Let's say it's almost certain that Spurs are going to finish 5th, but *might* be able to catch Villa. I wonder what their fans would want. a) Beat Man City and probably still finish 5th. Arsenal win the title. b) Lose to Man City and finish 5th but Arsenal don't win the title. Honestly, I think most would go for b. What do the players and Ange want?

jayEm Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 With all the injuries piling up it would be so nice if Spurs could lose to Chelsea and Liverpool and we beat Brighton, and have it all wrapped up on Sunday. I can see Spurs getting a point at least at Anfield though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 3 hours ago, fightoffyour said: If we beat Brighton, even just one draw for Spurs against Chelsea would leave them not only needing to gain 9 points in 2 games but also having to overturn a GD of at least 6 (assuming a one-goal winning margin in each of the assumed results) or more likely 7 with our GF. So they'd have to beat Sheffield Utd, City, and Burnley by 2 goals each on average. Goal difference is easy for them to overcome with Sheffield United to play. Most teams hitting 4 or 5 on them. Plus 6 goal difference will be less if it ends up going to level as we'd have lost and Spurs won games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans are not in conundrum, having ventured into Spurs social media, they were extremely happy we beat Arsenal and would rather finish 5th then see Arsenal win PL by far, honestly haven't seen one Spurs fan that would rather get CL 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point about Sheffield Utd but I’ve already included the other swings in GD (by one for a win) for the other assumed results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WallisFrizz Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 1 hour ago, VillaChris said: What needs to be remembered is Spurs have played in the CL 7-8 times in the last 15 years so it's simply not the big thing for them it will be for us in qualifying. I think most are just happy they're playing decent football again after the bore years of Mourinho/Conte/Nuno. Looking at their forums and they certainly don't want "Woolwich" "Goons" "The Flith" winning the league so will be arms crossed and muted response when likes of Son and Johnson are running towards goal in that game for sure. Ange hasn’t played in the CL repeatedly tho and he looked furious yesterday. I don’t think he would care less about Arsenal winning the league if he could get a spurs win v city. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if they draw with Chelsea, Liverpool and City game and beat Burnley by 2 goals. We win against Brighton and lose to Liverpool. They'll be 3 goals behind and 2 points behind. So if we draw they need to win by 3 or 4 depending on goals scored. Same as above except they lose to Liverpool let's say. If we lose to Palace and they beat Sheffield. Lots of permutations. I just worry a bit about them turning up for a big performance against City in the middle game. We just need to keep picking up points in the final games. We land a win and we should be good for 4th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players will want to beat City despite that handing Arsenal the league. No Spurs fan at all wants Arsenal fans jeering them for winning them the League.

Been saying for a while that 70 points will be enough. Beating Brighton gets us there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
