Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

[GMI]

So what was it decided that we call the equivalent of st. Toteringham(sp?) day?

We decided not too as we’re too classy for that.

Amusing from Leicester fans;

The home fans at the King Power Stadium sang “Tottenham Hotspur, they’re laughing at you” to the traveling Arsenal supporters.

 

[King of Otters]

If we cant beat Everton or Bournemouth we dont deserve top 4. Rather Utd win here for a chsnce Arsenal and Chelsea both miss top 4.

Although, in all honesty, no one from 3-6 deserves CL football next season at the moment.. Everyone’s doing their best to avoid it anyway.

We just lost at home to a team who had previously taken one point away from home all year.

I’ll take all the help we can get in terms of getting over the line for top 4.

I don’t care how we do it. Just get there, and rebuild the squad for next year.

 

[dagraham]

The good news is whatever the result is later it will have some benefit to us.

We are incredibly lucky that Arsenal are terrible this year. A Chelsea win and we only need one win from our remaining games to guarantee top 4.

the same thing can be said for Arsenal and the others around them though. they are lucky we have been so poor this season that's given them any hope

Then if a miracle happens and Arse win the Europa we miss out if we are 4th

That is wrong - Unless Liverpool and arse win European finals and Liverpool get a points deduction in the league that takes them outside the top 4

 

[idontgetit]

Looool. So on the Guardian site I saw that Arsenal had just smashed Brighton 4-0 and I got even fucking saltier about yesterday thinking it had given the ****s a load of motivation and they'd jumped on it. Only they weren't playing Brighton today were they, their womens team was. They actually got smashed 3-0 by Leicester

This top 4 race is turning into a sketch from the Chuckle Brothers.... From me to you... No wait... You to me... and so on.......

 

[hutchiniho]

Only pity is If we won yesterday we'd already be gauranteed top 4

Exactly this. All this debating different permutations but just win our own games and we'd have been set a long time ago. Small squad, a very average bench recently and a knackered bunch of players however does mean I'm willing on a different bunch of teams each week.
It's a good job the rest are as bad or worse than us right now.
For me a Utd win and 3 points vs AFCB and that's about it. Chelsea, well Hazard is the strongest for me, so keep them pegged back.

 

[SuperSpurs69]

These last couple of weeks have really had the football gods looking after us. Peeved after yesterday's result but we've got to win the next 2 games. If we are to consistently challenge in the league and champions league then we need to bin the cups off due to our squad size, as much as it pains me to say it.

 

[Mate]

Apparently Jamie Vardy is having a party?

Difference is we're allowed to come this time

 

[HildoSpur]

Why? I would rather Manu as Chelsea is too close for my liking

Because it knocks Utd out of it.

 

[Lighty64]

Fair enough, I much prefer this scenario as it involves the least amount of effort for us. I knew Arsenal would struggle today but expect them to win final 2 however.

I don't know if your watching the Burnley v City game, but if you aren't I can tell you now that Burnley won't roll over for Arsenal. they have nothing to play for unless Dyche (a Liverpool fan apparently) has had them step up. They are not a walk in the park for Arsenal

Agree. On a side note, how many times does that prick Bernardo Silva get to blatantly push people in the back before a free kick is given? It’s just so blatant

 

[fortworthspur]

Im not worried at all. This team will do whatever it has to to qualify.

I literally am

 

[scat1620]

Idris Elba on the telly in every ad break. I hope he's been watching Sky today as much as he's banging on about in the ad. #Stringergottagoyo

 

[Blackrat1299]

I think I would like Manure to win. That means the three below us are a minimum of 3 points behind and we have a better GD. 3 points from 2 games would give us 3rd, I cant see any of those three scoring 8 goals or more to beat our GD. I am such an optimist. I hope my maths is right!

They'll always use this against us if and when they finish above us... So we should find an apt name.
