18 points in the end and they won it after 33 games. I'd hope we'd beat the first from here and if we keep our foot down the second is possible as well.What's the record for the earliest the title has been won (in terms of games remaining when the title was confirmed)? Didn't the rags win it by a, er, "massive" margin in the early noughties?
Most points in a season is 95 (Chelsea 2004/5) so we need another 23. Would be nice to break Moaninho's record.Most points in a prem season by us 89. We need 17 more.
Only Top 5 qualify automatically for Europe from the league.I would love to know what is the earliest that a team has guaranteed European football. We did so at weekend of course.
Yes, but seventh can't catch us and the League Cup Europa League spot is between us and Arsenal.Only Top 5 qualify automatically for Europe from the league.
Thanks for that. So we need to get 18 points in the next 6 games then to equal the games played margin (assuming the rags win their next 5 games).18 points in the end and they won it after 33 games. I'd hope we'd beat the first from here and if we keep our foot down the second is possible as well.
Yep, safe to say that even if they don't Liverpool, Spurs or Chelsea will so at a minimum we'll probably need 15.Thanks for that. So we need to get 18 points in the next 6 games then to equal the games played margin (assuming the rags win their next 5 games).
Don't forget these other fixtures before the derby, at least one of the remaining top 5 clubs has to drop points in them, 3 draws would probably fuck all of them up!Yep, safe to say that even if they don't Liverpool, Spurs or Chelsea will so at a minimum we'll probably need 15.
I doubt we'll manage that one, assuming we're still in the CL I suspect Pep will rotate heavily in the remaining PL games once the title is done and dusted.What about the home premier league goals record - the record is 68, we're on 50. So to beat it we need 19 against Chelsea, Brighton, United, Swansea and Huddersfield? Doable

What if Burnley go above Arsenal?Yes, but seventh can't catch us and the League Cup Europa League spot is between us and Arsenal.
Then the lowest we finish is fifth, which is a Europa League spot.What if Burnley go above Arsenal?
Good thinking :)Then the lowest we finish is fifth, which is a Europa League spot.
United won it with 5 games to spare. We’d need one more better result than them prior to the derby to win it with 6 games to spare.
If PSG don't lose tonight (reducing Real Madrid's and Spanish league's rating) and Liverpool win (improving EPL rating) we will go second in this ranking http://clubelo.com/ which will be our highest of all time.
Complicated I know, and not really a record in most people's book, but it would be in mine. Just something to look out for tonight if you are a stat geek.
