Just before the season started I placed a £10 bet on Spurs to finish in the top 4 with Ladbrokes at 13/2.

Good value?

I don't think so personally.

Won't be a million miles away though.

But we're going in the right direction and all seem to be pulling together as Club behind Poch with a hungry group of players, so I'm fine with that for now.

There is fuck all in this league for us to be scared of. We'll be in the mix and there or thereabouts.

Good luck mate. I wouldxhave touched it at 20s myself though.

Goals are vital, and we find them hard to come by against the lower teams who sit back. a second pacy cf, who can push hk for a place as well as give him a rest would have made me believe we had an outside chance. But that didnt happen. Waiting till February to introduce such an option would surely be too late.

As soon as we start obsessing over top 4, is when we will probably implode again.

Lets take each game as it comes, keep working our bollocks off, hopefully get lucky be it with injuries etc and top 4 will take care of itself, i am just happy with the way we are starting to play.....

I'm not sure we're quite ready yet, unless another team slips up and lets us in. I still think we should focus on the Europa League this season.

I mean it's worth a punt for the club you support, but I personally doubt it. It's a very tall order when you look at the resources and teams we'd have to displace. Chelsea, last season's champions are the team looking most vulnerable to missing out, which says it all (in terms of the task facing us), as I'm sure they will eventually pick up and go on a huge winning run. I think we should finish top 6. I just struggle to see past the likes of Man U, goons and the oil clubs for top 4.

It's a tough league this year and as much as we may be 'bothering' the top 4 as some have said, we may also well be 'bothered' by the likes of Leicester, West Ham, Everton etc for our top 6 status.

Considering how closely matched teams are in the league it seems like a good bet. I'm not sure if I believe we will finish in the top 4 but as others have said there is no-one to be scared of

:ROFLMAO:

We just scored 4 against what was previously the strongest defence in the league.
