Is it too early to hope that every English team apart from us gets knocked out of Europe this week?! :)

I would laugh my bollocks off if that happened.

Spurs remaining fixtures, potential for a lot of dropped points, especially as they've only won 2 of the last 5.

H Arsenal
A Chelsea
A Liverpool
H Burnley
H Man City
A Sheff Utd

Thats a fucking horrific  run. If i was predicting i would say

Arsenal D
Chelsea W
Liverpool L
Burnley W
CITY D
Sheff utd W
The only concern is Citeh May have the title won by the time they play them.
If not I think 2 more wins and a draw gets us 4th.


We need an extra point as they could easily catch up the goal difference against Burnley or Sheffield United.

Spurs will do well to get 9 more points.

Arse might totally shit the bed and collapse now. Can see Spurs getting something from that game.

I don't think so. I can't stand the bloke, but I do think Arteta has done a good job with a squad that isn't as good as Man City or Liverpool.

Didn't think we'd make top 4 even when we were dismantling teams of all hues between Sep-Dec last year.

Wasn't much more of a believer before the Tottingham home game early March, which could have put us well clear.

But I'd be pig sick if we don't manage it from this position.

Let's just concentrate on getting 4-6 points in our next two games before Spurs play again. 7-9 points would start to look like an unassailable gap to Spurs given their run-in.

I was thinking this after the game today, if we can manage to turnover Bournemouth and Chelsea, psychologically it will be a blow to spurs
