If Spurs can get their shit together quickly they can make Europe.
The 2 extra points they should have after beating United at Old Trafford would have come in handy.That ball crossed the line and what makes me laugh is if it had happened to United then they would still be crying foul about it.

I'm not sure mate - I think it's possible,it all comes down to the luck of the draw I think.
Newcastle will start warm favourites against us and given your guys form recently Bolton will be a handfull.
I would love to see Spurs v Gunners FA Cup final.

That's him - he may go on and win a shitload of silverware this year,I'm not saying his a bad coach,to tell you the truth I don't really know.
From what I've seen of him this year though he is an arrogant fuck.

I think they're pretty much all arrogant fucks lol. I use to be a strong supporter of the Azzurri (Italian national team) but I kinda dislike them now mostly because of the arrogant players and fans.

Didn't Man Utd lose AC Milan as well? Does anyone know that score?

Man U are out - AC Milan go through after beating them 1-0 for the second time in a fortnight.
Good to see.

Arsenal are 1-0 up against Bayern - they need another one though for the aggreiate.
Juve just got one against Real also - that tie is all square now.

You have to love The Champs League - hopefully Spurs can get in one day.

The North London Derby ranks as one of the most passionate and highly contested local derbies in world football. Arsenal's games against Tottenham Hotspur have, over the years, proven to be unremittingly competitive where the only suitable result in the eyes of the supporter is victory.

This DVD showcases nine memorable Arsenal victories against Spurs including the 5-0 away win at white Hart lane in 1978, the epic Semi-Final replay of the League Cup match in 1987 and recent classics including the Thierry Henry inspired victory at Highbury in 2002.

However I'm more interested in seeing if Spurs can finish in the top 7 to make Europe next year.
This will be the first time in ages we qualify for Europe if we can do so. :cool:

Not a bad result at Anfield.

Just UEFA if we can stay in top 7.
Mate,it's a stepping stone to bigger things and will help the cash flow,which in turn will help us hold players and buy some top market stuff.

Seemed like Chelsea were in hangover mode after winning the P.League.
I don't think anybody in their right minds would have thought Liverpool would have made it to The Champions League Final. :wtf:

Top four through to UCL: FA
Reuters

The top four teams in the English Premier League will enter next season's Champions League, the Football Association (FA) has said.

"This will not be changed whatever the outcome of Liverpool's Champions League Final in Istanbul on May 25 (against AC Milan)," the FA said in a statement.

"The FA also believes that if Liverpool win in Istanbul and do not finish in the top four in the Premiership, an extra place should be allocated to them in the Champions League next season."

"This is ultimately a matter for UEFA but the FA will continue to make representations on this issue at the highest level," the FA added.

However, UEFA has already confirmed that it is not within the Champions League regulations to allow one country to have more than four teams entering Europe's showpiece competition.

"This is the best way for the competition as far as next season is concerned," UEFA spokesman William Gaillard told Sky Sports News.

"The rules stand for one simple reason - there's no free lunch. If you give a fifth spot to an English team you would have to take it away from another nation."

Liverpool, who beat newly-crowned Premier League champions Chelsea 1-0 on Tuesday to reach the Champions League final, are fifth in the Premier League, three points behind Merseyside rivals Everton who also have a game in hand.

Liverpool's remaining two matches are against Arsenal at Highbury and Aston Villa at Anfield, but Everton could clinch fourth place if they beat Newcastle United at home on Saturday and Liverpool fail to win on Sunday.

If Liverpool win the Champions League they could find themselves in a similar situation to Real Madrid in 2000 when the Spanish side won the European Cup but came fifth in La Liga.

Then the Spanish FA nominated Real to defend the trophy and sent fourth-placed Real Zaragoza into the UEFA Cup.

The FA's main board took its decision to confirm the qualification of the top four after a recommendation from its Professional Game Board, which met earlier on Thursday.
