How many points to win the league?

Chelsea have to play us, Liverpool, Spurs and United yet, I seriously doubt they will win all of those. I personally think the gap is more likely to increase because we are probably the only team that can go to Liverpool or Arsenal and win. Most of the top 4 will of played each other by March and by then I think it could be over with if results go our way.

The one player Pep needs to manage is Fernandinho, he will definitely not play against Burnley and I don't think he needs to play against Bristol either. If he can get away with playing Sane/KDB/Sterling/Aguero for only one of the cup games until Liverpool then we will be in a very good position. It is going to be a very important squad depth test week for Yaya/Bernardo and the young lads.
Agree, but in next ten games Chelsea face us and United away. They are capable of winning one of those games. I don’t expect the gap to widen much between us and Chelsea in the next ten games other than a point or two max. That being the case, I hope we can get to 87/88 points by end March. Chelsea could get another 23/24 points by then putting them on 69/70, an eighteen point lead with 6 games to go. That’s why I say if we can get through the next ten games with 8 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss, Everton away or the Derby is where we will get over the line. All ifs and buts albeit based on a sensible assessment of current form of the top three.

The way things are I think the gap will widen, we have never looked like not winning but United and Chelsea both seem to have a draw in them every game. Last year I would of said we won't win every game either but so far we have only been proven wrong twice in 22 attempts...

If you look at the fixtures in February there is potentially a lot to gain there, Spurs play United at Spurs and then United play Chelsea right in the middle of the CL fixtures. Chelsea play United, then Barcelona and then us... I think that is where it will be decided and it will be long over by the derby.

The only danger I would be worried about at the moment is Spurs or Liverpool but they are too far away to worry about and they are more likely to do us a massive favour in beating the teams around us.
