There are a lot of historical records that are seriously at risk here from us - Many from the Golden era of football...
 
Pretty incredible when you think about it that if we win at West Ham and Southampton that we'd have only dropped seven points away from home in an entire league campaign.
 
If we do manage to get 100 points, this team will be remembered forever. When people talk about the best sides in English football, they will talk about City's 'Centurions' alongside Arsenal's 'Invincibles'.
 
I remember seeing that we're one of three teams with three players providing 10+ assists in a season.

Assuming there's never been a team with four, Sterling needs just 2 more from the last 4 games.
