Re: how many points do you think we'll need from these 6 games?

70 will be enough for 4th, said it all along.

Keep ticking them off but we now need W3 D2 L1 or W4 D0 L2.

Personally can see us getting 13 points from remaining 6 games to finish on 72 and comfortably in 4th.

9 or 10 should be enough, but we should aim for 18.

If you can be bothered reading through a whole lot of waffle, I reckon it'll be this:

70 City
68 Villa
67 Liverpool
66 Spurs

One game at a time as they say. Putting it simply, the biggest game of the season right now is the Brum game. With spuds not playing arsenal til next weds I believe the pressure will be too much for them if they are playing catch up and were four points in front.

Fucking come onnnnnnnnnnn !!!!!!!?

Agree with this.

All that matters is the next game and that is the mentatlity Mancini will be enforcing.
The Brum game is the most important.

But to go along with the OP I think the 2 must not lose games are Villa and Spurs.

The way the players celebrated the first and second goals at six finger land told me that they are not letting the expectation get to them, so I am feeling very confident.

There is nothing to persuade me not to believe that we will win all of our remaining games. If this happens then it will be a season where we could have won the league but for all those draws under Hughes!!

Re: how many points do you think we'll need from these 6 games?

Assuming that Spurs are our main rivals, i think we need 11 points from 18. 70 would be a great achievement, but it will almost certainly mean a last-day win at West Ham, who may need a result to stay up. They'll win at Burnley, and against Bolton at home, and have a great record here.

Liverpool can get a maximum of 70 points so ide say we need 12 more points from last remaining games

Hope it doesn't but you are right to not rule it out!

Well its 6 cup finals.

I have said all along that 70 points will seal 4th so we need 11 from 6 games, difficult? Yes, impossible? Far from it!

The most important game is the next one against Brum because Spurs dont have a league game this weekend. For weeks and weeks we have been playing catch up with a games in hand and playing after Spurs. Much to my pleasant surprise we have shown we have the quality and more importantly the bottle to stay in the hunt. Lets see whether Spurs have the bottle and quality to play catch up now the boots on the other foot, lets make sure they are 4 points behind us by the time they have to play Arsenal next week! It will be much easier going into derby weekend if we are 3 or 4 points clear!

Nobody has wanted to hold on to that 4th spot all season, we have to show now that we want it and go on and nail it! Its ours for the taking!<br /><br />-- Mon Apr 05, 2010 8:59 am --<br /><br />

Liverpool wont get anything like 70 points! They have played 33 games and averaged just 1.66 points per game, why anyone believes they will all of a sudden start averaging almost double that over the last 5 games is beyond me! I keep hearing from the media how Liverpool are on a decent run and still in the hunt yet Spurs and City are actually continuing to pull away from them points wise.

I would suggest the very best Liverpool can hope for given how they are playing is another 10/11 points and that is me being very kind to them so roughly 65 points for them. If we cant pick up another 6 or 7 points from our remaining games then quite frankly we dont deserve Champs League football!

Re: i think its gonna come down to goal diff!

It could be the greatest last day of the season ever.
Can you imagine Chelsea, Norwich, Arse all going for the title on the final day, City, Spuds, Liverpool, Villa all going for that 4th spot with 3 teams playing for 4th place playing relegation threatened teams!!!
