Competition The race for top four.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Well at least that's one less team (and result) we have to worry about next weekend. They had the easiest fixture too (Cardiff at home)
 
With united now out of the equation and GD, this means that the goons would have to win both to have a chance of overtaking us, a draw at burnley is not enough to deny us, even if we lose next week.
 
Imagine relief in these players if Brighton get a result. That would lift them up before Amsterdam. I don't have high hopes, but it's woolwich, they can always fuck up.
 
So Toby will be joining a team with no CL football next season. I guess the 200k a week will soften the blow

Man Utd miss out on CL again. All that money, all that spending, what a clusterfuck
 
Brighton aren't very good. But then Woolwich can't handle pressure. Assuming we lose to Everton next week (not unlikely at all) I hope Woolwich only manage a draw and a narrow win in these next two games, whichever way round. That way, they miss out on GD, which would be the funniest thing.

This season and the chase for what used to be the pulling elixir of top 4 we are like a cat and 9 lives.

What I do not expect for one moment is that today will provide any relief. That's okay though because Huddersfield, Brighton and Watford owe us nada and so it's only their professional pride at stake. If like Bournemouth yesterday they are already planning the number of jars they will have when on holiday good luck to them.

So for me it's all on next weekend and the facts mean that the odds will still be in our favour until you remember no Kane and no Son.

But Leicester and Burnley are 2 of the 5 clubs you would not want to face on your last day.

Rodgers who I think is a better manager than Pochettino and Dyche will want to sign off next weekend with wins at their home grounds. No doubt, so therein lies hope.

But of course because we cannot even draw games (1 all season is another sign of how weak we have been) United could win both their games (likely) and overhaul us.

But in our hands it will be until it's 9 lives over.

I was with you all the way until you said Rodgers is a better manager than Poch. No...just no.
And whilst I'm exhausted saying it so many times, whilst we have lost too many games, we have won 23 games which I don't think is a sign of how weak we are but a sign of strength - don't you? At the end of the day it's the points that count not how you get them and if we do finish top 4 we've been strong enough to get there throughout the season. The last few weeks have been shocking, mainly due to an horrendous injury list, not because of how weak we are. Oh and Utd didn't win their last two games - wrong again (you did say likely).
