villanmac Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) Spurs are so limited. It's just a front 3 of pure pace where the tactic is for the wide forward to get a yard and to put it across the box for the opposite wide forward to tap in at the back post, which with Werner and Brennan Johnson is annoyingly successful considering how limited they are as footballers. A bionic man CB to breeze past he opposition breakaways covering up how shit they are defensively (convinced he's not a got good defender) and enough athletes across the pitch to press the opposition into submission. Saying that, that style vrs Chelsea would make it very 50/50, both sides will go for it, it will be mayhem and basically be who takes their chances imo.

We just have to get through the next three games with a couple of good results and hopefully that’s enough for CL place. What’s Spurs’ excuse?

Popular Post markavfc40 Posted April 28 Popular Post Share Posted April 28 I think anyone worried that Liverpool may have one toe on the beach when they play Spurs next week need to factor in that if that is the case by the time they play us the following week they'll have sun creamed up, be lying on their towel, head phones in and fast asleep. Bottom line is though Liverpool at Anfield is a far tougher game than playing them at home. Overall this has been a great weekend for us. We gained a point on Spurs, Chelsea got a point keeping them well in the hunt for 6th place with Spurs up next, Arsenal won to ensure that Man City will almost certainly still need to get something when they play Spurs, Brighton who we play next got trounced meaning they have no wins in 6 including 4 defeats and Burnley got a point meaning they'll almost certainly still be fighting for survival when they play Spurs. I am sure not one of us would swap places with Spurs but every single one of their supporters would swap places with us. We have put ourselves in a great position. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I put it into my odds calculator and it came back at 1 : 7.5 ... this assumes a vig of 95%. This means for every 100 thousand that is bet on Villa 19 thousand is bet on Spurs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One other element for Liverpool / Spurs is how Spurs won the away game with dodgy VAR night, motivate Liverpool to even the score .. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 (edited) It’s in our hands and we have Brighton, Liverpool and Palace to play. They have Chelsea, City, Liverpool Burnley and Sheffield United to play. I reckon they will get 8 points from those games. So we just need one win or 2 draws right ?

Maddison has really gone downhill since his injury, wouldn't shock me if they benched him soon like they did with Bissouma today. Werner also turned out exactly like he was at Chelsea. Their best bet for the run in is to bring back Richarlison as their best form has come with him as CF, move Son back to the left and have Kuluveski as the number 10 or bring in another CM.
