The powers that be couldn’t manage to get me the Mothers Day gift I wanted (an Arsenal loss) so I’m hoping they get it together for my Birthday tomorrow! A goal for every year I’ve supported City (10 or so) would do it.

City away to Spurs again, our annual upturning of football’s gravity. Ever since Spurs inflicted Pep’s first defeat in English football Spurs have been a bogey side. We have beaten them, of course, at Wembley 3 times as well as a few times at home and most recently in the FA Cup there. They have though pulled out some ridiculous results 2-0 down in Pep’s first season to 2-2 when walker should’ve got a red, the champions league VAR escape, the 2-2 with another VAR escape in injury time, the 3-2 win at ours 2 seasons ago and the 3-3 with an injury ravaged side this season.

That’s before their hoodoo at new White Hart Lane, they have 4 league wins plus the champions league, all to nil, countless misses, a few VAR upsets, 2 missed penalties and overwhelming sense that we’re on cursed ground. The win in the cup should help turn the tide.

This current Spurs side were wobbling so the Burnley result will have steadied the ship. If Villa drop points tonight it will make it a must win for both sides.

Still Spurs are apparently vulnerable to set pieces and counter attacks. We get a lot of set pieces, which are not often well executed but Gvardiol has scored twice from corners in our last 3 games so good delivery might prove very useful. We tend not to play too much on the counter so their vulnerability may not be an issue. The battle between Romero/ Van de Ven and Haaland will be fairly intense.

We should have enough, we’re in great form and we seem to be in final strait mode but it’s Spurs away so there’s always a nagging doubt. It would be the most Spurs result to beat us and finish 5th and give arsenal the title. Hopefully it doesn’t come to pass.
 
Due to a change in plans I need to drive down tomorrow.

Does anyone have any parking and travel tips? Maybe a good station to park at and get the overground/tube from?
 
I am getting sick of the media saying Pep and City have not won at Spurs or Scored a league goal, It's funny that nobody thought Pep and City have won 5 titles since Spurs moved into their new home, It is a dirty trick by the media leading with that and playing mind games with City, But also saying to Spurs you better not roll over,

City turns up and plays we win, Nobody can question Spurs about rolling over, Pep has built this squad for games and nights like this, City can go anywhere and win, The only fear I have is if the match officials are under orders to give us nothing, We all know what they want and it's not City winning a 4th league title
