So in like for like fixtures we are only 1 point worse than last season?

Our last 13 games last season 4-4-5 16 points
Our first 13 games this season 6-2-5 20 points
 
Yep, but from our next 5 games we got 10 points last season.

Wednesday 28th November 2012
Tottenham Hotspur (4-0) Liverpool 19:45

Saturday 01st December 2012
Fulham (1-3) Tottenham Hotspur 15:00

Sunday 09th December 2012
Everton (1-0) Tottenham Hotspur 15:00

Sunday 16th December 2012
Tottenham Hotspur (3-1) Swansea City 13:30

Saturday 22nd December 2012
Tottenham Hotspur (1-1) Stoke City 15:00
 
Once West Ham drop off I think all of them will finish in the top 11 (would be top half were it not for WBA). Not at all confident, but it's time we went on a good run.

West Ham are obviously far superior to Wolves. Arsenal can make up a lot of points by winning away at QPR, Reading and Southampton. Last season they only got one point from those fixtures.

It a good point, but i'd always rather have the points in the bag.

The blue line shows last years points while the yellow one uses this year's fixture list with last season's results. Green is this season.

Okay, we have six in the bag. Without Bale for probably both Everton/Swansea games, can we get 3 or more from these two games?

I think the trick is for us to have a balanced team across the field. We may need Super Jan to bomb forward more.

A strange but interesting fact, in all the EPL games that Dembele has started for us, we won. in the two games he was subbed on, we drew Norwich (Dembele scored) and beat Spammers. so, even if he isn't a direct Modric type creative CM replacement, it's still easy to see how a good CM could change the results by forcing the opponents not just focusing on stopping our two wingers.
 
Just had a look at our upcoming fixtures and last years results. In the next 9 last year (Bolton for Reading) it is 3-3-3.

A draw against Everton and it is equilibrium.

Everton 0-1
Swansea 3-1
Stoke 1-1
Villa 1-1
Sunderland 0-0
Reading (Bolton) 4-1
QPR 0-1
United 0-3
Norwich 2-0

Also 6 of our next nine games are on the telly!!!
