What does getting 72 points achieve exactly?

But 72 points doesn't get 5th tho does it? Only thing that matters is league position... anyone would rather win the league with 80 points than finish 2nd with 90

Currently top of the 2017 form table. Great work, Koeman now needs to extend this over a season the same way the top sides do.

Just stared at the table. I really think we'll finish 7th. United and Arsenal have two games in hand over us. Liverpool are unlikely to carry on being poor for the rest of the season. Good news is 7th will likely bring us European football, if that is good news? Early start to he season, with games in July. Hope our under 23's are up to it.
We've played 28 games and have 47 points
We could still hit 72
If we do I'll be interested to see how Dave reacts
Personally I think he'll say the Martinez 72 points was better somehow, probably due to his team having more boss tekkers

What a guy
Assuming we finish 7th, which I think we will based on the games in hand and everybody's run-in, I think there's still some big psychological boosts that can be gained in the rest of the season and taken into the next. And such things have an even bigger effect on the belief of young players.
I think if we could really go for it and get a win away to them lot, and any of the others above us it could change the perception within the club of what's possible just before a hopefully big summer of transfers and Koemans second season.
And also, assuming he stays until next season, Rom getting top scorer would be a first for him and a first in a long time for the club.
So, sorry Dave. I think the rest of the season still carries some importance.

25 points from 10 games would be boss but I think we may be in Roberto Martinez delusion territory!
Don't you mean the sacred 72 is Dave's still successful bait? It never gets old.

That's a nonsense story about McCarthy.
He's playing games with O'Neill and Keane over McCarthy, obviously carrying on the feud he has with them from earlier in the season. There will be no injury to McCarthy.
