Europa League kills teams. I remember under AVB, a couple of our tepid displays on the Sunday.
Playing in Naples on Thursday and then playing a league on Sunday is a disaster, particularly against a team that has had an entire week to prepare.
What a lovely weekend
Fluctuating fortunes, a good week for us in the grand scheme of things and we have to hope we don't have a 'down' week between now and the end of the season. Brighton are going to make it very very hard for us and West Ham, well its their cup final, they are going to be two very difficult games. COYS.
I guess the whole week was even better
If we take maximum points, we don't have to worry about the clubs below us, but, as others have said, you can't take anything for granted, especially at this stage of the season.Can’t take anything for granted at this stage of the season. Big big games this week for us, must take maximum points and hope they all still drop points.
Man Utd took a giant step into the Europa league today and Arsenal have lost two of their last three games to mid table opposition and only scraped a win against Watford who were without their top form player and were down to 10 men for 80 minutes, I have to say they don't fill me with trepidation and as for Chelsea, their results depend on one thing and that is whether or not Hazard can keep up his interest to the end. Take my Spurs tinted glasses off and I'd put Chelsea at the head of those three but I genuinely still see us as the best bet for third.
Could all be done by this time next week for top 4:
Spurs beat Brighton and West Ham
Arsenal draw and lose Vs Leicester and wolves away
United lose one of Chelsea or city.
Be great to have it done before Ajax.
