    That's a really tough run.

    IMO we need to keep MON in place till January, looking at that. Give him the new year Derby and then sign off on that.

    Feeling more confident about it.

    The player depth is shocking poor in quality
    No denying it.
    But we are now at least seeing that the ones we do have are still capable of playing decent football and going for the wins.

    Europe we will be schooled all campaign no doubt.

    But the league as we stand, we should power on now.

    The biggest advantage that we have over teams like Hearts is our fitness. We know how to play teams twice a week and can win throughout that period. The run up to Christmas is mental this year with no January break either, so I’d expect Hearts to start struggling once games ramp up to a couple a week.

    I think we need to reel in Hearts quick as we can so we will be relying on them dropping points.

    The gap is currently 9 with a game in hand, we have a League Cup final to come and that will probably be Hearts with 2 games in hand. We need to be first of all going on a 7/8 game winning run in the league and then hoping Hearts begin tripping up.

    Don't think we can discount Rangers yet with the gap only at 5.

    Still put Hearts as favourites.

    Squads will look completely different after January though so if we can get there within touching distance then that could change. The hun will no doubt strengthen as well. 2nd half of the season is far bigger than this half.

    We also have a tough spell in December and early Jan where we look like we will definitely be without Tounekti, Balikwisha, CCV, Jota and AJ among others. We will face Rangers in that time.

    Daizen could well be off in Jan as well so we have a lot of hurdles coming up.

    I think it will largely depend on Hearts having a wobble and how soon that can happen.

    We need to have a couple of right side wingers lines up for the first week in Jan.

    Yang, Maeda, Shin/Kelechi probably out the door.
