On paper JE's off to a terrible start. 4 points out of 24, clear relegation form. However, 2 of those defeats were against the runaway top 2. And there was a real element of misfortune about the points dropped against Sunderland and even the loss to Cardiff (then again, as the saying goes, the more I practised and trained, the luckier I got). We've got Huddersfield, Stoke, QPR and Norwich coming up between now and New Year. Until we're over those matches, I wouldn't be making too many judgements about JE or the rest of the season.
