I think for 3rd you will need 72 points to be guaranteed and i think anything above 68 should get you there. For champions league football, which you have all but guaranteed i think you will need about the same, because Tottenham and Newcastle are both locked on 59 points. Tottenham will probably pick up around 9 points and with Newcastle on form, but a tough run in, i see them getting about 9 aswell.
I thought 70 points should secure 4th (still do) the way this season is panning out. Sod third though, I want 1st. Only a 25 point deficit to smash in 5 games.
they will have to concede a lot in 5 defeats, and we have to score a few in 5 wins. Currently 25 different - so 26 wanted. Why not?
As they keep losing the GD comes down so we'll have to keep winning and winning big. QED amigo, QED I bet this was what Arsene had in mind all along......
You know it! We're performing well at the moment in part, no doubt, due to a lack of pressure and expectation on us. Classic Arsenal
If Manure lose each game 2-0 we have to get 16 in our 5 wins. If that happened (Manc winning 2-0 vs Manu) Citeh would only be allowed 2 points from other games, and we would need about 30 to overtake on goal dif...... COYG.
vs Stoke - 3 points vs Wigan - 3 points vs Chelsea - 1 point vs Man City - 3 point vs Everton - 1 point 11 points = 70 points total Newcastle are coming to the CL with you
Actually, if Ivanovic gets a ban extension for frivolous appeal, he'll be suspended for 4 games and miss the match against us, so you might be right. One of their best players.
72-73 points will secure 3rd. 3 more wins out of 5 will do for us. I think either Spurs or Newcastle will pick up another 12 out of 15 left, giving them 71.
Even 2 wins and a draw should do it, but I'm confident we will do better. Spurs will continue dropping points.
