spurs v west ham

Great result for us, i think most people would ave expected the spuds to get all 3 points today and i guess most people would be happy to come away from Chelsea with a point, giving a 2 point swing to Spuds.

Now even if we lose we are only one point worse off than most of us would have expected.

I still think it's going to come down to when the two teams meet but if we can win that then 4th is there for the taking. i'm sorry to admit i am not concerned about the rags winning the league now, if they can take all three points of Chelsea and Arse we will have a good chance of third.

Bridge proves his worth
An outstanding display by Wayne Bridge set the tone for a fine Hammers awayday at Spurs

That's his 1 great game in 10 then or am I being generous

Wayne Bridge demonstrated his international class with a terrific performance in the goalless draw at Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.
The left-back gave a masterclass in defending whoever he was up against on the left flank, with Spurs seeing first Aaron Lennon and then Gareth Bale and Rafael van der Vaart frustrated by the No36. Bridge was rightly presented with the Sky Sports man of the match prize but he was more pleased with the result for the team, who will finish the weekend outside the bottom three.
Bridge said: "Defensively it was my best game since joining the club. I was up against Aaron who is really quick. You try not to give him too much room but Matty [Upson] was helping me out and we didn't give him too much room to play."
He was also undeterred when Welsh winger Bale was moved over to his side to try and offer a different threat. "Gareth is used to cutting inside. I tried to stay with him because I know how quick he is and I was just trying to read him really. I had to stay as tight as possible and again not give him too much room."
The point could prove pivotal come the end of the season but it needed some superb saves from Robert Green on the occasions the defence was unable to stop the Spurs surge. "Rob has been tremendous ever since I have been here," added Bridge. "Today he pulled out some outstanding saves. He was great."

Hate to see them win anything, but I'm resigned to them winning the league. Therefore I would agree with you. Let them put a spanner in the works for Arsenal and Chelsea.

I was expecting Spurs and Chelsea to win, so whatever happens tomorrow we're ahead of where I expected to be.

Huge blow for Spurs. Their away form is poor, so they have to win at home.

I thought a similar thing last season when they had to play arsenal, chelsea and us. Yet somehow they managed to pull it off.

We must win tomorrow and at least this will give us a bit of breathing space should we make any cock ups during our run in
