Now I, like many of you, am struggling to pay attention to what's going on below us in the table. I've spent the last three days weighing up all the possible permutations of what can happen between us and Leicester maybe 100 times.

But let's just stop for a second and have a think about how much more we need to reach certain milestones. Let's celebrate quite how fucking phenomenal a season this has been, whether or not we catch Leicester.

Each of these is based on the presumption we maintain the best goal difference in the league. City have a very outside chance of overtaking our GD - add one point to anything involving them if you prefer.

We currently sit on 68 points.

1 more pt (69 pts) guarantees a top 5 finish, and a finish above Liverpool.

3 more pts (71 pts) guarantees a top 4 finish, a place in the CL qualifiers, and a finish above Man Utd.

4 more pts (72 pts) guarantees a top 3 finish (our first since 1990), and a place in the CL group stages.

5 more pts (73 pts) guarantees a finish above Man City.

7 more pts (75 pts) guarantees a top 2 finish (our first since 1963), and a finish above Arsenal.
