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

[Claytop]

Actually next two must win with Chelsea after that.

OK I'm flapping
This is panning out a bit like 2011 12
Only difference is we don't play them.
Fortunately bar Chelsea the other teams won't have anything to play for
How on earth has it gone from 17 to 8?
Have they always had games in hand?

This was their easiest game left and they've been shite, no need to flap.

People keep saying they will drop points but they don't seem to be doing

from 17 points to 8. unreal

Nothing's really changed has it? Did anyone really expect them to slip up against Burnley?!

I think they're getting results and playing with no pressure because they know they're not actually in a title race, a bit like us last season post-lockdown. I'm not worried about them catching us at all.

They have had 2 games in hand for a while. We needed to beat them to keep it at a double digit lead. If we beat them the league was won. Now it is squeaky bum time for me

 

[bitterblue78]

They will win every game left

Had we won derby it would have been 14 and we would have been just 1 win away from win. Or maybe had we won derby and against Leeds we would have been champion already. We bottled derby made this close

West Ham can no longer catch us and Sheff United have gone altogether.
