    At- each game being 1-0 It's 10 (- 5) --- they are only playing 5 games more, not ten! (At least, I hope they are not playing ten more - as they are becoming very boring when not playing the scum of Spain)

    Breaking 90 would be higher than at least 2 since Leicester (2021 and 2023 were both below 90)

    There's two ways of looking at it. Win it and then gas-off - or win it and feel the urge for 90 pts....

    but we are not in Europe so the team will likely thus strongly want to win the remaining 4 games if we beat spurs - particularly since we wont want to lose to either Chelsea or Arsenal.

    It was 10 games in total, 5 for each team.

    Interesting. It "feels" like we were not as strong in second half but the stats say otherwise.

    I get all my news form that Grey guy who is "never wrong"

    Him and Trump - that;'s all any good man needs..... :rolleyes:

    what is it about Arsenal fans and in-bred obnoxiousness.... It's a near endemic thing,,,

    Remember Piers Morgan moaning years ago about how it should have been Arsenal who had gone and gotten Klopp.... I remember thinking that I/we could have said the same about bloody Wenger in the 90s but I didn;t - we didn;t - because .... well.... normality of thought prevailed....

    That’s only because we played no one of note…

    That's right, we got to play Soton, Leicester, and Ipswich 6 times each and all the other teams only once.

    You forgot that when we did play those other teams, we refused to play away and insisted that we either get a penalty or the opposition a red card before 30 minutes. PMGOL are still making up the Diaz Spurs goal.

    There was something that didn’t sit right with me about Arteta’s mathematics. So a quick delve.

    2022-23
    City 89
    Arsenal 84

    2023-24
    City 91
    Arsenal 89

    So it’s true that we’ve won the league with fewer points than Arsenal got in the last 2 years, but that was with 4 games to go. We can still finish on 91 and the best they can do is 76.

    I know English is not his first language, but what am I missing? In what sense does he mean “with the points of the last 2 seasons we would have 2 premier leagues”. Which ones? Not the last 2 and looks like not this one either. Maybe he means if they add the points of the last 2 seasons together they would have won this year?

    By the way, 2 years ago we finished third with 86 points. So in Arteta’s parallel universe we would have 2 more PLs because that’s more than they got in 2 of the last 3 years.

    The biggest lie City ever told wasn’t the 115, no, the biggest lie City ever told was that they didn’t want Arteta to go to Arsenal.

    Arsenal finished 3rd with 19 points. In every other year of the Championship League group stage, 19 points would have won them the European Cup, to be fair.

    No, she’d be a threat to all good, decent Republicans and real Americans everywhere.
