Spurs (A) - Tues 14th May, 20:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[Gone for a Burton]

A Villa win will massively help us on Tuesday

Don't rely on those small time tossers, they've got the towels out !!

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

We need Arse to lose and Villa to win before this game. Those results will have a huge impact on this game. Either way we are in beast mode and will win. Had us down for a 4-0 for Fulham, pity I didn’t actually bet on it. Win this one 2-0 and it’s happy days.

Villa will give Spurs hope by losing to Liverpool.
Spurs 1 City 3

Rag’s getting something tomorrow will help us more.

 

[Lavinda Past]

Serious question, would their players throw this game?

No. It wouldn't be in their best interests. Regardless who players support or who they want to win, their own desire to do well and win is greater.
No-one actually wants to lose except those corrupt enough to bet on such an outcome.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Serious question, would their players throw this game?

I recall us twatting Leeds 4-0 when they were battling with the rags for the title.

I just can't see them throwing it whatsoever.

 

[york away to this!]

Might be a long dog walk tuesday

Is it a daschund?

 

[Lavinda Past]

Rag’s getting something tomorrow will help us more.

Two hopes... Slim and Bob. Arsenal will wipe the floor with them.

If it meant the rags winning the league, yes.

Exactly, You have to see the big picture

United were regular winners back then, Arsenal winning this would be hideous for Spurs fans, CL or not

For the love of god stop son running onto a long ball and scoring , just for once play a little deeper , we havent stopped him any other way we have tried so far

Nope - they're pros - wish people wouldn't ask

I have concerns based on the first half today - that ball over the top is STILL (and I suspect under Pep will always be) an issue for us.
The benefits outweigh it though and Pep knows best

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

Why does it have to be Spurs away?!

Because we dropped a couple of bollocks earlier in the season.
Wolves away and Palace at home spring to mind (some argue we were hard done to at Wolves mind).
We're still there at the end. Based on the volume of games in recent seasons, and the fact everyone could have dropped a level after last season I think that's pretty feckin good going.
Bring it on

I take your point but pep has never made allowances for something that happens virtually every game with son , with the title on the line next week i hope he has a different idea

 

[Lavinda Past]

I wish people would stop creating some aura of quality around Spurs.
As I see it, the standard of football outside the top three in the PL is poor. Arsenal will finish the season with maximum points, and City will do the same.
Have people learned nothing from the past three seasons??

KDB and Haaland need to be better on Tuesday.

 

[york away to this!]

If that twatty ref had played the clear advantage in the spuds game at home (assuming we'd have scored that last minute winner), we'd now be 4 points ahead with two games to play.
Time to set the record straight on Tuesday...

 

[Blu3m00n91]

Hopefully Villa get points on Monday and I think the atmosphere will be flat.
