We need to keep that gap with a win tomorrow and then show them how it's done when we go to WHL.
And that is why a quality team will nullify them and beat them.
Arsenal are just above average, and a draw would not have been unjust.

Spurs are absolutely nothing. A couple of injuries to Bale etc & a couple of defeats & that team would struggle to beat anybody in the league. The rags have done their job this season; cashed in on a league full of transitional teams with basic, weak defenses. Spurs are able to do the same.
The fact that these people are 2 points behind us just shows what a pile of shite we have been. The excuses coming out about lack of signings is pathetic. 'If we had Van Persie..blah fucking blah..' Well if Spurs Liverpool Arsenal Chelsea or Everton added his goals, they would finish above us, so basically all we are worth could be wiped out by any of those sides finding another top goalscorer.
What a fucking mess we have made of this. We have a good enough squad to have gone through this season unbeaten.

And a manager that gets carried away with his tactical geniuses.

Are we struggling mid table with our quality team ? why should bobby take note ... btw i think he already knows about these two
Something we could implement as a plan b when walking the ball into the net isn't working.
...I don't think we need to be taking lessons on how to play from teams lower in the table than us. Roberto has it covered.

Why not? Perhaps if we had Bale we'd be top of the league, not 12 points behind.

We can deal with them.

It seems that way to me. Sometimes I think even Robinho could have played here during this season. Especially when teams come to us, they generally don't seem to have a clue about what do to and I mean.... ok we're good, but we're not that good, are we? There must be something a team like Stoke can do at our stadium besides standing in their own penalty area and hoping that time runs out. That wouldn't have happened a few seasons ago under similar circumstances, would it?
