    a drawwould mean we are 7 points off 4th so don't see how thats better

    we shouldn't focus on Arsenal as thay are 5th

    you're assuming the teams above arsenal now wont finish below them ... its much better a draw ... we aren't going to make up 6 points in a weekend ... draw and we have a better chance in the long run of catching up both chelsea AND tottenham and just generally deflates both teams

    i think we gotta say goodbye to 4th and try for 5th. this meaning a Spurs win is best for us. Plus we get one over Arteta

    a draw is better , saying that we have to play both away from home those games could be important if either of them slip up in the coming weeks

    cmon. get real.......Spurs are away now. and Bale is coming into superb form. No stopping them. Our best bet is to beat Arsenal and hold off LIverpool to the 5th spot

    i agree, Bale will  be in form for the rest of the season and Spurs will win every game......just like Bale was and Spurs did for the first 20 games of the season

    I agree with the original post. It is almost certain that the FA Cup Final will contain teams from the top five (or Everton, hopefully), in which case the Europa League will take the sixth position team from the League. Fifth position, therefore, is of no more value to us that sixth. Fourth is therefore our only real ambition. We will probably have to beat all of the London teams and have a bit of luck elsewhere, but it is what we are hoping for. An Arsenal win today will help. In addition, Spurs could do with a bit of wind taking out of their sails. They are getting too big for their boots, the upstarts. The notion of their cultured, debonair manager losing and having to shake hands with a sleeping bag after the match should help that cause. Come on you Bummers.

    5th or 6th Charlie would be about 500k in prize money, for a club like ors that's a lot of money.

    £20m-£50m reward for fourth place, though. Worth a punt, IMO.

    only if you get to the group stages of the CL, that would mean us getting a favourable draw in the qualifiers, of curse worth a punt and which ever wa you look at it, it should be the clubs aim to finis as high up the eageu as possible
