Tbf the team can't go out to lose and Ange can't come out and say he wants us to lose

It will undermine everything he's trying to build (or not build depending on your viewpoint)

The manager and the players have to go out there to win

Doesn't mean the fans should also want that
All that, and the fact throwing games is technically match fixing. We could end up in deep shit if it's obvious.
 
All we need is a point against already relegated Sheffield United. If we can't get that, we don't deserve to be in the Premier League, let alone the Europa League.
You'd hope so.
And even if we lose the next two, it still needs Chelsea and Newcastle to win both their matches. 6th is still Europa too.
6th isn't necessarily Europa. There are explanations of the various perms dotted around the internet.

5th IS definitely Europa.
 
Yeah. 9 and a half. Don't forget the half. The half is important.








...unless it is the first half under Ange.

Being mocked for not getting top 4 isn’t a thing, nobody gives a fuck.

Being mocked for handing them the title will live on forever. I’m actually amazed this is even somewhat a debate on here, every single spurs fan I know in real life is completely on board with us losing this game.
It's because we think it better for the development of this Tottenham team to win against one of the best teams in the world, rather than lose. I would have thought that, even allowing for the "fans will never live it down" perspective, you could see there might just be some truth in that for professional footballers?

Professional footballers have a profession because of the fans. The game is what it is because of the fans and the rivalries that exist between fans.

Losing one game against one of the best teams in the world happened won't harm their development.
 
Bissouma out means at least 3 academy players (+Skipp and Austin) in the squad.
Moore, Scarlett and would poss have been Santiago but he played ET yesterday and looked cream crackered at the end. Dorrington went off injured. Not sure if Donley is injured?
I hope Ange does not put another GK on the bench.

Would Arse fans want their team to pass up possible champions league football to stop us winning the league?

It's small club mentality that. Half of you sound like my non-league supporting mate who hates everyone in the world apart from his team. They all need their legs breaking etc, blah blah.
