If we get a result on Saturday and pick something up from our game in hand against Newcastle, it can still change our season.
clean determine few results round sheets turned whether
We are getting a few clean sheets now and that is the only way we could have turned it around really. Only results will determine whether we really have turned it round but the Premiership is so tough. You have to be up for it every game.
narrow
Once they have got preliminary discussions out of the way they will narrow it down because they want to do it before the World Cup.
again chasing defenders ended finish four game goal goals great past players point run second
Once again we ended up chasing the game - but their first goal infuriated me. Their second goal was a great run and finish - but from our point of view, you can't let players go past four defenders like that. The two goals we conceded were avoidable.

Spector popped his shoulder out - he went straight to hospital.
concerned contribute enhance far games improve mean perform score scoring week
As far as I'm concerned Darren has just got to keep in Eriksson's face. I don't mean by scoring every week or getting to 20 goals, he just has to perform well and try to improve his game. There are going to be games when he isn't going to score so he has to contribute more in other ways. If he can do that it is only going to enhance his position.
