Bill 1,788 Posted April 7, 2021 no less we are that close, we need to grab it this time Pukki needs 5 goals to beat his previous goal tally of 29 league goals, and maybe grab the 'golden boot' as well Krul is one game behind Swansea with 16 clean sheets, 20 is our record (I think) Least goals conceded was 36 in 71/72 (42 games) - 28 at the moment so plenty still to play for beside this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The way we're playing, it's certainly possible but we have a few tricky games to play (Bournemouth, Watford, Reading and Barnsley). Trying to be balanced, I think we'll beat our previous record (94, I think?) but narrowly miss out on the 100. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,218 Posted April 7, 2021 Watford will be an interesting one, win that and the confidence in the squad will probably achieve it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rich T The Biscuit 562 Posted April 7, 2021 As I'm so popular at the moment I thought I'd add to your post Billy Boy, see if we can get one on to Page 2 😁 For the record don't think we'll get to 100, 2 more wins, 3 draws and 1 defeat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greavsy 2,398 Posted April 7, 2021 Happy to add to your cause RTtB. 100 would be nice, but a shame we can't beat the record now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bill 1,788 Posted April 7, 2021 our current points per game average would have us on exactly 100 points, and we have the ability to win the last six games whether we will, time will tell but if those games come anywhere like last night we will be Champions by a huge margin, and deservedly so Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coneys Knee 932 Posted April 7, 2021 This squad and management deserve to take each of those records and I sincerely hope they do. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And after what we all witnessed last night, I wouldn’t back against them! 💛💚 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Essjayess 307 Posted April 7, 2021 100 points is a big ask with such a high amount of top 6 teams to play still. As ive mentioned before 1 win 4 draws and 1 defeat will give identical stats to 2 seasons ago...27/13/6 and 94 points..it could actually happen given the teams weve to face. I would take that..it would give us Champions again most like. To me the most special factor in the stats Bill mentions is goals conceded...given the amount of goals weve shipped in the last few years and Daniel's almost religious philosophy for his topic of a solid defence then if we have a record breaking fewest goals in a season conceded then that would be an awesome record...not as headlining as 100 points maybe but a stat that would add to DF's status as one of the best City bosses of all time...he's that in my book already anyway.
