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

[supercity88]

So IF we could win the next 6 against united, Southampton, Fulham, Leicester, Leeds,Villa ( all before LCup Final ) we would have 83 points total. united and Leicester can only get 81 and 80 points respectively if we have beaten them by then. What an incentive to keep this run going and in particular this Sunday's game.

The thing that sets Pep apart is that winning the league is not the incentive behind this run. It is just about having that hunger and desire to be the best and win every game regardless of who we play or what competition it is.

Pep will be making damn sure that even when its sewn up those levels don't drop. He will rotate 5 players here or there as he has done and expect the players to still fight for every single win.

We might want to see an academy 11 so that we are fresh for the CL but Pep will see the winning mentality as just as vital as fresh legs. I don't expect him to start resting players, that's just not him.

The title is done. I never thought I would say that before it was mathematically certain, but we don't have a challenger. Even if the rags were 2pts behind they'd be too limp to make a fight of it.

Ha. No city player in sight

To be fair, it may be about 2-4 as they know 1st wrapped up. Expect plenty of 2-8 tables from now

It’s from november mate when we were in the bottom half. That’s why it’s missing City.

Completely agree, we have put together a team of men/boys with both the right mentality and skill. No ‘I’ in team couldn’t apply more to any other team in the PL.
The day I see an articulate goal celebration by the team I’ll know we’ll struggle to get top 4

I see, we’ll obviously be front and center soon then ;)

Now only need 7 wins from 11 games.
C`mon you Blues !!

4 wins at most. Even 3 wins and 8 losses might be enough now.

100 days since we were 13th in the league.

If the Rags had been in our position would they have left them out?

Boys just wanted a challenge ;)

Couldn't agree more. He really does live by the ' one game at a time ' saying. He is so competitive and that becomes ingrained in the team.
