Lets play the numbers game

With only twelve games to go we are now in the business end of the the season. I believe the title is now between Manchester United and Arsenal. Third and fourth is now between Manchester City, Tottenham and Chelsea. Forget Liverpool any side that condes 8 points in 11 games shouldn't be there in the first place.

Looking at the fixtures chelsea and Spurs both have 4 games against the top 6 and eight against the rest, Manchester City have 3 against the top 6 and 8 against the rest.

Spurs are away to 3 of the top 6, manchester City 2 and Chelsea 1. They all have to play each.

If Spurs don't lose at Manchester City and Chelsea and win their eight agianst the rest then they should finish fourth at worst. The hardest of the home games are Arsenal, Stoke and West Ham, but it looks a good home run but a nightmare final 3 away from home where we play Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool.

It is in Tottenhams hands now, which is obviously good but there is so much work to do. I didn't expect Spurs would do it going into the last half a dozen last season but with wins over Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City managed to seal it.

I have had a good moan about our squad this season which I felt should have been improved in January, however we have enough quality to win the games that matter. It will be nailbiting stuff.
