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

Serious question, would their players throw this game?

Not a chance. They're professionals, and I doubt they give a fuck about Arsenal at all

No point worrying about Villa/Spurs CL chances, Spurs have been ‘fighting’ for the CL spot for the past few weeks and still played like shit.

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...

There are lots of ifs and buts over a season. We could easily highlight 4/5 examples including some of our own making. If only Rodri hadn’t been sent off for example, if only Foden hasn’t wildly hacked at a ball and gave away a pen against Palace. If only Haaland hadn’t missed 10 clear cut chances over the season. If only we hadn’t taken our foot off the gas in 10 plus games etc etc.

Not worth looking at these or any others. Only what happens going forward matters now. Pep trusts this group and so he should.

Of course!
Was merely trying to make the whole thing more spuds-centric. You've wrecked my dressing room motivational speech...

Ha ha. It’s only the fact it’s Spurs that gives me any doubt. Them bastards have spoilt our fun a good few times over the years!

I'd go with the same XI again, depending on Nathan's fitness. If he's not available, Kyle would be the obvious change.

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??

I don't think any of us are creating anything around Spurs it's more about our record at their new ground.

 

[SWPISHOME]

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

It would be great if Aston Villa beat Liverpool on Monday and that cuts out Tottenham being able to finish in a Champions League place.

I reckon it will be a rather strange atmosphere anyway, Absolutely no way Spurs fans want Arsenal winning the title. Apparently there's still loads of tickets on sale in the home end?

I'm sure Tottenham players will just see it as another game, Not so sure Spurs fans will think like that especially if Villa beat Liverpool.
