I have a feeling we will draw vs chelsea which puts us 8 points clear of spurs If you include  GD

Then they have huge pressur vs spurs. Its mad spurs get such a long rest and annoying arsenal will have a game midweek. Hopefully they wont be too tired

8 points is a stretch in terms of GD. If Spurs won those 3 games (I don’t think they would, but) they’d have a good chance of overhauling 5 goals.

Those are still very tough games, I’m unsure why people are saying we have the easier run in? IF we get 4th place and get to the final of the Conference then UE will have performed nothing short of a miracle with the injuries and amount of games we’ve played.

Spurs realistically need at least 4 points from

H) Arsenal
A) Chelsea
A) Liverpool
H) Man City

And that's assuming they do take 6 from Burnley (H) and Sheff U (A).

I'd much much rather be in our position.

I don't know if anyone's noticed but we could be 9 clear by the time Spurs next play.

Spurs forums seem to have pretty much written off fourth place. I appreciate that online fans are massive pant-wetters at the best of times (see minutes 30-45 of our match thread), but they seem to think that they have no chance in any of the games you mention based on how they are playing, and they're not even that confident about the Burnley game.

My Spurs mate messaged "that's fourth sewn up" after the match today. I hope he's right but it's bollocks really. Doubt they'll lose all of those harder games on paper. We're in a good position but nothing decided yet.

We all know football is mad, they could just as easily get 4 or 5 points from those tough games.

It’s a long way from over.

Spurs are capable of beating those notorious bottlers arsenal. A draw wouldnt be end of the world. Have a feeling they will beat chelsea and lose to Liverpool.

They're capable of beating all of them. They're also capable of losing to all of them.
