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

[mccity]

It's a pity to see such little faith in the team these days.


I'm confident this will be over soon.

 

[Odd socks]

When it was 1:1 I realized how close we are rather than how far away, as long as it goes back to 11 points on Wednesday it will be fine and soon they will be taking the " we deserve a cup for doing our best" trophy from the dippers

 

[55yr old teenager]

Fatigue will eventually catch up with them

People were saying that about Liverpool last season. It never happened, apart from the last few games when they had won it.

 

[Roachy]

Quite a few "it's done" merchants MIA.

 

[blue44]

Very frustrating
If pep had been half interested in the Derby instead of praising the rags and didn't fuck around vs Leeds we would be fine.

so fucking frustrating like you say

derby 6 pointer when it could all be absorbed and nowt to worry about

even 10 men leeds,nowt to worry about lads,bigger games ahead like an fa cup semi final

oh wait

some silly dick on here was predicting or saying we could win the league,and league cup on the same day a few weeks ago

i fkin hate arrogance,thats why I'm a blue

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

The gap is the same as it was in 2011 at this point but i trust city to come through, would be happy with the league title and the cup, anything in CL would be a bonus.

Need a strong performance with best available 11 in the next game, feck rotation

They still had to exit all other competions to win the league

 

[johnnytapia]

united still have leeds away, liverpool at home, leicester at home, villa away and wolves away. some difficult games in there. combined with 2 europa league semi's. surely they will drop some points!

They’ll win every league game

Official statement from PiGMOL ?

 

[Claytop]

Do we all agree that if it goes 5 with 5 to go that we’re actually in a title race, yes?

 

[SWP's back]

And so will we

Good job we are 8 points ahead then.

Not sure about anyone else but I’m entirely sanguine, smoking a cigarette on the balcony and enjoying a glass of red. As I’ve said before, those panicking will end up seeing the same results and outcome that I see at the end of the season, but I’m mighty sure I’ll enjoy the ride in more than them.

If flapping makes people feel better and is their way of coping then have at it. I wouldn’t swap positions with United for all the tea in China though.

 

[why me? Blue Manchester]

Im beginning to get a little bit anxious and nervous for the upcoming games, hope all goes well

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

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?

Yes. It’s 11-8 really as we can’t control what they do, only what we do.

 

[jaiguruKun]

They’ll win every league game

I think they'll win 5 and draw 1 and we need 8 points from 6 games to win the league. If we can't do that then we don't deserve to win it.

 

[johnnytapia]

Official statement from PiGMOL ?

Nope, I’ve been saying it for a few weeks whilst others posted that it was all over, that they’d never keep the run going. They have and they will; we need to win cos they ain’t losing

Leave them to wallow in their misery, mate.

Stick £20 on that 6 game acca and pay for your season ticket for next year then.

No thanks, I’ve never bet against city or for United in my life and won’t be starting now.

 

[Gray]

Im beginning to get nervous

It is the bloody Champions League that is starting to cast a huge shadow over our season. I hope the Club will consider it worthwhile at the end of the season.

Not enough people are considering this. If you were to ask United fans whose position they'd rather be in as far as the league title is concerned, I doubt many of them would be saying United's.
