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

[blue b4 the moon]

I was in the 70-75 bracket but changed up a level just before the poll closed... 76 will be enough think they'll end with a win v Fulham & a loss of draw at Wolves.

Then they'll end on 73 or 74 so 70-75 would be right.

I've really enjoyed this thread. :')

It obvious to say it, but the league was done in early March. When Foden scored at Anfield, I knew the league was done and dusted. Next season will be a lot more difficult.

But they said this season was impossible last November and that Pep had come to the end of the line with us ;)

The scum is in much better form than we are, and if pep keeps his stubbornness to play our out of form 2nd team even against Newcastle I can see us losing then the pressure is really on, too many 2nd fiddle players out of form + a few of those players can't handle the big games, Sterling, Jesus, Mendy, Torres, Ake.

:)))

Because the title isn’t at stake and they’ve got fuck all of importance to play for.

And don’t say the EL Final, it’s the LDV Vans European Trophy. It’s the only competition a team in the PL can win which requires the best teams to not be part of it.

Plus you need to loose multiple games before hand to qualify

 

[Ballymagash Blue]

So the 5% were right. I won’t blow my own trumpet, but I’m sure some others might blow theirs!

Its actually 74 points now after Fulham drew at Utd which means we won the league when we beat Leicester City 2-0 on 3rd April.

The man who won it!

 

[WallyA]

I still think it was silly that people thought United would win, what was it, like 8 or 9 games in a row?

Especially near the end of the season with Europe and legs getting tired.

 

[BlueAnorak]

I so want Utd to lose their last game which would mean we actially won the title on the 13th of March when we beat Fulham 3-0

 

[Deleted member 77198]

We can finish on 83, 84 or 86 points. Our lowest or joint lowest Prem title winning points total. Actually only 2-5 points better than last season.

Disgraceful season then ;-)

86 might not sound like a particularly special points total on the face of it but if we end the season with the League Cup, Premier League and Champions League then it looks a lot more impressive.

United got 87 points in 2007/08 when they won the double and only 79 points when they won the treble.

 

[Sir peace frog]

This thread was a bit of a joke imo, how the fuck can you vote on something then be allowed to change your vote as the weeks and results change, it would of been better if your vote stuck now we are getting people trying to big up themselves saying they got it right, bit of a farce, in saying that I really did enjoy this thread it brought the best and the worst of bluemoon

 

[Uwe Already]

I was tempted to change to the 76+ but thought better of it - just a draw away from smugness

*smuggy smug smug*

i truly believe this season was the hardest season ever in the premier league ? not just because of covid-19 and no fans. but for the amount of games week in week out ? i don't remember the last free mid-week city have had. maybe it was the international break but again players had to play for the countries and even worst travel around the world and live in bubbles

so 86 points is a great total and being 12 points ahead of the rest. also in the past month city dropped points that was because of champions league football. so it shows how well 86 have been earned

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

It would have been more than 86 points had it needed to be. We definitely took our foot off the gas during the run in. It felt like a 90 plus season.

We would have pissed 95 if it had been required.

Edited the title it was only 74 our GD was +22 better.
