With man city losing to Southampton the points gap between us and 2nd place is 5 points and 4 points between us and the arse. Can we get 3rd, 2nd, hold onto 4th or do you think arsenal or Everton will catch us?

Personally I'm looking above us

Difficult one

It depends if Bale stays fit and if Adebayor can step up for 13 matches. If those two things happen, then I think we'll get fourth

I doubt we'll get 3rd or 2nd though, because I think Chelsea and City have too much going forward

5th. Just so used to arsenal finishing above us. Hope this season is the one!

I think we'll get fourth but its going down to the wire... I think with no back up for Parker or Dembele we will start tiring in the run in... great job so far though!

I still reckon 5th..something has to go wrong...
It's the Spurs fan mentality!

This season however, it just feels like something is different throughout the whole club. I feel confident we will finish stronger, rather than collapse. The fact we've rested players throughout the season (e.g. Vertonghen today) adds to that theory.

If we still had Sandro I'd be more optimistic of finishing 4th, I think it'll be 5th. We've got Arsenal/Liverpool/City/Chelsea still to play and Arsenal have just got Man Utd to go.

It could be anything from 6th to 2nd. I have a feeling that if Utd win tomorrow, they will be 12 points clear. the city players with all of their egos, will realise that their season is over an could quite easily plummet. Especially if Mancini is sacked.

I agree with this, Mancini hasn't seemed right for a while now and it just looks like a club with internal problems, be it egos, in fighting etc. tevez has got one goal since November, balotelli is gone, aguero as good as he is can still bea bit erratic.

Also as strong as the Chelsea team and squad is they had only one 3 games out of their last 10 and still have city, utd and Liverpool away.

Although far from easy we do have a good chance of nicking 3rd or even 2nd if we get a bit of luck and can limit the injuries.

Citeh are too strong to lose 2nd. I just hope the heart has gone out of them by the time they come to the Lane...

Despite what happened last year, I'll still happily take 4th right now.

I would take 4th right now also, Kaboul may be back before too long, Ade may find his shooting boots but it's a shame we won't see Sandro again this season, if we had him then maybe i would think about 3rd, hell i am even thinking about it anyway.

We have very very difficult fixtures coming up, and we only have a 4 point cushion over Arsenal. We must beat them at home to give us confidence playing the other difficult ties. If we can beat Arse it may just give us the boost to go to Anfield for an away win too. I'd be happy we can get 3-4 points against Everton (H) , Chelsea (A) and City (H) I think we can do 9 points in our final 3 matches.

This will be incredibly difficult so Adebayor will need to hit form and Bale to keep up his magestic form too

I'm still going for 4th or 5th. The Arsenal game is a massive one.

If we beat West Ham then the pressure is on Arsenal. I think Everton will fall away and Liverpool are too far behind.

Chelsea are a bit up and down but think they'll do enough for 3rd.

The Arse scum have a much easier run in than us, they only have to play us and Man Utd at home, we have to play them, Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool, just can't see Arse not ending up 4th or better..

Agree about arsenal but I just have a feeling that city or Chelsea are going to drop out- probably totally wrong but I think there is a real chance
