Newcastle United
After dropping 8 points in their last 3 games, albeit against arguably the best 3 teams in the league, and with Steven Taylor out for possibly the rest of the season and with their long haired Argentinian defender also now injured, I cannot help agreeing with the view expressed by this Toon supporter on Yahoo today...Spugsy may have another opinion...
"...now we will see Newcastle's character and Pardew's ability. All these points gained were only ever for one thing - fighting against relegation. I will be satisfied with a top-half finish. Most of our forwards are Championship level, unfortunately."

Yeah it's going to be tough, and we don't have a big squad but we have quite a few points on the board and some hungry players, also Tiote, our most influential player has been out for a while and yeah we don't have any spare defenders so we'll have to pull together and see what sort of team we can now put out.
Don't forget January isn't far away so it's possible we may buy, certainly another striker.

Ba has 9 goals, is that championship level?

Not only that, look at our next 4 games, Norwich away, then Swansea and West Brom at home followed by Bolton away before we have Liverpool away and Utd at home (both of which I'll be watching live in New York).
We should win the first 4 then a draw for the ast two wouldn't be a bad haul of 14 points from 18. That'll do me.
We should buy Alex from Chelsea - have you seen his free kicks - another centre half and a striker that can play with Ba.
We can still make top 5 or 6.
