Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

[Seafordian Spurs]

Think a draw would be better. No way this tin pot v. of Arsenal is a Champs League team. Maybe even better if they won... *ducks*

 

[EQP]

So we're going to go to Anfield, to play a Liverpool side chasing a league title.

Our players will bottle it. The Anfield roar will see Dier play a ridiculous backpass.

I expect us to be 3-0 down within 30 minutes.

​

 

[E17yid]

We’ll find out a lot about the players between now and the end of the season. If we don’t get it we don’t deserve it. Looking at the amount of games we’ve already lost you could say we don’t deserve it now but luckily Chelsea and Arsenal have been worse, on the whole.

 

[ajspurs]

But we shouldn't be in this position hoping we get a favour or helping hand.

Oh I agree, but we have to face reality and this is the situation we now have to deal with.

 

[EQP]

Really like Nuno Espírito Santo and what hes doing at Wolves. Definitely someone we should have on the shortlist if/when that day comes.

Jorge Mendes client - so Levy will stay clear.

 

[shelfboy68]

Very very difficult to see us get anything at anfield another defeat looks obvious real shame how we have fallen away so softly, but then again I suppose it isn't that much of a surprise really.

 

[kaz Hirai]

Amazing we've lost 9 games already. Probably at least 10 if not more before the season is over.

It's like having the vintage Tottenham back. Need to get HP and Pony back on our shirts at this rate

 

[EastLondonYid]

Praying for Wolves to do something today. ?

Keep praying mate, it worked.!!

 

[Lighty64]

Just when they give you an ounce of confidence in them, they fuck it up again in 15 minutes. The talk of the team being mentally tough after the late winners etc. Bollocks.

There's something wrong with the mentality there. How we can lose after being ahead against Burnley, Watford, Southampton, Wolves is peak spurs. I miss the days of having confidence that we would came back from behind, or hold a lead. Our defence has been a disgrace this season considering the talent we have there.

We wasn’t in front v Burnley. v Watford that was right at the start of the season. The mentality tough being chuck around are forgetting they are also mentally exhausted also.

How no one can understand that this same team have had to play since the start of 2017/18, hardly had any rest and a lot of injuries. It is now taking its toll.

At least Chelsea dropped points today, and I’m sure they will drop as many as us over the rest of the season, I also think the same about Arsenal and Man U

Scum 1-0 up against manure

Well by this stage of the season, clearly not much worse. We still have to go to City and Liverpool. We may yet finish behind both Arsenal and Chelsea.

 

[Spurus]

A draw would definitely be the best result, it would still leave 3rd place in our hands. If we beat Liverpool then we can have a bit more breathing space, although not looking forward to that game tbh

 

[hutchiniho]

Well by this stage of the season, clearly not much worse. We still have to go to City and Liverpool. We may yet finish behind both Arsenal and Chelsea.

we have lost too many games against teams below us so we have more to worry about than just the top 2.

Every game at the moment is proving difficult. Dortmund 2nd half at home aside

We really need to get our act together.

 

[mil1lion]

Chelsea only played 29, we played 30 though.

Away at Everton next Sunday to bring it to 30. We could really do with Everton getting a result in that one.
I would love us to be top 4 regardless of the Liverpool result.

Oh yeah I’m not saying we won’t just pointing out they’ve not exactly been pulling up trees this season.

That’s why I said we’ll find out a lot about the players between now and the end of the season. It’s fair to say we’ve had a major fucking wobble. Now let’s see how the ***** respond.

 

[Blackrat1299]

FFS Gooners 2-0 up

we are 4pts ahead of Chelsea who just scrapped a draw at home, their game in hand is away to Everton which isn't a guarantee, they also have to go away to Liverpool and Man U, and they don't have that many walk overs.

Arsenal have on paper a good run in, but after today they only have 3 home games left, and are inconsistent away from home.

both teams are still involved n the Europa league, which will have it's toll

All the teams will drop points for sure, including daft points. But what is clear is that the quality difference between the four teams is paper thin.

 

[wrd]

I honestly, I'm going to do my best to retire from all forms of reading peoples comments on the internet because seeing Arsenal fans claim that dive is justice from last week, when they fucking dived last week to win a penalty. I honestly can't believe they feel hard done by from last week when they should have had a red in the first 15 minutes. Usually you think okay it's one or two fans, but I haven't managed to come across a single Arsenal fan who can look at it objectively and say both teams last week suffered from poor refereeing, be it in real life or on the internet.

 

[austinfh]

Typical that United create fuck all against us and score one chance on the break and de Gea is a brick wall against us, only for them to capitulate vs Arsenal, with several big scoring chances. Oh and not to mention de Gea giving Xhaka the entire goal to aim at.
