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

[chaddblue]

I want us to beat Palace and the rags / dippers to draw

this would keep scouse out of the top 4 and would mean we can win the league ourselves the week after when we’d only need a draw v Chelsea to be crowned champions

What’s the latest on fans being back before end of season. Last I heard there was discussion of pushing last two games back a week to allow all teams to get one home game with fans.

Last but one game pushed back beyond 17th May - last game was already after it. So everyone gets a "fair" crack of the whip!

We all know Pep by now. He will always put out the best team he thinks will win the game. If you think he will start playing all the kids after we win the league, think again. He didn’t do it when we hit the 100 points and he won’t do it now.

Yeah but he was after the 100 points, as that was a record total and hadn't been done before.

I think Pep loves records that's why the League Cup was important to him as it matched the 4 in a row and the 8 wins matched the most by any team.
I bet he goes all out to win that again next season so the records are soley ours.

As for the kids it all depends on how the semi-final goes, if we get knocked out he might as well try a few once the league is won.
They have been training with the 1st team squad, so he will get to see what they can do when it matters. There'll be nothing to lose.

Can't imagine many of tonight's team being in the line up on Saturday win, lose or draw.
Still think there's enough quality to still manage a result against Palace though.

He did it at Barce. That’s how the likes of Pedro and Thiago were integrated.

Perfect opportunity to give a few minutes to the likes of Palmer, Delap and Doyle etc a few minutes. They also deserve it for having a superb league winning season.

Zinchenko, Laporte, Ake, Fernandinho, Sterling, Jesus, Aguero, Mendy, Torres isn't a bad second string really is it. Whether they get a result is a different question, but I'd be happy with sweeping changes.

Potential for a party at the etihad on Sunday if everything falls our way this weekend.

Just think, if we had beaten the Rags at our place this would all be over now.

Everything might have turned out differently if we’d beaten United.

We could have lost the next week, or two weeks’ running, anything could have happened when mindsets, attitude, line-ups, decisions change

So what happens if we win the league this weekend and everyone is on a social media blackout?
