  1. I think what matters is Arsenal need to be ahead of them. That City need to win that game to take it to final day. If Arsenal drop points to United it's a different story. It's not all or bust on Spurs
  2. Yes if we let Carlos go we'll bring in a replacement that's for sure. Either way it's not a particularly important one. Carlos is very capable
  3. Exactly. He can play as the central of a 3 or a left side of a 3. He's also right CB of a back 3 a few times for Atletico. I can see plenty of combinations with 5 CBs Hermoso, Pau, Mings, Konsa, Carlos.
  4. I think we need another Central Midfielder, defensive minded. Either on loan or Permanent
  5. This. Every other footballer supporter saying it's done and odds saying it's nearly done. It's just that could be a stressful final day late goal against Palace done. We don't do things easy.
  6. Betfair here has us as 1.06 which is a 94.6% Chance. So win £1000 if we don't and lose £60 if we do get 4th. Spurs are 17.0 to get 4th or a 5.8% chance
  7. We really are close we can see this out ourselves. I just don't want it going to the final day as the stress would be too much. We've a 4 day gap to Liverpool and then a 6 day to Palace. We can recharge batteries. Need the home support on Monday night We are capable of big performances. We've seen plenty of them.
  8. They would win in goals scored so only need to beat them 3-0 each if we lose 1-0 and 2-0 If Liverpool won 4-0 it would mean even a draw for Spurs against City would have made it very hard for them to turn around the goal difference.
  9. It's good practice for the team and the finances have helped us
  10. Look, go the emotional hedge route. You can risk £60 to win a £1000 that Villa don't get 4th.
  11. Exactly I outlined above, let's say there's a 4 goal swing next weekend, we lose 2-0 and they win 2-0 or we lose 1-0 and they win 3-0. Then we're down to a 5 goal lead and they play Sheffield who are done and gone and concede lots of goals. We lose 1-0 and Spurs win 4-0 and they have it on goals scored Those 2 extra goals today matter.
  12. Let's say we lose by a goal to Liverpool and Spurs beat Burnley 2-0 then they draw with City. The final day means there are 5 goals in it and they win 4-0 against Sheffield United and we lose 1-0 to Palace. Then they get 4th on goals scored. Those two goals sloppy given away by Liverpool could matter. Could. Still if you had given us a 3 goal swing and being 7 ahead still at the beginning of the week we'd have taken it. Those 2 goals might mean a stressful final day though. At 11 goal lead it could have meant a Spurs draw with City wasn't enough
  13. Goa difference back in play. Very poor from Liverpool not good
  14. If this Liverpool turn up at Villa Park we might concede a few. Hard to predict goal difference with Spurs playing Burnley and Sheffield United. Spurs have a Burnley who have something to play for though next weekend. Let's hope Liverpool keep this at least s 4-0
  15. We need Liverpool to produce the goods. We're still in driving seat for 4th
  16. Makes Thurs a difficult selection decision. Do we throw in towel for ECL and save the team for Monday?
  17. It's both. We fall over the line or we don't. Need Spurs to not find any form
  18. We're literally done for the season. It's down to Liverpool and City to save us.
  19. Would break me forever if we threw this season away at the death. Need a Liverpool performance later today
  20. I'm abroad so can't see the game. 1 shot and no possession looks bad though. Are we playing as bad as stats saying?
  21. Could be key losing Emi for two games like this. I'd take a draw if we can get one. Olsen is so so so so bad it's right to be in fear seeing his name on the starting lineup.
  22. The only thing Pau has in common with Mings is the preferred foot and they are defenders. Mings is a superb defender, physical and fast. Pau is a superb deep play maker and is excellent at slow build up from the back and calm control. Pau Mings Konsa Frimpong this is the type of dream back 4
  23. He will play plenty as the central CB of back three. So Pau or Hermoso playing LB with Mings and Konsa. Then an attacking RB. Think of how we play with Konsa at RB this season. Next season we can do that but switch sides depending on what tactical flexibility Emery wants
