We need to win all 6 and they need to lose all 6 and utd need to drop at least 4 points
They might as well give us the Title now !
Literally the only way it can happen is if we win every remaining game and they lose every remaining game as the most points we can end up with is 85.
City are currently on 84.
They can draw one
They would then realistically have to lose by 2 or 3 goals a game.
Don’t think we’ll get 2nd. Needed Utd to lose last weekend but think we should get 3rd
You should have added that we win the FA Cup in the process
According to some that would compensate for not qualifying for the CL
I know a good Counsellor!
Horrible thought but I don't think we have to worry about this at this stage.
It's simple. If we beat City by any score and then win all our other games 4-0 and City lose all their other games at least 1-0, except one draw then we win the title.
I'm pretty confident.
You guys should be able to get top 4,even though Chelsea are slowly creeping up.I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Thanks for your reassurance, I feel much better about the whole situation now.
You scousers never learn do you? Finishing below us 9 times in the last decade has apparently taught you nothing.
Like us, Chelsea also have a game in hand on you. Unlike us, you have to play Chelsea in your penultimate game, so your lead is only 4 points on them if they win those two games. It'll be squeaky bum time for you if Chelsea make up any more points on you before you play them. If anyone should be worried about Chelsea (and honestly, no one should be because they're a mess) then it ought to be you, not us.
If we beat Chrissy's team tonight and Manure lose to Bournemouth, then there are 3 teams on 70/71 points and we have the best run in of the three. Despite losing to City, we can still make second.
I know people say second/third/fourth makes no difference, but for me getting second again shows that we are maintaining our position at the top (and makes for a nice pub question in 20 years time - "which team came second three years in a row before finally winning the Premier League in 2019")

Bit weird to have an Orc as your avatar on a football forum
3rd in 2015-16 I think, but would still make a nice question!
