Spurs still need another 4 points to make sure of finishing in the top 3, and as we know 4th place this year might not mean CL football.

 

If they do slip up and draw or even lose, they will have handed us the title effectively and they'll start to feel the hot breath of Man City and Arsenal on their neck.

 

It would be hilarious if after all that's happened this season, Arsenal went on and pipped them to 2nd place on the last day. Much as I dislike Arsenal, I'd really be happy to see that happen.

 

They are going to feel more pressure going into this game than they have in recent matches because from now on every match is a must win for them. Should be interesting tonight.

To be fair, it'd be absolutely hilarious if Arsenal pipped Spurs to 2nd place lol

We want WBA  to win this, as good as we are there's no guarantee of getting anything at Old Trafford. Do we really want only a 2 point gap going into the last 2 games?

 

Can see WBA making this extremely difficult for Spurs. I think there was possibly a feeling amongst them that we may have cracked after what happened in the West Ham game yet we came back better than before!

I hope pulis has them drilled and they don't concede in the first 20 minutes like they did against arsenal,if they can somehow frustrate the spuds mores the better.

I'm with you Peter. If Albion can just frustrate them for half an hour and not bend over and take it up the back end like Stoke did then the game could get interesting. As with us yesterday an early goal and that will be that.

The same Berahino that is desperate to join Spurs? doubt it would endear him to their fans if he was to deny them tonight!

I'm sure Claudio will drill it into the players (if necessary - hopefully not) to assume that Spurs will win every game and that we need to win the title, not hope it falls into our laps.

 

There's more chance of us winning at Old Trafford than of WBA getting a point at Spurs.

 

The WBA match is a "free hit" for us, with no expectations, just an outside chance of a freak result.

 

Chelsea v Spurs will be a nervous watch if they're in a position to cut the gap to 2 or 3pts....but fun if Spurs need a win to keep the gap to 5pts and to stay in the race.

Hahahaaa I don't know why but I think they're gonna get something tonight. Spurs have been in disgustingly good form recently and another 4-0 win should be on the cards but it's West Brom, they are the horriblest team in the league and I can see Craig Gardner scoring two rippers and it finishing 2-2.

Don't think so. Wishful thinking really. I fully expect Spurs to get the 3 points, though perhaps not by a huge scoreline.
But so long as we take that 5 points, we'll be fine.

However, regardless of tonight, if we win at Old Trafford we could still win the title if they then fail to beat Chelsea -They'd be on 71 or 72 points and would only be able to manage a total of 77 or 78 - So I don't know why the BBC are saying they definitely need to lose to WBA tonight for us to win the title in our next game?!

I think they mean for us to confirm it at Old Trafford they need to drop points tonight. If they win, then us beating Utd would still require Chelsea doing us a favour the following day so technically we're not confirming anything at Utd unless West Brom do the business tonight.

Think ranieri is playing some great mind games with spurs 4 opponents to motivate them.. 'I believe spurs will win all 4 games'

Apart from the Chelsea game I can't see them dropping points.
