I was shitting my shorts last week. Yesterday at 85’ I saw it was nil-nil and I’m all “take me now, Lord.” It’s looking good.
This weekend all but cemented the title for the Gunners, so early congrats there. The only thing better will be when and if they ever announce the punishment to the cheaters in light blue which should occur in this century.
The beauty of the EPL (European leagues in general) is there are so many races going on still so every match does matter for the most part. West Ham or Spurs in a relegation battle which is nuts as it is possible one actually goes down. I get the Spurs are pulling people off the streets due to injuries, but it's still crazy to see. HUGE result for them yesterday. I think they are due to get a few players back after this next break which gets them across the line in the end. The race for top 5 after the top 2 is completely up in the air with 4 teams fighting for 3 spots. Hell if Brentford or Everton get hot they can sneak in there if teams drop in form.

As a Spurs fan, I foresee a trip to the laundromat on Sunday morning.
If they get relegated, I am NOT subscribing to Paramount+. I already have too many subscriptions. I will just rely on their free audio stream.
When they’re one point above relegation, I certainly do not feel safe. I guess I could look on the bright side of
having a -7 GD compared to 
-15 and 
-19.
Google tells me that the last time they were relegated was at the end of 76-77. Manatree was only seven and not yet a fan.
@manatree:
glass half empty take: yes, you should be concerned. The Spurs showed very little today. West Ham has been playing well of late, and you're only 1 point up on them.
glass half full take: there is an International window the next couple of weeks, so the Spurs have time to get healthy, and to shore up some things.
Overall, the team has almost no room for error for the rest of the season. That's never a good situation to be in when you're hovering around the relegation line. But crazy things (both good and bad) have a way of happening late in the EPL season. Were I Spurs fan, I certainly would be frustrated, and worried about the situation, while hoping for the best.

While I first started pulling for Tottenham & Dortmund when I was in middle school, I couldn’t really follow them until I got to college. While I believe that Pro-Rel is a great system, I’ve never had to experience it. Dortmund was last relegated in 72. It shall be interesting.

It's absurd at how a lot of these Europen soccer teams fire managers willy nilly. Forest has had, I believe, four managers in just this season, and where has that gotten them? That Tottenham team has biggr problems than the manager; they've only won two home Premier League games all season, and that league isn't really all that great this season. They have a lot of very unmotivated players.Igor Tudor at Tottenham: 'Impossible for him to stay' - what next for Spurs?
