I agree we should go all out to win this competition but take issue with a couple of the writer's points (different to yours, @JoeT).
Firstly, we don't really have any "key players" who the fans would be incensed about if we rested them for a "top-flight" PL fixture, as we did when Bale and Modric played for us. Everyone is droppable and we have the squad depth to compensate.
Secondly, the writer appears to have got his sums wrong. He says City, Chelsea, Arsenal and United are the top teams then goes on to say Liverpool are unlikely not to finish in the top four. But whatever, five into four doesn't go, and less so six into four, which is us. His point about going all out for the EL stands.
.It would take a Juande Ramos-like run of form — two points from the first eight games saw the Spaniard lose his job in 2008 — to tempt Levy to abandon Pochettino.
Also
We're on our worst start since then. We've now taken 2 points from our last 5 league games and drawn both Europa games. In fact, we've only won one of our last seven games and that was against championship opponents.
Yeah. .
