How many points to win the league?

We are still on course for 100 points based on the tally so far, but only just.
We'll struggle to get 100 points in my opinion - low 90s is my guess. The team need to stay focussed in all competitions but there'll be a natural tailing off in effort towards the end with the title in the bag, especially with the World Cup looming.
 
Well the best predictive site on the net now says that only 78 points will win it.

We are predicted to get 96

Also says Liverpool will finish second though United are still our biggest threat with a 1 in 1000 chance of winning it.

On the other hand we could turn on the style....
 
As was pointed out to me, the last 4 fixtures are easy so we could rest players and still beat the 95 record points total. It will be close.

Pep will not let them relax as winning breeds a winning mentality for the more important games.

I think there is a 100% chance of United whining it. There whined long and loud in 2012!

They won't be easy if those teams are fighting to stay up and the title's won.

That's actually a myth like teams play better with ten men. If. You have a choice to play the bottom team trying to avoid going down or a mid table team, choose the team at the bottom as they are there for a reason.

People just remember the big escapes but they are much rarer than you would imagine.
