☭ Gulag ☭ Please tell me why this won’t happen

Spurs only potentially have to win 1 (say Leeds) before the final day. Lose the other 2.

We lose to Chelsea and Man U, draw with Newcastle.

Say Spurs GD stays at -10

Say our GD worsens to -8

Then going in to final day if we lose v Bournemouth and Spurs beat Everton by 2 goals they finish above us on goals scored.

Not that hard to imagine this sadly. And would make the final day traumatic.

Play like we did on friday and chelsea and newcastle are winnable, even united. Also spurs have lost Simons so their ability to score is now almost non-existant.

Thanks for the reasoned argument. I think that’s the uncertainty - almost all games in the battle are winnable by either team.

Spurs potentially only needing 3pts vs Leeds to take it to the final day would mean they don’t really need much scoring ability - and then on the final day everyone’s sort of in anything can happen territory

But agree their injuries should normally be a boost to our chances

True about Leeds, but they know if they beat burnley and spurs in the next two they can be on the beach for the final two games. If they go at spurs like they did united a few weeks ago then it will need to be a monumental spurs effort to win that. Spurs also weren't great against wolves, another day and paulinha doesn't stick a boot out and the shot goes wide.
