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

[Coatigan]

I would expect strong for Dortmund then 4/5 changes for the Semi final then a strong side for Villa then 3/4 changes for the final. What I don’t think will happen is that we will see Mendy, Ake or Torres in any of those games and Zinchenko won’t be in midfield.

Ake, Torres and Mendy won’t be seen again until the title is won unless injuries force his hand.

Possibly. Just worth pointing out though, Ake Torres and Mendy did not do anything wrong for the two goals conceded and lack of goals scored.

It's a lot of money for squad players.
We need to get better at keeping graduates or at least selling for a realistic fee.

Kelechi, Sancho, Garcia raised 33 million.

The 3 mentioned cost over £100 million

I think it's a fair point.

What is not a fair point is your example. At the time we got decent money for Kelechi, in fact the majority of the figure you quote. Remember it was more than a couple of years ago. We could do nothing about Sancho. He decided to turn down our contract and move virtually on a free with some cash because of his age. Garcia, very similar in that it was his decision not to renew after having his head turned and at the end of his contract and at least 4 CB ahead of him we are not going to offer the stupid money that Barca now look to have withdrawn. What would have been your plan to keep Sancho and Garcia?

Even if Utd win every game left we'll still get the points we need to win the league.
We're not bottling this now

Our biggest problem is not the team, squad, manager or backroom staff it is the sheer number of weak minded poster's and wums on bluemoon, absolute shithouses, quivering because we lost,imagine being in the pub when it kicks off with these people ,grow a fucking pair, we have a minimum 8 point lead, we will dominate every game, we will create enough chances to beat any team, we might lose some but we will win more than we lose, bring on Dortmund, get through that game then on to the FA CUP semi final, a great time to be a blue

Would anyone be prepared to suffer the remaining games in order to win the last game in the 94th minute and therefore win it on goal difference ?

Ake played fine
Mendy was negligent of his defensive duties time after time after time....how many times did they get in behind him....it was Ake covering numerous times in the first half.

Torres - finished his goal well but he was pretty absent for most of the game - just like Sterling and Jesus

Would we be at all surprised if City took it to the last couple of games of the season to clinch it, I wouldn't

Pep has some big decisions to make. IF we go through against Dortmund. We'll have Bayern/PSG in the semi-final before Palace and Chelsea in the league.

If Pep is bricking it half as much as some posters here. he'll have to risk KDB, Dias, Foden, Gundogan etc....before those games.

That's all part and parcel of being a blue and having been around to witness the shit times when we had a penchant for routinely shooting ourselves in the foot. The younger ones probably won't be quite as nervy as us older ones, but as for that bolded bit, well believe me you wouldn't want to be saying that to some of our lot despite the fact a few of them went into a bit of a flap after United won yesterday. There's absolutely no fucking correlation between someone thinking the league isn't sewn up yet with work still to be done, and whether or not that same person can hold their own if it boots off in the pub.
