Champions League Contention

[VillaTim]

What did Brighton have to play for?

Nothing , they didn't play particularly well either , just we were horrendous.

[PaulWinch again]

At least Burnley didn’t let the goal difference get damaged.

It’s time for us to step up and finish the job ourselves. In the last week or so we have been poor, mitigating factors fully understood but they won’t be any consolation if we don’t get 4th. We need one more big performance.

We already have enough points to finish 4th, but I'd like us to breach 70, as it looks better. Plus it means winning, which we have got into quite the enjoyable habit of this season. If we do it Monday then fine.

That first statement hopefully comes to pass, but it’s not a statement of fact at this time.

I just don't see Spuds getting a result against City. The latter were in slippers today. It's possible, but not probable.

[martin o`who??]

It would be so nice to beat Liverpool with the most outrageously wrong VAR decision of all time in the 89th minute.  I’m talking 6 feet offside. 
That would top the season off nicely.

i'd bet the Ranch/a kidney/a years salary that it would be the other way round if i'm any judge.

If anyone feels Spurs can win their next two and we will lose our next two feel free to place a massive bet on it. The odds are very much against it and the payout very much in your favour.

[ChicagoLion]

I think we might need something against Liverpool.

I backed Tottenham to finish 4th last week at 16/1 purely to jinx them

I dont think anybody really thinks the 115 Machine can be stopped, by anybody, ever. They're a title winning machine sent from the future to destroy English football. They can't be stopped or reasoned with.

What we're seeing, is the repeated use of a psychological tool of assuming the worst, because you fear failure. It's been a long season and it's intense at the thin end where we operate. It's angst, it's impatience, even if it comes across as being intimidated by the final challenge. In a little over 48 or at worst 72, hours we'll have achieved something, the pressure on players, coaches, staff and fans lifts. For those that clearly struggle with it, those that thrive on it and those that don't care.

But much like when you're bursting for a piss, you're never more likely to consider actually just pissing yourself than when you're limping to the toilet in that final bladder busting yard.

[LeeB]

Yeah, Monday is going to feel like finishing a massive, long overdue piss when we win.

Beautiful.

Beautiful.

It will be glorious. But empty I suspect. Be brilliant for the club, but we'll have achieved something intangible. We need to boost the squad, get some fortune on injuries and get into the pot winning business.

[Brazilian Villain]

One of the doom-mongers will be along shortly to point out that urination is simply an anagram of ruination.

[taylorsworkrate]

It feels like a massive opportunity on Monday to finish it ourselves considering Liverpool have nothing to play for now.

One last big push with plenty of intensity

You seem to be under the impression that the way we feel has any effect whatsoever.
