No chance but we might finally be a threat from set pieces if we did! I see our set piece record is officially the worst in the PL this season. We all know it and have seen it with our eyes but nice to know the stats back that up!Jeff Stelling and his minions were just talking about Stains and where would JWP end up.
JS said that JWP would be a perfect fit for the Albion, seeing he likes the South Coast.
Would be nice
Agreed, I think a Villa win is better than a Spurs one if we are aiming for 6th and Europa League. A draw is the best result though I’d have thought

We DON'T want a Villa win - that would put 7th. place in jeopardy.

Our record would be better if VAR wasn't there to disallow Mac Allister free kicks, perhaps?

Spurs don’t really want the Europa or Conference. They want the new manager to not have that distraction and have extra time on the training pitch. I think their performances lately and for the rest of the season will bear that out.

Has he actually had any free kicks disallowed?

He'd do well, that's for sure.
Michael Carrick, if he gets Middlesbrough promoted and does well elsewhere, would make a good England manager too in four or five years.
A draw (2 points to rivals instead of 3) sounds like the best result, I can't really put much thought into any of it, as I'm still dead inside following Monday's ****ing disaster.

Yes.....or was it his goal that was disallowed and the free kick allowed? Apologies if I got it the wrong way round.

Looking at the table I'm thinking ' What's the problem?'.
Villa winning, Spurs & Villa 2 pts above us, inferior GD and we've 3 games in hand.
Then I see who we have left.

Yeah the only free kick I can remember is in that Leicester game that was allowed. The goal, a real rocket, was disallowed after var tried it's very best to find a fault that really wasn't a fault.

I think a draw would be perfect for us. Our goal difference keeps us in poll position.
If Leeds need a win, then they could go all gung-ho and let Spurs beat them on the counter - if they need a point, maybe they'll play more sensibly and restrict Spurs? It's difficult to call. But yes, having them already relegated wouldn't be ideal.
We've not got to play Everton again have we?

Would help if Spurs had a bloody shot at least

Roy Hodgson must be a fairly decent manager after all, makes all the gloaters on here about his appointment look a little silly, clearly not a long term solution but certainly knows a thing or two about setting a team up that fella
