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

[P-Nic85]

The odds on that happening is just under 16/1 for those that fancy a flutter

Is there actually odds for it haha

might be worth a tenner

Atleast we all have eachother if it goes tits up lol

14-8. We were 14 points ahead before the derby.

Yeah. I hadn’t gone that far back. Have they won every game since then?

You just do a four game accumulator and that’s what the odds come out at

We have a goal difference of + 15 better than the Rags , so surely its just ten points to win the league

Villa (mid table nothing to play for)W
Palace (mid table nothing to play for) W
Chelsea (playing for top four) D
Geordies ( will be safe from relegation) W

The Rags have

Leeds (mid table nothing to play for, but a grudge match) W
Dippers (playing for top four and another grudge match) D
Villa (mid table nothing to play for) W
Leicester (playing for top four) D

If Pep had played different players we would have beaten both the Rags and Leeds and the title would have been won, (can understand changes for the Leeds game for the Champs league but when he ommitted Foden and Bernardo agaisnt the Rags we lacked energy) , but now with the Rags riding their luck we need to finish the season strongly.

Goal difference isn't quite the non-factor you are making out. For United to overtake us, they would need to win three games. They are currently gaining around +2 per game. At the same time, we would need to lose three or draw most of ours. Assume three single goal deficits for us, and that's nine of the fifteen goals made up. Throw in another possible Southampton scenario, and that's our GD blown away.

Edit. I don't see it happening though.

Myself and every bookie in the land agrees

After the derby I bet £50 on them at 200-1. It’s pure insurance: You hope you never need it, it can never replace what you’ve lost, but can come in handy. It’s making me a bit less anxious. Only a bit mind but money well spent.

Anyone who thinks this is over is a dick.

I think if we end up relying on goals then that 15 would have gone down to +2 or 3 because they would have won there matches while we draw or lose

 

[Claytop]

Yup, which is why that result was such a poor one. They’re form going into that wasn’t great I don’t think and even a draw in that and I think it would be all over already.
