'Win a game, even if it is scruffy'published at 12:05 31 October
The bottom six teams in the Premier League all play one another on Saturday and with the way the season has gone so far, those fixtures are going to be big.
Winning these games and earning three points could at the end of the season be called the six-pointers.
When I played for Reading and we were fighting down the bottom of the league, these are the fixtures that we looked for because they are must-win games.
I am not sure Crystal Palace would have targeted these at the start of the season because they would have expected to have been higher in the league, but the newly promoted teams will have.
Wolves probably need the win the most because they wouldn't have expected to be second from bottom after nine games and they need to start picking up results.
It is a little bit more difficult for the promoted teams because they are still trying to adapt to the Premier League.
I don't think these results will necessarily define any team's season - as it so early on - but winning helps to break the rut and sometimes it becomes difficult for teams to know how to win when they aren't.
For all of these teams something has to adapt at some stage. You have to find a way to win a game, even if it is scruffy, and especially against those teams that are in and around you.
