Yes, I take your point. There's a chance that Southampton suddenly hit form and go on a long winning streak, a bit like Norwich last season. There's also a chance we completely implode, a bit like Leeds two years ago and almost again last year.
But for Southampton to overtake us, I'd have thought both would have to happen, which to me seems unlikely. From our point of view, Albion don't look like a side living on borrowed time do they?
I agree that we look like a team who will be top six at the moment. The last two home games, whilst not being fantastic, have shown that we can win ugly. We probably wouldn't have won either of those games last season and now we are grinding out results as well as playing great football when allowed to.
It is great at the moment though with us top and the division's two "big clubs" Southampton and Wednesday struggling in the bottom half.
