Yes it’s been all of 12 months since we demolished spurs with a performance of great intensity and verve as we fougbt for the top four trophy :roll eyes:

Well that dealt with my point :rolleyes:

I suppose the fact the AR came on and made a huge difference and seems far more suited to that position than Ozil will be brushed off??Quote:

Great atmosphere again, some good goals and our players giving it handbags with the opposition :cloud9:
Nice to see a manager celebrating properly in the dugouts too.
It sounds a cliche but I can’t remember the last time we looked so ‘up for it’. I particularly liked the scuffle after their first goal when no Spurs c*nt wanted any part of Kolasinac :hehe:Quote:

And ultimately we're once again scrambling around for the top 4 trophy :shrug:Quote:

There will be less scrambling about our 4th place finish this season
You think we're nailed on for top 4?Quote:

Either way, it's a big step towards elevating us away from the top 6 trophy ?Quote:

A top 4 finish is a far more difficult task than in years gone by when the cynicism began. It was more or less a guaranteed top 3 finish of Chelsea, United and ourselves.
If Emery can make us genuine CL place contenders in his first year, it would be a spectacular achievement.
Yep, I do.Quote:

Over the course of 38 PL matches will we finish above -
Man City? No
Liverpool? No
Chelsea? Maybe
Spurs? Probably
Man Utd? Yes
what you worried about?
We’re going to lose to United. And it will be your fault.Quote:

We really should beat them this time, they are awful. Can't help feeling though, that it'll all be a bit "after the Lord Mayor's show" and we'll just not turn up.Quote:
