of it. Yes we could have had more with WH and certainly SH but at least we deserved to get those points.

Interesting piece on R5 live this morning where they had CH talking about the Spurs (managerial) position. The hosts later stated that perhaps he (CH) would not have been so cavalier with Man City fixture had he still been in charge at Btn and the result may have been different!....Yeah righto ! probably been battered, defending for our lives with 2 banks of 4 for 90 minutes, never featuring into the Man C half of the pitch. More than happy with the performance yesterday and have high hopes for the future

Same. Those, and there are a few on here, who don’t care how shit the football is as long as we win amaze me. I WAS looking for excuses not to go by the end of last season, it was that painful to me. NEVER felt like that schlepping to Gillingham FFS. The joy was squeezed out of the football for me last season.

What a load of crap, when did we ever look like beating Man City when CH was in charge. Of the five games we’ve played against them yesterday was our best performance. I post on another forum and we received a big thumbs up from a City fan about how refreshing it was to see the way Brighton played compared to previous games. He was also convinced we’d stay up comfortably if we keep playing like that. Good to get away from the anti football comments even if we got the same number of points as previous park the bus ones.
There was those few seconds immediately after Murray scored to put us 1-0 up last season. Y'know, before everyone lined up for kick off and reality set in...

Your Toto Wolff quote alas is now acting as a satirical commentary on what’s immediately above
That's just insane thinking. You have all forgotten what it is like to play in lower divisions.
Be real! One point positive in the last 4 games, one point negative in the next 4 games. Staying in place.
Conjecture on your part. Not true. Results are what ultimately matter.

Nothing to suggest that we will be 1 point negative in the next 4 games.
And nothing to suggest that we will be one point positive either.

I bet we will be at least 1 point up overall by the end of the Burnley game !
We shall see.

We got zero points from Burnley at home last year, so it's a 100% chance [emoji38]ol:
**** me I thought I could be black and white, we are clearly a very improved side. To say there has been no improvement and basing this solely on points is plain daft.
