hopefully Spurs progress in Europe
they will be playing Benfica in the next round which will be 2 tough games

Shankly Gates

Keeping the good mood going...

K-9

Massive last 2 wins for us, hugely pyschologically important for us and Spurs. They've to play Spurs, Arsenal and Sothampton before we play them.

NukaCola

Thats effectively a 7 point lead on Spurs and 12 points on the next closest team........

My Spurs head Bro-in-law is upset again ... Fookin Lovin it HaHa

Ardent

Wonderful result! Spurs were awful today, and I really can't see them picking up more points than us over the remainder of the season.

Fourth looking really good lads!

mada999

lovely from Norwich.... 6pts ahead now in 4th... I'm loving it!!!!!!!

Agueroooo

32 goal difference and only one place between us.

fűck me John_W and all his staticians should see how close we are.

the boys up front are doing their bit..now lets spend some serious money on a W.C DM and another wad on a W.C CB to partner Sakho.

shore up our leaky as fűck defence as push on.

Its only when your running at your best do you really see your true weaknesses

Shambolic at the back again today lads. Whats the story ?

Lapin

Norwich fan wondering where all the Spurs supporters are

We are unbeaten this year in the league.

20 points from a possible 24.

For those of you who want to watch Ilori, Valencia vs Granada is now on.

A few points from the match today, we were way too open, Gerrard kept losing Shelvey and a better player would have scored 3. Agger is poor against more physical strikers. This affects Skrtels game. I think Agger will be moved on this summer.
Allen should have come on for Coutinho at half time. Moses is crap. I wouldn't even bother having him on the bench at this stage.

Agreed with all of that, pretty much how I saw the game aswell.

Make it 7 as the goal difference won't be made up

Another 20 from the next 24 would make things very interesting indeed!!

Fantastic week. We won, Everton and Spurs lost.

Before we played United, we have games against Sunderland and Southampton. If we can even get 4 points from those games, that leaves us on 60 points with 9 to play. The 4th place spot reply with is ours to lose.

Utopia Parkway

3 away games on the trot now since the Sunderland game got rearranged.

Southampton, Man U and Cardiff away.

MR NINE

Great result for us, but perhaps even better news for us is how bad spurs were. They were second best throughout and never looked overly dangerous. I know norwich are a very good side at home, but spurs were still very poor today. I expect them to drop quite a few points in march. Id say we can afford to drop 15 points and still get fourth.

Nice to have some breathing room there in 4th!

Title is still a bit of an optimistic dream at this stage imo, but it's nice that we've pushed our way in to that group which had been pegged as a 'top 3' for a while, and out of the group labelled as CL contenders.

In a commanding position now with 11 games left, and it's a case of not messing it up from here on out.

Yip, neither of them will overhaul that GD.

Just saw the Spurs result !!

Delighted is an understatment

Lord Trollington

Beat spurs at home and not lose away to United it would be hard seeing us being beaten to 4th spot.

That really is great stuff.

Lads I don't get this constant 7 points talk, we are not effectively 7 points ahead. If we lose three and the have two wins and a draw they go ahead. We are 6 points clear with a superior goal difference.

Lord Trollington

Chris Hughton really is a gent.

K-9

Closer to top than 4th, white coats would have been needed if I thought that at the start of the season.

We need 20/33 points to finish on 76 which is effectively 77 for us, we can fall below our target of 2 ppg, which given the next 3 away games is good.

Spurs need 27/33!

United need 11 wins!

I suppose the point is they need that draw or 1 point more, we don't.

Sherwood looked pretty deflated in that interview. Lovely!

Jesus when you put it like that that is mightily impressive!

I would say the run of fixtures was slightly easy, but still impressive stuff and type of stat that would make you dream about stuff we should not yet be dreaming of!

and do you think shipping three goals a game with Gerrard as sole DM is acceptable? Liverpool are getting away with it right now - the luck will run out with Suarez clearly getting tired and a bit grumpy.

The league table doesn't lie ! We are in 4th and 4 points off Chelsea because LFC have earned 4th this season .

It's more like 6 and a half points really.

SlickRic

after several unwelcome heart attacks earlier, what a fúcking beautiful, perfect day this turned out to be.

Agueroooo

Get Rodgers to sign on that dotted line.

I'm telling ya he is turning some big heads of the game, and his style, composure, philosophy and calibre in someone so young is something that comes around every once in a while.

managers like Rodgers are like chickens teeth.

I for one will be very happy when I hear he has signed a new long term contract.

PropJoe10

Great day today. Concerned about the defence though to say the last, Agger/Skrtel is a disaster. The sooner Sakho is back fit again, the better!

Stargate

Things went our way today , 3 points was massive , can we just do one thing ?
Please sent Victor Moses home . His effort today was abysmal !!

messinkiapina

I can understand why people are so anxious to see Sakho back, but hasn't he looked just as dodgy as Skrtel/Agger/Toure so far this season?

They're all decent players on paper, maybe it's coaching problem.
