Match Day Thread V Leicester City

I don't think there is any coincidence that the team has dropped off at the same time as Zobo. He's key to the midfield energy levels, he leads by example.

 

We have that chance next week.
Arsenal's max is 81.

 

94.

 

And Arsenal have still never achieved more than 90 PTS and that was in their invincible season.

On two occasions we've gone above 90 PTS ans didn't even win the league those 2 times!

 

Arsenal play Palace before us if they lose we win it there and then right?

 

Yeah, 90 is just a target to win the title.

As we grind towards that it adds more gloss to this history books.

Anything over Leicester's 81 is good.

Beat spurs and we hit 82?

 

Yup.

They won't.

Palace have the cup se I next week and will play reserves.

 

And 82 wins it. I'd like us to get more (I said 87 months ago) but in all honesty I'll just be satisfied that we've won it.

 

Unless arsenal lose midweek

 

I hope if we do win it on Wednesday or next Sunday that we put on a good show for the last few games.

Be good to see fringe players get some game time as they’ll have a point to prove - Quansah Elliott chiesa jones.

 

Elliott didn't miss a pass today did really well.

 

they haven't scored at home since December

 

really under used imo

 

We don't need anything. We've already won.
Arsenal are bound to lose a game or two.

Don't mind winning every remaining game mind you.

 

Just shuts up the usual suspects, they act like football changed at some point where 95 or above or lfc are ****.

In 30 years of 38 game seasons only 12 are 90+

1995-96 Manchester United 82
1996-97 Manchester United 75
1997-98 Arsenal 78
1998-99 Manchester United 79

2022-23 Manchester City 89
2023-24 Manchester City 91

It will be the usual "worst season ever" and 'won by default' crap from the copeage crew.

87 would actually be the average over the history of the 38 game prem. It has gone up since oil state money was let in obviously.

So really we are not only 3 points from glory. We are 8 points from shutting mealy mouths.

8 points in 5 games is easily doable if bothered.

 

We'll have to see when it's won if we play with more freedom or if we can't really be bothered in the final few games.
Nothing will shut the "worst ever PL" brigade up.

 

Genuinely
I really could not give a flying **** what anyone else thinks
Potential for the Premier League to win all three Euro Trophies
Clearly depth to the league - in fact atm we are the anomaly
As I have said before - work with loads of Utd fans and Tbf to them not one has discussed that topic
Oddly the footy doesn’t get discussed much

grassroots does lol

 

Yeah, lots of ManU fans seem to have lost interest in football.
Bit like their team.

 

PS... There are only 11 with 90+ in your list

 

The more of this the better tbh, it shows the hurt and bitterness
