Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

[homer hotspur]

Could really do with Chelsea dropping some points today.
When you look at it objectively, you have to say Liverpool well deserve to be top having only lost 1 game all season and , if we do miss out, we couldn't really claim bad luck as we will have lost at least 10, possibly more, of our games.

And Everton have duly taken the lead

 

[Adam456]

The upside of Liverpool winning is that it keeps pressure on Citeh and means they can't rotate quite as easily

Even a draw would be very welcome. Don't mess this up Everton

Things looking up a little already. Now if United’s form could tail off.

 

[Shadydan]

So we're the only ones to bottle it when they have a chance to put the pressure on are we

 

[austinfh]

That's an excellent result. Plus Arsenal are playing Everton away soon as well. Let's hope they continue as they did today

 

[coys200]

Massive result for us that really puts Chelsea on back foot. 4 pts and + 8 goal diff. They will also likely go all way to Europa final. Also still have to go to Liverpool United Leicester. While we have the 5 winnable home games. Add in United form dropping off a bit and the Stadium ready and it feels a bit rosier ?

 

[dagraham]

I think a fit and firing Dele could be huge for us, I think he makes Kane and Eriksen perform so much better. Really hopeful that we can get a bit of form back and if we can then no reason not to be confident of securing Top 4.

We have to start defending properly. And stop the constant chopping and changing of personnel and formations from Poch.

They looked shattered against Wolves. Didn't show up at all.

 

[Lighty64]

Arsenal have got to play wolves haven’t they. What’s the betting the game is rearranged for the week before the semi final.

not possible as Wolves v Man U is the night before we open the new stadium v Palace

 

[slartibartfast]

Funny to think every Liverpool fan is gonna be behind Spurs when we play City in the league. Especially if we ruin their party when we play them.

More worried that our form has already tailed off with 1 point in 12!!

In all seriousness, it was a good result today and hopefully Poch has had a stern talk with the players during the break they've just had. The past 4 games have been appalling and needed to be addressed by all concerned including management.

Hopefully the stadium provides some fresh impetus and gets us over the line.

Thats a bloody hard game for Man U. I wouldn't want to play Wolves right now. They look mustard.

I think we slumped into a feeling sorry for ourselves situation.
Need to get something against Liverpool or at least avoid any stupid gift goals.

Oh I don't disagree but I think one of the reasons we have struggled defensively is that we have been so blunt offensively which mean teams are much more willing to get at us. Dele at his best is unpredictable and that bit of magic is what will keep teams back. At least that's what I hope

Only West Ham is a fixture I can say they'll win with confidence, although i expect them to beat this Chelsea team.
