Prestwich_Blue said:League is going to be won with 81/82 points so they'll need 80 to finish anywhere near the top three. At the moment they can only get a maximum of 88 points so they only need to drop 9 points to have virtually no chance of finishing 2nd or 3rd. They've still got to go to Arsenal, Chelsea & Everton, as well as Newcastle & Southampton. We've also got to go to the Swamp as have Liverpool.aguero93:20 said:lifelong bvb fan reus who turned down city and bayern to move there? you should be quids in, I have 250 on at evens with my Muppet cousin (rag) that they're not going to finish in the top 2, reckon he'll end up doing a Fred done with that one.mancity dan said:Easiest money I will ever make.
Rag lad at work is adamant that Reus will sign for them before the end of the transfer window. I told him to put his money where his mouth is.
Let's (charitably) assume they win 2 and draw 2 of those seven games, which means they'll have dropped another 13 points. That means they can only get 75, even if they win all their other 11 remaining games.
I don't disagree with your conclusion, but I think they will win more than 2 out of the 7 games you mention. Going on form and on quality, you would be right - in fact they should lose all of them - but football never seems to work like that. For all we know they'll win 6 out of the 7, and I guess on balance I would say they may win 3 or 4.
But they will drop points elsewhere as well, so I do agree they absolutely ZERO chance of top 3.
