The Fish 10857 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 It's taken, on average across the last 10 seasons, 92pts to win the title. If we maintain our 2PpG, we'll end up on 76pts. To get to 92pts, we'd need 2.7PpG for the rest of the season. That's 4 wins and a draw from 5 games. For the rest of the season. The top 8 can still get to 92pts, but Liverpool, Brighton and Chelsea would all need 70-71pts from the remaining 24 games. Basically, they'd need to win every single game. If Arsenal maintain this form, they'll end up on 100pts, Man City on 87pts. So Arsenal can have a wobble and still be on course for 92pts, Man City are within touching distance, but the rest of the league would have to significantly improve their form to come close.

Worth adding to this that Arsenal have achieved just over 2.6 points per game so far this season and they've had an unbelievable start. We'd have to better that for the rest of the season to get to 92. That's what 2.7 PPG looks like. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if people stopped acting like children, I'd stop having to explain real life to them like they were children. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We scored 44 last season and we aren't even half way Last year at this stage we had scored 17 and conceded 30. To go a bit Fishy that's scoring 1.1 goals per game and conceding 2.0. This season we're scoring 2.1 goals per game and conceding just 0.7. That's a per game swing of 2.3 goals in our favour, absolutely incredible. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7030 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 We've got Isak and possibly Maddison or Trossard to add to that yet. CM and LW have room for improvement in contributing to team goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t this 2.7 figure only come into play if Arsenal maintain current form though?It’s fairly obvious to me that on their current form we’d need to exceed what they’ve done so far to catch them and pass them seeing as we’re 7 points behind them and they’ve got a game in hand, which would be nigh on impossible for the current NUFC. We’ve both come to the same conclusion. Sorry if you and Dave need a spreadsheet for that 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
