    Points ok tbh. Only need 3 points from 3 games, assuming Chelsea win all their games. We play Chelsea too.

    We've obviously got another possibility to qualify too.

    I'm fine with a point tbh. Hope Stoke get relegated. Embarrassing performance from a team that needs to win every game (realistically) to stay up.

    I'm looking forward to Wednesday more than anything.

    Good thing about this season is 2nd-4th means the same. No qualifying involved for top 4 anymore. Happy days.

    Means nothing mate. Don't let the small club mentality get in your head. Sound like an Arsenal fan tbh.

    2nd, 3rd or 4th. No difference. No trophy. All get CL football.

  7. It has generally got us the pick of the better players over you (Salah excepted).

    Also, it has helped us to (a) consolidate our top 4 credentials, and (b) help us to put distance between us and Arsenal.

    For Spurs, it's al about us building up our winning mentality.

    His heart will have sunk with that equaliser, though.

    Tadic playing for a summer move, apparently.
    Zaha probably won't stay at Palace, either.

    Leicester down to 10 men. Nothing to play for, really. Probably a few already on the beach.

    He's got one shot at playing in the World Cup. Probably doesn't want to risk getting injured.

    Doubt he’ll get many minutes at the World Cup at all. Would rather he and Maguire stayed home tbh

    He probably won't be in the starting XI, but he's a useful sub. I think he'll get chances.

    He’s got the best record of scoring against top teams in the squad but his face doesn’t fit so if he does get on the pitch the rest of them will do their best to avoid him. As I say, would rather Leicester players not be involved with it and tarred with the inevitable failure

    Not from the same ilk as other England players, worked hard to make it and doesn’t seem liked by players of the top 6
