I think its Woolwich and Villa who are most beatable - and 3 points above us
Wham 5 points below and ManU/Brighton 8 points below, so we are closer to 3rd than closer to any of those below us

You can see it coming a mile off. He'll be fit for the Chelsea game because of the magical medical facilities.
Villa drop points and we can replace them in 4th with a handsome win
There’s really no excuse if we don’t finish in the top 5 and we really should be passing Villa

Think the top 3 will remain as it is. 4th more than attainable given Villa are prone to wobble and are not as good as us. No chance of United, Newcastle or Chelsea making a surge. They are too far down the table and don't have it in them to win enough games.
Not sure I agree on Chelsea, maybe if we go 12 ahead today but they could be 6 behind tomorrow in which case of course they will hunt us down
We could be level on points with Woolwich by the end of the weekend. They're not out of sight
The goons have a horrible knack of winning games even when they're shit.
Got to take barest minimun of 4 points from Brentford and Everton, then let's talk what's possible.
And 7th is the lowest finish that would be acceptable.

Well, if they beat Liverpool, we'd only be 5 points off top in that case. So it's a win win aslong as we get 6 from our next two
I suppose if you really believe we have a chance of the title you would want the goons to beat pool so as to keep the points tally down at the top.If in my opinion we won't win it then a win for pool is the preferred outcome .
Do we want Woolwich to beat Liverpool?
Draw and both dropping points works for me
Mix in red cards, injuries and maybe a black hole opening up and even better.
Just a win by 1 goal would have us 4th. Handsome win would be nicer, though.
Spurs back in 4th place on 43 points from 22 games (just under 2 ppg)
- Ahead of Villa on goals scored in 5th place
- 8 points ahead of Wham (but they have game in hand) in 6th place
- 11 points ahead of Newcastle, Brighton and Man U (but ManU have game in hand) in 7th, 8th and 9th place respectively
- 12 points ahead of Chelsea in 10th place.

Realistically I think third is the target ,if we can finish a close third that could really give us something to build on for next season with a few quality additions.

47 scored, 23 goals to go, 1.43 goals per game.
Our league top scorers;
12 Son
8 Richarlison
5 Kulusevski
3 Own Goal, Romero, Maddison
Noticed the guy thinking I was deluded & mocking the idea of Richarlison scoring 15 goals has had his account deleted. Lol.
PL GD 47 - 33 or net +14 GD
Ave so far (22 games) = 2.14 goals per game (amazing given Maddison creativity absent for 10 games)
Expected goals over 38 games is 81 goals, a very healthy return if we get there !
