How many points to win the league?

[taleofbluehalves]

We would need to lose 5 times and united would have to win 18 games in a row.

Neither is going to happen.

Plus we’ve lost twice in 2017 in total.

Be nice to break every possible record going.

3 points less than yesterday. Next.

It is hard to see when we will drop points but realistic speaking we will do at sime time .I reckon it will be Liverpool or Burnley who will give us the biggest test up to date.if we get 3 points from both of them .who knows what will happen next year!!!!

What is this "dropping points" you speak of? Should this be in off topic?

 

[Deleted member 81382]

Really starting to think we are going to reach 100 points now. We can still afford to drop 12 and still do it.

 

[levets]

84

We need exactly two points per game now, if we cock this up we'll never hear the end of it

Is that right we only need 13 more wins or less if results go for us? Shirley not! We're only in December.

Yep to guarantee winning the league personally I think 10 win be enough.

Easily.

10 wins, 4 draws, 4 defeats.

92 points. No one will top that. I can't see that either. I think we are more likely to be something like 13/3/2.

That is mental. I want to start getting giddy about it but I'm reigning it in, one game at a time but God it's so difficult to not look further down the line.

 

[aguerrrroooooooooooo]

Bold prediction perhaps but I predict city will be at least 17 points clear by 10 pm on the second of Jan

 

[herrock]

13 wins from 18 at the moment, but probably won't need that many.

 

[Rammyblues]

One more than the team who finish second is the only guarantee. Prefer we hit the various milestones the next being the 70 point mark which usually signifies done enough for CL footie next season. Lets see how quick we can get there and whether our lead is still intact. Feet on ground for the moment.

Anybody else starting to think with Chelsea shifting through the gears recently means they're gonna be more of a threat than united?

Yup. They are an excellent team. Engine with Kante, pace with Hazard, solid CBs, great net-minder. United are all smoke and mirrors right now. Chelsea are the real deal IMO.

Agreed, they're a top side who could make a fist of Europe if they play to their capabilities
