Defoes not been at his best but a bad injury (you can still tell now when he plays he's not 100% comfortable), Harry's constant rotation of the front line and a shift in the way the team plays post vdV joining really haven't helped
also not been the easiest last year or two for him, I think 3 or 4 of his family have died in that time

I'm stuck between thinking Spurs can catch City if City aren't at their best and that we can catch Spurs if they're not at their best. I don't know what I want.

Had a dream last night and we lost 4-0, and Arsenal missed a last minute penalty to make it 5.
Good job I was dreaming though.Surprisingly confident at the moment. Bale's looked good the last few weeks which is good to see after his back problem and Lennon can get the job done as it is. If we win though, VDV has to play well. Really slacked off the last 6 weeks or so, so a big performance tomorrow and I'll be very happy. Don't think it matters who we start upfront tomorrow, Crouch will only get ping'd time and time again for soft fouls, you never know what Pav's gonna turn up and Defoe's so devoid of confidence this season that playing him isn't worth it atm. Although it's not been easy for JD at all.

It's fairly clear in my mind we won't win tonight.
And I'm horrendously close to wanting to lose.
I'd much rather drop out of the title race now, than have more hope built up only to then lose to United at the Emirates and have our faces rubbed in it.
Chelsea will catch us regardless, I've been harping on since the start of the season just how hard our run in is whilst everyone else in the media is adamant it's easy. Bolton away, Stoke away, Fulham away. Games we always struggle with. Thrown in with United and Villa and Liverpool at home in there.
Also remember saying they were all fixtures you could look at and realistically see us dropping points in all of them, and that to have any chance in the league we'd have to be clear. Well we're not. I'd be surprised if City or Spurs caught us, but even that's not out of the question with this run in.
That said, a big result tonight would lift the team no end for one big push with a fit XI back.

Tonight for me is what decides the title.
If Spurs win, Arsenal are 7 points back with only 5 to go, but if they win then it's just four points, and if they beat us at the Emirates its only 1 point, plus chances of us dropping points against Chelsea & Blackburn.

Pretty excited about tonight's game, and if we play like we did against Madrid at the lane (Minus Gomes
), we could pull off a great result.

Im seriously thinking that we will push for the title which would be INCREDIBLE considering the season we've had.

It doesn't matter what the result is tonight, as I'll be disappointed. If Arsenal don't win, then I think the title is all but Man Utd's, ending the title race for the neutral. And if Spurs don't win, then fourth place is all but City's, and I'd rather Spurs took it.

Everything says Arsenal won't win tonight, I'm going for 2-1 to them though, don't know why. Hopefully they'll gain some confidence from United dropping points last night, probably will be in a winning position on then fold.. again.

It looks a strong line-up for Spurs to be honest. It'll be a good match, this.
Well, I'm hoping it's better than the shite that was on last night.

- Why does this game have to be on at the same time as the Copa Del Rey final?
Anyway, I'm going for a score draw.
