next three home games have to be 9 points.

its as simple as that,.

if that happens, i predict we will go into the city away game with a chance of going above them if we were to beat them....

Edin :

Spurs are down for a loss in phase 2.
However, tis important that they front up and play like they did the past 2 seasons (even in 2011 we passed them off the pitch regardless of Crouchies ) .

If only to keep the self-belief and momentum going.

probably, the only way I could see us beating them is if we do what Sunderland.

We are going to lose some of the phase 2 matches.
But that is accounted for by finishing phase 1 on target.

All we ask is that in those defeats, the boys gave the winners an absolute game over 90 mins.

What's this phase 1 & phase 2 all about, it sounds like
American drivel to me,anyway all the best to all the franchise's for the remainder of the soccer season!!

The Arry RDBD view is that we can break the season down to 3 phases. The overall target for the superior Spurs is 76 pts, which effectively means 2 pts per game.

The Arry RDBD index (currently +3) tells us how we are on the schedule. Phase 2 starts with the <Citeh> and ends with the Chelsky game. Phase 2 is the real nasty part.

So the targets are :

Phase 1 : 21 games - 47 pts
Phase 2 : 9 games - 13 pts
Phase 3 : 8 games - 16 pts

If Spurs can keep to those (reasonable - not optimistic or deluded) targets, PL top 4 is done.

We were very poor yesterday.

JoeLewis - but unlike past years, we didn't fold up and lose. I've seen us outplayed at Fulham and West Brom and ended up winners, and we made hard work of the Wigan and Blackburn trips, but still ended up with the points. There are far more positives than negatives at the moment.

Countering that though, Spurs outplayed Stoke and got nothing, and let in goals in the last 5 minutes of both games at Newcastle and Swansea, costing them 4 points. Also against Chelsea had 3 or 4 excellent chances last 15 minutes to take all 3 points.

So whilst it has been an excellent season so far, in reality could have been really blinding.

Still I will take happily what we actually have.
