14, which will probably be enough for 6th though 3 of those 14 need to come from the last game of the season v Villa the quintessential 3 point 6 pointer.

Here it comes. I have us on 65pts BUT with Liverpool playing Spurs that means points dropped between them. We need a better GD though.
To save time click on SELECT NONE then click only from Man Utd to Liverpool.

I did the predictor the other day, and have us finishing in 6th with 64 points. Liverpool’s run in is incredibly easy, so have them in 5th and Spurs continuing their decline as they end in 7th.

Call it 7 as arsenal away and city at home we’ll prob get nothing…

Would take 4 wins from those 9 big time…

Nah a realist… Which bit are you rudely referring to btw?
Bit rude, but I presume his point is that we are perfectly capable of taking points off the top two. In fact, I'd almost go so far as they say that the team that does beat us from those two will probably win the league, because I don't think we'll lose both.

Im pessimistic with predictions as it sets my kind in the right place and anything else is a bonus. I always think about the budgets of these top clubs and think ‘how the hell are we competing with them?’ So often give them more credit than they’re worth. They have been the best 2 teams by a way though. Obviously hope I’m WRONG..!

How the hell indeed. Well we're not consistently competing with the top two in fairness. But there of 6 or 7 clubs with a bottomless pit of money and those two are the only two who are noticeably better. One of them got there in part by buying 2 of our players! But in a one off game, we can beat any team.

As an aside, the way we compete is no longer a secret, and it won't be long before other clubs move closer to our way of doing things.
For example, more reasonable wages and transfer fees, a separation of recruitment from management/coaching, and a reliance on modelling or something more sophisticated than a nod from one scout.

I hope the big clubs take forever to wake up to it though, as uncle Tony's business model relies on them shelling out big bucks for our players (after a couple of years playing for us)
