Champions League Contention

Jack wasn’t even in the squad in the last game.

FA Cup 4th Round: 26th January 2024
Spurs 0-1 Man City (Ake 88)

…I’d take the same again, a draw or preferably a much earlier comfortable win for City.

Anyways, I don’t believe in previous records having any impact on current teams so previous results between these teams is irrelevant. Tomorrow City need to win…and I don’t see an out of form Spurs team stopping them.

We are now 1/40 to finish top 4.

I've been drip feeding my bets against us. When the winnings were under a thousand I definitely felt anxious which told me that wasn't enough. I topped it up a little bit more - £1250 still didn't shift my mood. I'm now at £1600 and it feels about right. I don't want the money and I'll be cock-a-hoop if we do Liverpool. But the nerves have largely gone. That's my price, it would seem.

Hate to quote myself, but this was a load of tosh. I was a nervous wreck there. Jumped on the pub table when we equalised.

Come on City…

Lee, thanks so much for what you’ve done mate. You may just have done enough to get us over the line.

Thanks Mike. But I can’t take all the credit. The lads played their part too.

[Smithy]

I think if it's still level with half an hour to go, both teams will start to take risks.  As good as a draw is for us and Arsenal, it's no good for either of the teams playing tomorrow.  It will be quite an unusual situation for a league match, where a is as good as losing for both teams. It's win or bust. The longer it stays level, the bigger the risks they will take, I'd imagine.

Obviously I'd prefer City to be 3-0 by HT and it become a classing Man City bore-fest of a thousand tiny passes.

There’s one thing I’ll be looking for before tomorrow’s game kicks off…and that’s Rodris’ name on the Man City team sheet. Spurs need to win, but Rodri hasn’t been on the losing team for over 40-something games…and it won’t be the end of this record tomorrow.

[Somniloquism]

Haven't City got a dog shit record at Spurs?

Yep it’s really poor. But without a lot of research I suspect it’s against Spurs teams under Conte and Mourinho who set up to strangle the game, and also I doubt it was at this stage of the season.

Yep the last two times was before the juggernaut started when they played them in Mid-Feb. And Citeh have no-one in their squad listed as injured where Spurs just lost their defensive midfielder. If Spurs win or even draw, it will be a hell of a result for them in the circumstances.

[LeeB]

Spurs could win tomorrow playing the greatest football ever seen and it's still in our hands.

Fuck Spurs.

[Proposition Joe]

Grealish to score the goal that sends us into the CL.

Super, Super Jack!

If he does, for me that's bygones, he's paid us back for leaving and can come back to VP sans les boos.

Fuck Spurs.

I'd like it to be over and done with tomorrow. I want it taken out of our hands by Man City.

They owe us, it's our win at Arsenal that put it in their own hands.

Pep loves us too.

Pull his dirty over his head and reveal a vest with the champions league logo on. Should be subtle enough to get away without any unwarranted attention.

It'd be like when Like Skywalker removes Darth Vader's mask and you can see there's still part of him left, hidden beneath all the football robot shit.

[Demitri_C]

Ill take a draw as that would help arsenal win the league and give us 4th

Rather arsenal win the league than those cheats citeh

Exactly what I was thinking. For all the talent that Man City have, Rodri is the man that makes them really tick.
