Race for the Top 4 - 2018/19

[SugarRay]

Team v Bournemouth
Gazza
Aurier.. Dav...Foyth...Ben...KWP
Victor...Skipp
Son...Vinny...Lamela

It will have to be....we looked shot today.

That’s a bottom half team

Problem is the Bournemouth game is sandwiched between these ties, easy to drop points there. That’s then massive pressure last game of the season potentially.

Bournemouth play pretty open against us normally. Our last 7 games weve got a 26-2 aggregate against them.

 

[Seafordian Spurs]

Just can't see us progressing in CL SF and getting Top 4 given our depleted resources.

 

[Graysonti]

There’s plenty of time in between imo

Just like this week to be honest

Today’s game was lost in the Summer. 3/4 injuries to our squad and we are fucked basically. It’s amazing we’re where we are

That I agree - see my thread at time

Imagine having a Grealish now

Been lucky Sisokou turned it around

Why do you think Aurier and Lamela will be fit...?

No fucking around this summer. It’ll tell us everything we need to know about the foreseeable future of this club.

Minimum of one centre mid, right back and maybe another forward option. Genuine quality too

 

[Super Tottenham]

If we can get Sissoko back and fit from Ajax onwards, I will feel we can get the 1 win that I think is enough for top 4. Going to be by the skins of our teeth.

Agree 100%

We sweated this team to death - now investment if Levy serious - and those ST prices

I’ve got a gut feel he is fit but held back for Tuesday - maybe winks too - both training

When did we last win an away game? Our previously excellent away form has been diabolical in the last 2 months.

This has a Spursy feeling about it. I would not be confident having to go into the last game needing a win to qualify for CL...we know how that has worked out in the past.

 

[dricha1]

Defensively we are okay it’s up front we are really struggling and this is down to fatigue. Kane being on the bench rather than in the stands was encouraging- maybe we’ll see him before end of the season? Alli, Son didn’t look at all sharp today. A week off for Son may do him good. Poch as manager for Spurs has An excellent record against Bournemouth and Everton...being in our own hands is still massive.

 

[SpartanSpur]

Arsenal and Chelsea win tomorrow and we are bang in trouble. On current form we need all the help we can get.

If Utd and Leicester both get something tomorrow one more win should do it.

 

[Lighty64]

It’s technically speaking no longer in our hands when we need other teams to fail.

No it’s in our hands, the only thing with the other 3 teams is how easy we do it. Win our last 2 we finish 3rd. If results go our way it means a win at Bournemouth would enough.

Hopefully a Leicester win tomorrow, and I’d be happy to see a draw in the other game, if Arsenal do lose a Man U win means just 1 more win

Agree - and I think we as fans need to get behind team remaining games. Could have been more noise today BUT I think team and fans focussed on Tuesday - understandably​

 

[Colonel Dax]

Bournemouth sandwiched between the two Ajax games and Everton a few days after the 2nd leg.

Given our injuries and fatigue, securing top 4 is going to be extremely challenging.

 

[Gb160]

Can someone clarify whether 4th definitely gets CL this year?

 

[Lighty64]

OK so we'd need one win if United won and two wins if Chelsea won. Surely this is obvious.

Would depend on the Arsenal result to be honest, lose or draw then doesn’t matter what happens in the other game, 1 win would get top4

You didn't @ Shady. No Funny rating given.

I was rather hoping Lighty would shit himself with rage.

What I mean is it's one or the other!
