Going to be a tough game, i don't know what the mindset of the players is but i hope they see this as important as we do. Can't help think we're running on fumes.

Brooks, Solanke, Gosling and Adam Smith all face fitness tests. Given Howes comments earlier in the week it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that they’ll all miss out to go with long term absentees Cook, Daniels, Francis, Surman and Stanislas. Really no excuse not to go and get the 3 points here. Please god, let us get the 3 points.

Guardian online quoting similar Bournemouth woes ..

Doubtful Brooks (ankle), Gosling (calf), Solanke (hamstring), Smith (knee)

Injured L Cook (knee), Daniels (knee), Francis (knee), Rico (ankle), Stanislas (hamstring), Surman (calf, all unknown)

I've been thinking all season about how good Brooks is. One less worry if he doesn't play.

How has Bournemouth away become a big game for us, ridiculous position to put ourselves in but there we go. We have been horrendous to watch away from home recently, except City and Liverpool.

But here we are, lets do this, get some confidence for Wednesday. A win would give us all a good weekend and a positive mindset going into the Ajax game....lose.....I don't even want to think about that.

I share the frustration but we would have gladly taken the position if offered in August. 2 points and we are there - regardless, I am very confident we will win tomorrow and be very happy by 3pm.

Have a good mate who is a Bournemouth fan - he reckons Brooks is fine but the others will miss out. One other to really worry about is Fraser. Regardless, all being said, if we turn up with the right attitude the chances are we will win whomever we are up against in that Bournemouth side.

I considered painting my bedroom throughout this game, that's how much I'm looking forward to it :LOL:
Although I'm sure I will still put myself through the pain of another nervy performance!

You serious bud?
Yes. Getting CL for next season is pivotal for the future of the club. JJ and Poch have both indicated our transfer plans hinge on us having CL football and this summer is massive in terms of a refresh of the team.

OK, we could get CL next season through winning this season's CL, but the chances of that happening are slim at best.

Nah. Wednesday's more important.

1. It's the primary reason why we're in the CL.

2. We have another game against Everton in case we fuck up tomorrow. We don't get a CL semi-final third leg.

I don't think you can separate the two, I think if we win tomorrow we have a much better chance of beating Ajax. Positive feeling, momentum and less pressure as we've already qualified so we can just go out there and really go for it. So tomorrow is an absolute must win, have to go strong and rest key players if we are winning comfortably at any point.

Do you trust the team to not bottle if it was down to the last game. Cos I don’t.

How about they're both hugely important games, and both should be treated in equal measure.

Why does everything have to be a choice on here.

Winners fucking win and get on with it.

If we can't get motivated now as a group of players we never bloody will.

I really fucking hope we don't turn up and stroll about for this first 45 minutes, sick of that, and it all started when we went away to Burnley and played in our flip flops. That's when we started to dip badly.

Turn up with an appetite to win tomorrow and we will win I reckon.

Then focus for a massive effort come Wednesday.

Anyone else on here feel mentally fatigued after all the recent high profile matches we’ve played? These huge games cant be good for the blood pressure and I must say I’m feeling exhausted! Come on Spurs, clinch top 4 and get us to the CL final!

I have a good feeling about tomorrow and Wednesday.

With the way Everton is playing at the moment this is really a must win as I wouldn’t fancy us getting a win on the final day based on both teams form.
