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

[Deleted member 77198]

In which order? cos if its lose/draw/win that last day could be murder if rags dont drop any points beforehand, even the most laid back on here will be shitting it, and it will hardly be a cruise prior to the cl final.

Cant help feeling we have lost a bit of momentum.

I think we’ll beat Newcastle, draw with Brighton and lose at home to Everton.

I think we’ll go full strength against Newcastle and then the last two games yesterday’s team (or close to it) will play. And we’re better away from home than at home.

If Maguire is injured they have a problem.

didnt watch the game except the last 10 mins...is that why Bailey was playing?

If it's still not won by Friday we will go full strength and batter them

Then we can rest players for the last two games

Agree with your reasoning but Leicester needed the win yesterday and got smashed by Newcastle....who we play next....If Pep plays anything but our strongest 11 and we dont get the result its on him

If the rags win the next two and Pep plays a weakened team on Friday then I think he needs to stay away from Manchester for a while

I’ve come to the reluctant conclusion that there are a sizeable minority of posters who seem to harbour some sort of frankly weird resentment towards city these days.
Willing us to mess it up. Talking united up whilst happily slagging us off.
Even Aguero has been getting it.

They’ll be gutted when we win the league by 8-10 points.

Pep led us to protect one point lead against liverpool two seasons ago not sure why ten points a bother now

If we beat Newcastle I dont care who he plays in the last two games....play the EDS kids that need some experience...Doyle, Delap, Palmer...give them a taste and Pep can have a look at how they handle the big stage....

Our last 4 games with our normal team have been 2 wins v Dortmund and 2 wins v PSG. Do you really honestly think if we need to go full strength v Newcastle, Brighton and Everton that we won’t get two points? Stop bloody flapping

It’s like some people are willingly being thick by ignoring this.

So is the plan to rely on United dropping points and keep playing as we are in PL?

 

[PragueBlue]

Agreed..and hopefully Pep does to

I'm certain it will be pretty much full strength regardless of whether the league is won or not by then. Players need rest but also need match sharpness.
