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

[BlueMoonAcrossThePond]

League is over.

Would be great to beat Palace then sit back and watch the rags fail to win therefore handing us the title. Even if they draw that means 1pt from 4 games is all that's required, but that we'd win on goal difference anyway probably.

Rest the lads for Tuesday and play the following team:

Steffen
Cancelo
Ake
Laporte
Mendy
Ferny
Doyle
Sterling
Torres
Gabby
Aguero

Does anyone know the situation with booking if we reach the final? Will KDB miss out of he's booked on Tuesday.

Just think, if we had beaten the Rags at our place this would all be over now.

Just think if we had signed Messi, Haaland, Xavi and Buffon as teenagers we could have scored ten goals a game while conceding none and we would have won the league in January.
But we didn't.

From the post match Paris thread it seems unless anyone gets a red they're safe for the final.

Yeah and if my Aunty had bollocks she'd be my Uncle!


Sorry, couldn't resist.

Dont believe so. Rules changed a while back to help avoid players missing finals, barring a red card....

Its difficult to disagree with this.... Apart from the “typical City” thing still in the back of my mind.....

Pep keeps saying five points

He probably right if we win 1 and draw 2 the 2 games we lose won't be enough for a turn around in goal difference.

He always states the worst case scenario Kaz and pumps up every team we play and in Manure's case he calls it as if they will win their remaining games.

There is a decent probability will be be champions this weekend.

there has been some decent money here in oz that we will and often the money trail is on the money but even if we don't whatever slim chance Manure had and by my table it was over well before then dropping points at Leeds sucked the life out of them as far as the premiership goes.

they are resting their key operators in League games now knowing that Chumps League unless they change the rules over the summer is secure and have a final they would like to win to play.

With the massive goal difference we have over Manure he knows even if Manure did win their remaining 5 games which they won't we need 5 points , they average less that 2 goals a game this season.

Do you seriously think Manure will win their remaining games?

Wasn't the question, whether 5 points is enough was the question.

They are in great form in the league , the draw last week was against their good run , cant say they wont win another four/ five

They have virtually booked themselves into the Thursday night cup final so they will either rest players to make sure everyone is fit for that or still go strong in the League as the final place is now booked.I think they’ll rest players now for the final personally as they are in the CL spots for next season anyway.
The League will be over in the next couple of games I reckon

With all the “outside assistance” they get, I wouldn't bet against it...

 

[Impeccable One]

Sorry, said before, say again, City win or draw (NONE of our key players should be selected for Palace), and don’t want PL over (mathematically) by Sunday evening. Keep the lads on their toes, no celebrating, and let’s leave the official crowning until after we REMIND Chelsea who we are !

Doesn't matter what they do we'll finish it.
