St Totteringham's day - IT'S HAPPENED AGAIN!!!

We play City coming off the Madrid game. Villa are 3 points for everyone so that is a win.

Chelsea away and Spurs could easily drop points without Alli too. Saints yesterday (and previous games against us/others) have shown they can have a good go at the top teams. Tough fixture. Finally Newcastle game could be them playing for their season and it will be away so that could be very tough.

A while back it seemed impossible but with each game it's gotten a little more likely. Spurs are bigger bottlers than us.

Yay!

It is extremely unlikely we'll finish above them but if we could it would be a tiny, minuscule, vanishingly small crumb of comfort. The barest, meagre, absolute minimum possible. Wenger's speciality.

If they lose tonight, possibly. Otherwise, no.

Don't see it happening I'm afraid.

Though it would be fucking hilarious if it did.

They'd be broken for all eternity if they fucked it up this year. I can't think how we could help them any more than we have.

Fucked up what?

The league has gone for them, even if they somehow win tonight it's only postponing inevitable

Will they regard this season as a success by finishing above us?

This season is certainly a success for them, by comparison to the ones gone before. They have a manager doing the business, a team that leads the league in just about every measure (bar the points tally of course) and they are, yes, above us which I'm sure means a huge amount to them given how much we've rubbed their noses in it over the decades. They've done what we should be doing every year - compete. Well I suppose we have a whole bunch of excuses as consolation and with the Wengerdrones in full voice over the weekend we'll need to live on those excuses for a while yet I'd guess. The spuds are on the up and we are on the ways down. Inevitable, something had to eventually change for them and given who we have in charge there was always only one way we'd be heading.

Pochettino is young and bright, up to date for the modern game, fearless against teams, and can get a team to beat Stoke away 4-0.

The squad is full of young and hungry players who play for the badge.

If they had a better squad to cope with the extra fixtures, they'd be first. Thank fuck for Leicester.

I don't know, I honestly don't think the fans of that club measure their success against us. Yes there is the champions league qualification but I think yes compared to other seasons it will be a success but I think they wanted the title and were hungry for it....so they will see it as disappointment come what may.
Unlike some of our fans who even finishing 4th will be an affirmation of the genius of L'Ouisseau
