    The timing of the matches is quite interesting. If we drop points against Stoke, Chelsea will come into the game against us with a lot of encouragement (if they dispose of Swansea). If we draw we will be on 72, and Chelsea will be on 66 if they beat Swansea. A draw at Stamford Bridge means it is effectively over as our GD is so much better. If we get beat, then the last match will be nail biting time as we may have to win it.

    imo we must win v stoke and I hope Swansea need the points v Chelsea and at least draw at home.

    we have got to do our own job or we don't deserve it. we need 5 points from 9.

    we should only need 3 but that's gone

    We only need 4 points. Our goal difference is far superior to chavs. Beat stoke and all we have to do is avoid defeat at chelsea or get a point on the last day

    That's is if they are not devastated, I understand Mauricio Pochettino is considering his position.

    spurs are bottlers. it's only if they think chelsea are too close thst they will feel that.

    if kane becomes ultra selfish they might also lose shape.

    Games to go:

    Liverpool: Chelsea (A)Brighton &hove Albion (H) Points 72 two more games
    Tottenham: Watford(H) West Brom(A)Newcastle (H)Leicester (H) points 68 four more games
    Chelsea: Liverpool (H} Hundersfield (H) Newcastle (A) Points 66

    Liverpool winning one more game are going to have 75 points

    #Tottenham winning all their games would have 68+ 12=80

    Chelsea winning all their games would have 66+9=75

    Getting scary.

    If we can beat Chelsea it's over because we are going to have 75 points with better goal difference and Chelsea 66 points.

    I think we'll beat them but you're right in that a draw is enough

    They have made it hard for themselves.

    I half fancy one of them to throw one to ensure they get their move.

    West Brom may also have a word or two. Tottenham going there on Saturday. I think we should be more worried about Chelsea.
