    We are a better team than Villa but we are both going to lose games in the run in.

    You are not up to "the job" , rcl present or not.
    In the latter case, I'd rather let fate decide than amateurs. :)

    Not certain yet. Two others are in the lead at present - Germany and Spain?

    Has anyone timed the longest the Bottlers can go without one of their players flopping to the turf and demanding a free kick, often before they've even hit the ground?

    I can remember a few seasons ago when we should have finished runners up we went to a relegated team for a final league game and lost 5-1......and gave Arsenal second place. Just thought I'd remind you all what brilliant things Spurs were capable of!......and no suicides were reported from Spurs fans!!!!

    I don’t think any Spurs fans have forgot that

    Awful day. Spurs have had a few of those over the years at SJP

    I think we're still 3rd in the rankings, below Italy and Germany.

    Top two get the extra space. We're something like 0.15 points behind Germany and have more teams still in European competition.

    No idea how these things are calculated and tbh looking at how VAR decisions are arrived at, I doubt the people at UEFA have any idea either.

    Ollie Watkins has criticised Villa for "lacking a big team mentality" after their draw against Brentford.

    Sounds like a move to Spurs would be right up his street. It'll be a familiar environment from the off.

    That table shows the 'rolling' coefficient for the past 5 years.

    Iirc, the extra CL place is being awarded to the top two coefficients of 23/24's tally only.

    No idea why. The reason probably involved an unmarked suitcase of rare watches changing hands somewhere in Switzerland.

    Ah, but they did win the league when Charles II was on the throne, ergo they are a big club

    Just seen the disallowed Wolves goal.

    I.e. they weren't allowed to do exactly what teams do against us every single week.

    I haven't seen it, but I heard it was like the Antonio one that Vicario saved.
    The bloke fouling the keeper wasn't penalised for the foul, but he was offside.
