I wouldn’t call taking 4 points from our next two league games ‘limping over the line.’

I'm not sure clinching it with two games to spare would qualify as 'limping over the line'.

Win against Spurs is a must, for our own objectives, but more for the greater good.

Feel a but more confident about beating Spurs now that Simons is out for the season. Maddison, who always plays well against us, is back on their bench, wonder if they'll have to chuck him in.

I've been saying it since November, but if we go into the last two games requiring ANYTHING to get into the Champions League, I may well bite my fingernails down to the bloody stumps.  Please get it done before then, Villa.  Please.

It feels like the last Champions League qualifying season, we did enough and then hung on, expending as little energy as possible.

Saturday was a bit shit, but Fulham are a decent side. Tottenham need thumping, and for someone to make sure Maddison decides to sit out the rest of the season.
