***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea, Tue May 19th, 8.15pm, Stamford Bridge ***

Still completely weird watching the coverage and the assumption now that West Ham are basically down. I just don’t think that’s the case. It’s a massive step forward for us, but lose to Chelsea which we’re more than capable of doing, and if West Ham win at home, and we lose at home, both of which are very possible to happen…then we’re down.

All very true, but to be honest at this point of the season, if we can’t take a point against Chelsea and/or Everton then we will deserve to go down as we have got ourselves in this situation.

We can absolutely lose both, and West Ham can beat Leeds. However the players should be going into these next two bang up for them knowing they need one point to continue playing Premier league football, West Ham have given them an a lightly chance back - if we mess it up from here we only have ourselves to blame.

It’s mad, we’re so close to safety and yet miles off at the same time. Personally I think it goes to the last day with us not taking anything from Chelsea, but I have to believe we can get at least a point from Everton.

I do agree, if we go down from the position we were handed at the end of the Arsenal / West Ham game, we’ll completely deserve it.

Even I Mr Negative think that at this point we are probably safe. We need just a point between the two games, we should be capable of that and to some extent the pressure being off a little bit should actually help us feel confident and the football to flow.
 
Great to get this done Tuesday.

To get it done at the B

6% chance
 
if we can continue playing well away, defend in a low block, let them come at us and grab a goal any which way

we have massively improved and become more positive in our in game decision making

keep calm and support the lads
I think we were 3rd best away from home in the PL.

fudge the low block nonsense, what are we then going to counter attack with?. It would be like the home game this season.

Pressure nearer their goal all the way.
 
As odd as it sounds. I wouldn't risk Maddison in this one now we have Sunday

Hmm, I think I would. Well, depending on a few factors anyway…
He was passed fit to play last week…and did, coming on in 2nd half.
He played well, and hopefully pulled up well.
Assuming he did, then I feel the same opportunity could be available again.
Reckon some of that will be dependent on the score and state of the game.
Doubt he’d start the game on Tue anyway, but if a point or 3 are within our grasp around the hour mark then I think it’s a conversation.
Putting it all on the last day in a one-off game in which anything could happen (which would suit WH)? if we have a card we can play before then to get it done and dusted, then I think it would/should be considered.
