Mick McCarthy's men sit second from bottom in the top-flight standings, with a six-match winless run seeing them slip into trouble.[LNB]They are, however, within touching distance of those above them, with just five points separating them from Fulham in 11th.[LNB]It is precisely that fact which has Stearman upbeat, with the England Under-21 international of the opinion that a few positive results will help to ease Wolves' worries.[LNB]"If you look at the table at the moment, we are second from bottom but one win and you jump about five places," he told the Birmingham Mail.[LNB]"It's so tight at the bottom there and we said this week on the training ground how well we've done so far despite how it looks.[LNB]"We've just got to keep picking up points and a few wins and the whole table will take on a very different view.[LNB]"As a team we are happy with how it's gone so far but just have to make sure we pick up points."[LNB]Wolves' latest outing saw them crushed 4-1 by title hopefuls Arsenal, but Stearman admits that it is results against 'teams in and around' them which will ultimately shape their season.[LNB]"The result shows where we need to get to in terms of just how good Arsenal were," he added. [LNB]"Thank goodness we don't play Arsenal every week and as the gaffer said we're not going to be judging our season on results against the very top teams.[LNB]"It's going to be positive results against the teams in and around is that will keep us in this league.[LNB]"If we manage to nick a point or two from somewhere against one of the big boys then great but we are looking at the teams in and around us from which to get our points."[LNB][LNB] Prem Relegation 2009/2010 Win Outright: Wolves 5/4
