She would be able to look you in the eye too instead of whispering mate at your shoes.

Our squad sort of resembles the physical state of Arnie at the end of the second film now.

There is an incentive here, and the process has caused some suffering for both players and us the supporters and fans.
But pain usually comes before glory and sucess. That is how it works. Particularly when progressing. You can't just saunter into the top four, we have to work our way there over 38 matches. It actually helps now to have a sole concentration on the Champions League objective and Emery and his players understand what they need to do to achieve.

Working harder and smarter than Liverpool and Palace, who have less incentive, is now dependent on the players' motivation. The reward for the players is the opportunity to participate in the Champions League, which is a powerful motivator for any professional footballer in Europe.

Too right you would! Spurs literally having to beat the 115ers would be a great advantage for us - and one that, if they manage it and overhaul us, would mean Spurs have genuinely earned it, as DW says.

Yeah - a draw would be a great result - means a draw should be enough on the final day even if Spurs beat City.

To be honest if this goes to the final day we are in serious trouble .

It’s all on their match vs City.
If we beat Red Scouse then great, I can’t that happening, so it on the city match.

Plenty of talking ourselves out of this today. Seriously we have this wrapped up. Show some faith and avoid coppers with sticky out ears who don’t smile

I think we lose tomorrow and then Spurs draw with Citeh. 

Then it’s bedshitting Sunday. 

I don’t remember being that invested the last time we missed out on the CL.
Wasn’t it a 1.1 draw against Newcastle at VP. Shearer’s last game??

Think yesterday was the 'best worst' result for us really given that Spurs won but only by one goal, so haven't really put a big dent in our superior goal difference.

Watched the Spurs-Burnley game yesterday. It was typical Spurs. Absolute shit for 70/75 minutes but wear the opposition down, put some fresh legs on and finish stronger than the opposition. Man City should be out of sight by the time Spurs start playing.

I know they're in great form (and we have a terrible record there) but Crystal Palace are still...Crystal Palace. If we need something from that game we're very capable of getting it.

No it’s not at all. It’s completely in our hands, starting with beating Liverpool, or at least not losing.

One of the reasons I'm starting to catostrophise about the whole thing is that when we've got close in the past it's always still seemed like a long shot, whereas this time we've been up there all season and it will feel like a real choke if we don't do it from here. I just hope it gets sorted this week as another week will be too much stress.

Obviously, the only thing that matters is us qualifying, but if we beat Liverpool it will take away all Spurs motivation against Man City, which will piss off the Arsenal twats who hate Unai.
