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

[Sir peace frog]

Southampton is the next game ,and that is all that matters, 3 points is a must, united can still get 84 points, so we need 85 not a point less or more.

Hand on heart we knew today was coming...it just had to be against those cunts and in an absolutely gutless manner...surrender.

If there is a god, he is undoubtedly a city fan but just like us, the cunts got a sick sense of humour and loves a bit of a laugh at our expense...

Roll on the next few weeks and us putting it beyond all doubt.

edit, btw, I said 81-85 points ....

we have just galvanised them for the rest of the season.

Southampton is pivotal now.....straight back to winning ways is a must ....anything less than 3 ts and utd could be within 8-9 points of us and then that gives them something to chase that isnt insummountable.

One game at a time as Pep says but anyone who thinks this title race is over needs to give their heads a wobble....we have closed down similar points gaps before......utd will see that as a challenge and something they can do

We lost to them in the EFL Cup in 2016
Lost 1-2 at home in December 2019
And drew 0-0 in December 2020

As well as the 2-3 in April 2018 when we could have won the league. Not a game that mattered in the grand scheme but by fuck it mattered on the day!

The league cup wasn’t our priority in 2016
we were well off the pace in the league in 2019
the draw in 2020 was the only one but we were well off the pace and no one saw the 21 game run coming

in 2018 was similar to when we beat them 2-1 at old Trafford in 2013, meant fuck all

it Seems to mean more to them now , like it did when we were shite

Well I'm glad I'll never have to be in the trenches with some of you lot.

Can see the rags going on a run now. We had them by the throat but did not squeeze.

This is the right attitude and I think we will. My guess is we will end up on 87 points, possibly less if utd fail to keep up any pressure and drop points in the coming weeks as we will in turn take our foot of the gas.

Two games before they play West Ham, win them and they're 17 points behind.

Are you serious? We have not overturned an 11 point gap? And even our 2012 title race massively hinged on the head to head. It is incredibly hard to overturn a +10 point lead when you have no say in it. It’s a hell of a lot of points to throw away in the last quarter of a season.. let alone the chasing team has to win every single game.

in fact has it ever been done at this stage? I remember Newcastle fucking up massively but can’t remember the standings with three quarters of the season played.

Plus.. Pep is not Keegan and Ole is not Whisky nose.
