The Title Race - 2023/24

How many points will be needed to win the league?

  • Total voters

Is it just me or that goal doesn’t get disallowed if it’s anyone else, I came out the ground so angry but I’m going to just say I’m accepting it now, I’d absolutely rip your arm off with super cup, club World Cup and champions league. Champions league qualification, FA Cup, Super Cup and Club World Cup would be a very good season from here
 
If we were in Liverpool's place, and they were in ours, I wouldn't be ruling them out. I wouldn't be declaring it ours and I'd likely be arguing with cunts here that there are 21 games left to play.

If we were in Arsenal's place, and they were in ours, I wouldn't be ruling them out.

So I sure as fuck ain't ruling us out. There are 21 games left to play!

do we need something to spur us on like the PL charges they dropped on us last in February?

something to galvanize us, wake us up, us against the world, added motivation etc.

winning the treble was huge, wonder a bit what did it do to our hunger to get the one with the big ears over the line finally.

It did alot mate . Very difficult to cone back from a treble win and winning countless trophy’s with the same players to go again and that includes pep aswell . Can’t see one of our famous runs this season. And tbh if we don’t win the title then so be it because at the end of the day it’s only football and anyway next season we will be back . I also believe that this world club cup is coming at the right time .

Let’s talk in May. Hope I’m wrong.

Seen fuck all this season to suggest we’ve got what it takes.

We 100% have got what it takes. We have had most of the season, even in these draws in this odd run of games.

Whether the margins will fuck us or favour us when it matters, who knows. But we have quality above all rivals, and we absolutely have what it takes.

well, this is another fixture we won last year. overall now that means we are 12 points worse off fixture to fixture to last season when we finished on 89 points.

to finish on 89 this season now we would need to get 55 points from remaining 63. not too worried on 89 points as title can be won with less this season as lot more teams are getting decent results vs top teams.

but the 12 points worse off fixture to fixture is a worry. this is now a theme that we cannot beat teams we did last season not a one off.

even if we stop this now and only get same results like last year and not worse like so far, we finish 12 worse off thats only 77 points, not title worthy.

Everton away next game, will be considerably harder that this shit Palace was today. and we won there last season, could be a fucking draw or loss now.

Zero chance we are getting 89, possibly break 80 but won’t be nowhere near enough to win league, I just hope we get 4th
 
Hate to say it but the dippers are back on the PED’s (there’ll be back off and weaker next season, like last), have an impeccable home record, and have already played away at us, spurs, Newcastle, chelsea and Brighton. It’s there’s to lose
 
It has to be said we are somewhat a victim of our success, Palace played a 5-4-1 deep defensive block, our defensive line was 30 yards into their half. But and it’s a huge but, it’s pathetic how easily we have conceded late on in matches. I know I’m a bit of an extremist but too many happy bubbly people walking out of the match, I think many have lost their passion

Anyone would think we are 15 points off the top, we are not entitled to win every game, get a grip ffs

It's not being entitled It's being 2-0 up against a poor Palace team then fucking it up spectacularly. Yes we won the treble but it doesn't mean the players get a free hit this season , we've been bang average in the prem up to yet
 
as much as it pains me Cancelo would be much better on the right than Walker is with the advanced attacking positions he is constantly in. Unpopular opinion but Foden isn’t delivering on expectations, he needs to step up

Gvardiol may or may not be better than Laporte, Doku may or may not be better than Mahrez but they aren't at the moment. Kovacic will never be as good as Gundo.
Kev will probably not be as good as last year when he returns due to age if nothing else.

We've also lost Cancelo and Palmer.

So overall we look weaker.

What we really need is the likes of Grealish, Foden, Alvarez to step up and become the Silvas, Agüeros, Yayas et al. Not sure they can.
Then there's Bernardo who has given his all for City but we need more. He should be playing centrally.
