How many points will be needed to win the league? (74 GD)

[simon23]

Leicester are a big threat ...there wont be many teams that take points off them.....
Utd will continue to somehow grind out results no matter how average they play.

They're too close for comfort.
Our game against them will be more important than I first thought

If we do our job in other games the result against them wont matter....

Starting with spurs today

 

[lee one pen]

Changing my vote, no less than 90

I think we will get 88-90 now so no room for error from the chasing pack.

West Ham, Aston Villa, Liverpool, Fulham, Everton, Manchester United, Crystal Palace, Everton again, Leeds United and Wolves managed it so far.

I now reckon we will win it with mid 80's points, Leicester will get beaten a couple of times yet I think, and the rags can't continue to be so lucky

Leicester were no great shakes today. the dippers outplayed them for most of the game. Mid 80s will still be enough.

They have a decent run of fixtures through to the finish now. Last three Utd at home, Chelsea away, Spurs at home is their toughest stretch.

It will be all over with five games to go.

After we lost to Spurs we were 13th, had a -1 Goal Difference and were on course for a 57 point season off PPG

another game to cross of the list and 3 more points. with 15 games to go and on 53 points city can still get 98 points
i think until the rest fall away and can no longer catch city. the points total aim should be maximum and the full 98 points

funny enough everton can still get 98 points and is our next game in mid week. but i doubt everton will get 98 ?
yes a good team but the squad is thin and some big games coming up. injury hit this weekend for the game vs fulham
so let see if jose moaning about how tired spurs was today everton should be at walking pace

i still think pep will keep the players going if we have won the title with 4 or 5 to go its the only way pep thinks

 

[jimharri]

15 games to go for us. We can get to 98 pts, Liverpool can get to 82 pts, utd to 90 pts and Leicester to 88 (I'm ruling out anyone else). Mid-high 80s ought to be enough. Can't see utd winning their last 15 games. Liverpool would have a job winning an argument at the moment. Leicester might do well to get up to 80 pts.

This cant be right

I agree. So the question is what points will win the league. My view is 84, 85 will be enough. we may make 90+ but that wasn’t the question.

you have to set the total based on the rest can reach ? united can get 90 points so 91 for me

Everton can only get 88 if they win every game. They are 16 points behind us, not sure how you think they have the same maximum as us!!??
