Depends what posters have voted on. If you have voted on how many will the winning team get then I can see 86- 90 is possible, for us anyway. I voted on what will the second place team get, can’t see that being over 82 so that would enough to win it I’d expect even if only on gd. Meaning we would need about 12/13 wins and maybe a draw or 2 from 18.
 
Were there 42 games that season or had it been reduced by then ?
Yep, so probably 6ish defeats in new money. It was useful, for me at least, to cut out some of the points noise and actually say that City and Liverpool and possibly United are the only team on track in terms of the L column. Clearly that isn't everything, but if Leicester, Spurs, Chelsea, Everton did win it they'd probably equal or beat the most losses for a winning team.

I thought this had some interesting stats to compare and contrast where we are currently at with earlier PL seasons as well. https://www.insure4sport.co.uk/blog/the-best-and-worst-premier-league-winning-teams-of-all-time/
 
Every game's worth 3 points but there are wins and there there are 6 pointers.

Clearly the pool game is one such; if we avoid defeat we'll be comfortably placed. However if we assume the points are in the bag against Burnley then we're in danger of becoming as giddy as nited.

The scousers are the real danger as they've been for the last 3 years. We need to take each game and each opposition on its own merits. Don't be arrogant like either of the red clad fools.

Although the CBs that pool are signing seem very underwhelming they're still a cut above the rest of the league.

Titles are not won in early February and there's many points to play for. I think we're in the box seat but both reds and Leicester are capable.

I did feel it would be mid 80s that would take it and that's still the case.

The defence and midfield look full of options and once Raz and Gaby are back scoring we'll be stronger . To say nothing of the greatest striker this league's ever seen on his way back. And mr king of assists soon! Don't be sloppy grind out wins and ignore the flatulence of the media.
 
This will be the defining week when it comes to how many points will be required to win the title.

Depending on how results go over the next seven days, it could be low 80s that’s needed to win the league, or it could spark another huge winning streak from both us and Liverpool who take each other to the wire and it be the high 80s that’s needed.
 
1 more point or 1 more goal than any of the red shite will do me. Big week ahead. Draw at klanfield will do as-long as we best the racist Inbreds.
 
90 points , we can afford a few draws but we need to remain unbeaten for the rest of the season , if we can extend this winning run to 15 games i dont think any other team can live with us , we still are not free scoring but with Aguero on the way back that has got be a positive.

I thought 86 for the last 3 months.
Look at the table it would mean Liverpool and the rags would have to win 16 games out of 17 plus a draw! They ain’t doing that are they capable of winning 15 out of 17? Maybe doubt it so it 86 from me but lower will probably win the league.
