Last season Liverpool took:

6 points off Newcastle
6 points off United
6 points off Everton
6 points off Arsenal

They also took 6 points off each of the three teams who were relegated.

I'd be surprised if they matched that (including the promoted teams) this season, especially losing their second-best player in Mane.

I've gone for 85-89, but think it's more likely to be the category below that.

Not sure what the question is asking?
Does it mean how many points will the team that wins the league will get or how many will it need to finish above second?

Eg. In our 100 point season, we only needed 86 points to actually win the league.

It's second place +1 (or + better goal difference)

I think we'll challenge 100 but only need 95.
 
I think we will be around 92-93. We will gain the points we lost vs Southamptom, crystal palace but most probably drop some of those points vs chelsea (got 6 points last season) and arsenal (got 6 points last season).
 
Multiple Everton's haul by 3 and that should be enough
 
Chelsea? Go away, they won't make top 4.

High 90s this season. Chelsea and Liverpool look dangerous, United don't have a complete joker in charge and don't have CL football, Arsenal and Spurs look ready to challenge big time. Gonna have our work cut out.

I went for 85-89, simply because the idiots at FIFA stuck the World Cup right in the middle of the season. Even with our squad, it will be tough to make an early start, then have a break with some squad members playing many games for their countries, and a frustrated Erling Haaland keeping fit with Academy players. Of course all teams face this problem, but those with fewer World Cup players will have an advantage over the top clubs. They will spend the mid season break bonding and getting injured players fit again, and top clubs will try to start the season again on Boxing Day undercooked and knackered from the World Cup.

Think it will be lower this coming season. Lots of disruption and
the unpredictability that goes with that. It’s perfectly possible we won’t win it this season. Wouldn’t be the end of the world if we came back really strong next season. We can’t win it every season.

While I agree with the sentiment, I suspect someone will be hell bent on destroying that very reasonable expectation.
And by that, I mean both Pep and Klopp.
Sustained shock and awe is what wins the prem these days.
It really is bloody sensational if you appreciate the game itself.
 
Spurs, Arsenal, Man Utd will all be better this season. Wouldn't surprise me if we saw the league won on slightly fewer points this year.
 
Seems a bit low given recent seasons but with a World Cup in the middle anything could happen.

Has us winning it again but for the first time since Pep arrived I have us 2nd.

So straight away they’ve dropped 2 of these points they got last year.

Gonna be a much tougher league this year.
 
At least 90 anyway and that’s low going by our last few seasons standards! Lol ridiculous how many points consistently we have got in the last few seasons

Think it will be under this year, with the stop start I can’t see 2 teams getting over 90. Missed the poll but I’d say 85-89.
