Other less sexy possible points finishes we've never had previously: 52, 65, 66, 67, 71 Had we always had 3 points for a win, 1912/13 and 1921/22 would have been 69 point seasons. If you standardise performance in each of our top tier seasons by making it 3 points for a win and then proportionally adjusting total as if a 38 game season, a 69 point finish would be the joint 14th best season of 108 top flight seasons in our history. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm all for 5th 6th and 8th. Ah but what if 8th then gets us into the ECL? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We never win at Old Trafford, but I'm backing Emery to do the double over them this season, or at least get a point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A slightly lower total of 67 points would be our best PL season ever, fractionally beating the 38-game-adjusted 1992/93 season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had Spurs dropping away 3 points behind us, Liverpool and Brighton 2 points ahead us. 7th should be very achievable. Then if we beat Liverpool and or Brighton we should be finishing ahead of them. I predict we'll be 7th going in to the last game, and beating Brighton to claim 6th. Liverpool having a bit too much and a comfortable game against already gone Southampton means they're 5th for almost sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then CL well that’s the ultimate prize for us. Trophies and Europe are on offer and I want them all. It’s been too long. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
