    Chelsea’s squad is awful except for their midfield. They have Pedro, Neto and Cucurella but those three and their midfield aside, I wouldn’t want any of their players. They have a squad with little depth in key areas. An example of this is that Delap is their second striker. How has their...

    Crystal Palace are mostly toothless without Mateta and Sarr starting. They have a crazy stat for not having scored in the first half of matches. I think you’re not wrong as such, but I do think better attacking teams than Crystal Palace and Wolves cause West Ham issues.

    If we win away v Wolves and West Ham fail to beat Everton then I think we are in a strong position. We’d be outside of the relegation zone and with a bounce after winning. Fail to beat Wolves or West Ham beat Everton and it’s still looking nasty.

    To think had we not conceded late v Brighton, we would be outside the relegation zone now. But guess we have to accept things for what they are and not what we want them to be.

    We were. I think we are better under De Zerbi but it’s way late in the season. I’m happy West Ham dropped points as many saw this as a West Ham win on paper.

    Well they’re making subs so hopefully this will push them forwards into getting the win.

    But what is Palace’s motivation to win here? I’m sure they’d prefer to keep their players fresh for Europe?

    Vicario will be gone in the summer. Regardless of if Vicario recovers before then, I don’t think he plays another match for us.

    The *WHEN* we go down thread

    We are paying high wages in the Premier League, yet if it’s true that players wages are slashed after relegation then this point falls flat.

    Why should the sponsors have any bearing on the rules? These are club sponsors and not sponsors of the league etc so you’d think the league wouldn’t care all too much. Players are taking their shirt off at hype moments which bring attention to the league, so those moments ought to be celebrated...

    Was too good to be true that Forest would lose at home v Burnley.

    Xavi Simons

    Any good manager should let Xavi be free. Worked around him. He has that spark that makes things happen. But we seemed way too structured and so Frank seemed so reluctant to use Xavi to go against his system. So we instead looked toothless. Imagine if we hadn’t scored all those set pieces...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton, White Hart Lane, Sat April 18th, 5.30pm***

    We can win our home matches v Leeds and Everton. We can win away at Wolves. Do that and we still have a chance to survive. Disappointed that we let the result slip but it’s far from over.

    Xavi Simons

    I can understand his booking. It was a moment of pure emotion. The goal wasn’t just a tap in. Surely we don’t want to rob the game of pure passion and emotions?!

    Xavi Simons

    And he delivered v Brighton. Sadly it wasn’t enough as we couldn’t hold on but he was excellent. He’s a true star so good to see him shining bright. Hopefully he can find similar form in our remaining fixtures.
