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

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Would say between 82 and 86 points.

I just want to see us beat a top six team away from home again and put five wins on the bounce together.

We pretty much have to replicate our 'poor season' from last term and that would be enough to win it.

So losing no more than nine and after the draws we have already had.

85.

Might adjust my prediction down a bit - 25 points from 12 games is what, about 80 points pace?

 

[Ban-jani]

I think anyone with 80 points this season will win it and maybe comfortably.

Said 86 a month ago I’d be happy with.

I'm going to go 79 as I don't think it's an ordinary season with plenty of injuries. I also think there's a lot of challengers who might get to the middle of April before dropping off - probably most of the top 9 are all capable of getting points off each other.

Looking at the bottom of the table, I suspect it might require something like 28/29 points, to stay up this year as well!

I agree. It's had the feeling of an old fashioned season.
Checking back to 1967/68 season, we won with 58 points in the good old days of 2 points for a win. We won 26 and drew 6 = 84 points, winning by 2 clear points after United lost their final game at home - we won our last 4 games.
I was 11 back then. I remember it being great, but, i don't remember losing anything like 10 games, which we did.
Anyhow, i think a similar number will do it. I don't think we'll lose many more, and think we are slowly turning a corner - winning whilst still finding our feet. We are the ones to beat, I believe.

Just Liverpool worried about with salah and mane plus the fair referees they they could get 90+ points hopefully they’ll tail of.

Anything above 85 will clear out any pretenders, anything under that and it’s up for grabs

I’m going low... 76!
