Should Spurs be happy with filfth?
I am all for it.
this. we blew so many games last season that could've put us in fourth mathematically #spursyI think we should be happy with fifth. Do we want better? Of course.
Top four is occupied by teams who all pay a lot more money then we do, if we manage to break top four then that would be a ridiculously good over-achievement as we have shown in the past, we have been capable.
There were also so many games we somehow won that we had no right to win playing the way we didthis. we blew so many games last season that could've put us in fourth mathematically #spursy
Actually you just never know.there was a window when Woolwich and chelsea were in 'recession' during the 2010-2012 part of this decade, then later on manure and liverpool dropped out, there was always some gap for us to squeeze through to nail down a top 4 finish. but i think because of poor transfer activity, politics , the europa league..we have never been able to capitalize on it.Judging by the top 4's activity they are all much stronger compared to last season. I dont know how the season will unfold but i certainly hope we stop crashing towards march and dropping points to likes ot burnley, watford or whatever teams we should be getting points from
i agree with you, when Wenger leaves Woolwich i hope they do a United.Yes we should be happy with 5th, we won't get any higher. The next window of oppotunity will be when wenger leaves Woolwich, and even that's not a given as their new manager may hit the ground running.
We won't be playing cl for a long time, if ever, 5th is the highest we can achieve.
The best thing we can do as a club and fans is forget the fucking thing exists as it is of no relevance to us...concentrate on winning trophy's is what's needed.
