The Title Race - 2024/25

How many points to win the league?


  • Total voters
    301
  • Poll closed .
Just got back home from Newcastle and whilst I'm disappointed that we didn't win it was another good away day.
The boys put a shift in but it wasn't to be today.
We've been in this situation every year where we all feel that things aren't going well......then look what happens.
It will go to the wire this year and we'll be well in the mix so no time for panic just yet.
 
I’m quietly confident about the League but can’t help worry about further injuries, especially when working with so small a squad. We’re the best footballing side and have yet to hit our stride, but I think to win it we’ll likely sacrifice both domestic cups and may exit the Champions League at an earlier than expected stage.

We are the best footballing side with Rodri in the team. Without him, and with several aging midfielders, it's anyone's guess whether we are the best indeed. I think what can save us is if the young players step up.

We’ve 14 points from 18 and Rodri only played 71 minutes, so I’m confident the others can get us close. As I said, if it is only the league, I’m quietly confident. However, I do agree that using the youngsters (Lewis/McAtee/Bobb) will be key to keeping others fresher for longer. We might need to go into the market in the window as well.
 
Think it will be peps best effort ever if we win it this year
Feels like that pretty much every season for one reason or another- opposition, our own desire, 4 in a row etc.
Rodri is a blow but nobody could field such a talented bench as that one we had today.
Pep is the absolute master at keeping the soup warm then, just as the customer places his order, he brings it perfectly to the boil so it’s piping hot and to everyone’s ultimate satisfaction upon serving.,

No gazpacho then…

Alternatively, we were poor vs Brentford before Rodri came in, and average vs Arsenal and Newcastle without him.

What gives me hope are 3 things: we have wonderful young players who might surprise the league, Arsenal and Liverpool might find it difficult to win more than 85 pts, and we may sign a good midfielder in January.
