In a normal season yes. This deason with a month off..who will come back injured...depressed etc..for ALL teams ..lottery this season

Assuming the world cup impacts all the contenders fairly equally then the team with the best manger, squad players will probably win the league. So probably us, we will almost certainly be in the best 4.

Do you really think Arsenal will be anywhere near the top at the end of the season? I’d be surprised if they get 75 points.

Will they fcuk they’ll drop like stone now the bubble has burst

We are currently on course to 88-89 pts.

We haven't play top 4 contenders but, at the same time, our rivals are likely to drop points at W Ham and/or Newcastle.

Last season, we dropped more points vs Palace than vs Liverpool. And we dropped as many points vs Southampton as vs Liverpool. Dropping pts at Newcastle and Villa doesn't mean we are doing worse than last season.

Must be Spurs - that’s all.

How many points will city get. There is the answer

Without doubt but WC will fk up certain teams more than most you'd think. Surely the odds will mean one or two lucky unscathed teams. How would playdrs comd back after losing the final in last 5 mins for example let alone injuries

They won't. They have a very good young team and are improving. Having Lokonga instead of Partey was a problem today, but they were the better team. If they buy a quality CM to replace Xhaka and also a RB who could attack, they'll be top 3 material.

They should be top 3 after £ they’ve spent recent years. Always think Arsenal get away with huge spend.

We are averaging 89-90 pts under Pep and are on course to 89 pts. I think we improved the squad from last season (it may be our best squad ever, the 18/19 squad was great but Ferna finished the season 34, Kompany 33, David 33, Sergio 31...I'd rather have Rodri, Dias, Haaland, Alvarez, Grealish, Foden and Cancelo than their counterparts from 18/19, but time will tell, might be wrong here: the 18/19 squad won the domestic quadruple!!).

In a normal season, we were likely to get above 90 pts. But the season will be more difficult than a normal one. So, we are not likely to get over 93 pts, but are not likely to drop below 86 pts either, imo, injuries permitting.

It's all about probabilities, nothing is set in stone.

You say that but then city will go on a 12 game winning run and it will be over by February. Hopefully.

Do you think any team can win 10 in a row this season. Huge ask for any team. Hope im wrong but 80 plus pts win i think.makes 10 on the bounce tough
