I have the volume off because my wife will kill me for waking her up. The game was really wide open in the beginning especially. Did they go right into this being a continuation of what we saw on Saturday?
Haha similar situation, although my wireless headphones had enough juice for the first 8 minutes. Yes, they were laughingly saying here we go again.
They are talking about a rules change to handball that actually specifically mentions guys reaching down to balance themselves and that it wasn’t hand ball
Eh, disagree. Walker tore through our left side. It's our weak spot, Sterling on the other side has been largely neutered.
Lot of pressure in the final 4 games. Thankfully 3 are at home. Really need Everton or Palace to do us a solid tonorrow.
Thought it would be way worse, given their frustrations. Take care of business down the stretch and we're safe.
Frustrating because we could have gotten a result but we all expected this to be a loss. Tuesday, and really all the rest of the league games, is must win.
Yup. Win the rest of the league games. Anything from this tie would have been a bonus but a couple weeks ago the fear was 0 points and no more CL so whatever. Go pump teams at the new stadium and let the dudes get healthy.
Honestly think we’ll play the home leg against Ajax similar to how we played City today. Going to need Lucas to be much sharper, though. Foyth and Sanchez were outstanding. Dier is playing out of necessity and it shows; tough year for him.
He and Wanyama were both outstanding in 16-17, but it’s been downhill ever since. Dier needs to transition to CB imo.
Poor Harry had to cope with receiving his MBE from the third string Aston Villa fan. One of the most notable events Elizabeth has ever had to back out of was the official opening of The Emirates. She must have been worried about the backlash from Arsenal Fan TV.
So flights are cheaper than semifinal tix, been pondering. If I dont and we make the final it would be hard not to try and attend. All I want to know is, who's coming with me?
Hopefully Burnley can pull off the trifecta tomorrow. Just saw that 538 now gives us an 89% chance of finishing top 4.
Yes, weekend turned out to be pretty damn good. I think Man U is toast. That said, I do want them to beat Chelsea and I think we would be in much better shape. Hopefully they make a run, because I dont think they pass us and I dont want them coming for Poch.
I’m still not confident. Feel like we have to win Champions League if we want to play in it again next year.
You serious Clark? We obviously could still blow it but we’re prohibitive favorites now. Win the next two league games like we should and our chances will be extremely good.
I like our odds, but that feels overly optimistic with the remaining fixtures and injuries we have. Granted I don't know what injuries other people have.
I would assume it also factors in the others remaining schedules. For starters, United have city and Chelsea left to play.
Well aware. I posted a couple of weeks back the schedules and expected outcomes. Just saying 93% is a huge number. We have fixtures versus West Ham and Everton that won’t be cake walks. I know others have some tough games.
The magic number for finishing ahead of Chelsea is 9. Any combination of points won by Spurs and points dropped by Chelsea that adds up to 9 means we finish ahead of Chelsea. The magic number for finishing ahead of Arsenal is 11, assuming we continue to hold the tiebreaker advantage. Any combination of points won by Spurs and points dropped by Arsenal that adds up to 11 means we finish ahead of Arsenal. (If we lose the tiebreaker advantage, the magic number is 12.) The magic number for finishing ahead of Man United is 9. Any combination of points won by Spurs and points dropped by Man United that adds up to 9 means we finish ahead of Man United.
Hope Poch starts today with mostly backups. We can always sub in our better players but hopefully they’re not needed. We should be able to beat Brighton at home with our backups. We need our midfield as healthy as possible for next Tuesday.
We need this three points more than any right now. I don't want backups. Brighton needs to stay above the drop. They will park the buses on us to try to extend their lead to 4 points. We need some creativity and early goals.
my irrational tottenham brain is very scared for this match. all of those dropped points from our rivals usually isnt the best of omens for us.
