What points tally will win it next year

[sean]

With us being top goalscorers, one of the best defensive units this year and with us beating the 2 main rivals home and away and still not winning it, I'd wager any advance on the 83 will do it. What say others?

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

87

 

86 would only have won us 3 of the last 10 titles

[Rory Fitzgerald]

I dont know how many points will win it, but its clearly on !

[Chili Palmer]

I think the biggest improvement since Feb/March is that we are beating lower teams with such ease, do that and the matches against the other big four are less important. I think 90 points next year should be our target.

[Knox_Harrington]

We need to have the capability of ninety. At no point this year have I thought we could get ninety.

[Bigal]

114

[Jarg Armani]

We've got to aim for 90, but it might not take 90, depending on how Chelsea do.

 

Would rather it was a 3 way thing next term, i never felt the 2 horse race would suit us this season.

anything over 90 wins it - TBH most teams getting 86 (hope we do) win it

that's ne season completely f***ed already

86 wouldn't have won it very many times (recently).

 

but it's a very high tally for 2nd

it'll be a record for 2nd, if we get it

[DJS]

Given that no runner up has ever got 86, every PL winner would still have won it with 86.

[Coyler]

86 with 6 of those being from the eventual winner has to be a very unwelcome first.

True, but that ignores the fact that the team coming first nearly always gets 87+

Yes - anywhere closer around the 90 mark will do the job.

[John am Rhein]

If Newcastle go down, 85, if Newcastle stay up 88.

Stop it. you're hurting my heart.

[fyds]

[Rimbeux]

90

[Gravy]

Whatever we get because I am absolutely convinced that next year we will win it!!

[Jim D]

To win 27 games minimum......90pts.

[matty]

I think it will be a strange year and 40 points will be enough to win it. Every other game will be a draw, but we'll beat the mancs at Anfield to secure the title.

except that Man U got 88 in 1994-95

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

42 games. Equivalent to 80 now on a points-per-game basis
