Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - 'We will not be there.' - Pep Fraudiola

Are clubs as petty as some nfl teams and tank games to screw their rivals? Like when the Eagles sat everyone so the Giants could miss the playoffs?

No. And even if they were, they’d be risking a champions league spot. Trust me, Tottenham are gonna treat the City game like a cup final.

Shouldn't be sitting back, need another goal

Yeah I wasn't a fan of going to a back 5 but we hung on.

Champions/Europa League places and relegation prevent that from happening

That had no business being that stressful but I’m glad we got the win. 3 more cup finals

 

[LiveFromLondon]

We’ve made this game unnecessarily difficult. Even if we win, I’m supremely pissed off with our attitude. It’s not one of potential champions.

Feel like there's a ruthless streak still missing there. There's still an element of late Wenger era feel in the team

No because the higher you place the more money you receive and there is relegation of course.

Right. But if the Spurs clinched the 5th seed no matter the outcome and could roll over so Arsenal doesn’t win the league, wouldn’t they do that?

Bournemouth home
United away
Everton home

win and let the chips fall where they may.

Bournemouth have nothing to play for. Everton are already safe.

You never know which United will show up.

 

[GhostoftheMan]

There is still games left . Arsenal will fall apart, acting Tottenham didn't just have yall on edge for a sec.

 

[Switch]
