Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur 
Oh what a difference a year makes!
In the early hours of the morning on 6 May 2010 local time, Crouch’s solitary goal was enough for us to secure 4th place with a game left to play, sending the Lilywhite faithful into a cheering frenzy all around the world. This season, destiny is out of our hands. We must win our remaining 3 matches to have any chance of possibly finishing 4th. But Manchester City only needs to win tonight to all but seal Champions League qualification for next season.
The one concern for City heading into the game will be their recent record against Spurs, which does not make for impressive reading. They have won just one of their last 15 Premier League meetings with us, collecting just six points from a possible 45 during that run. City have also failed to find the target in their last three fixtures against Sours.
We have a host of injuries to key players. Our left side is decimated with both BAE and Bale out. Modric and Crouch are iffy. Our recent results suggest, in my opinion, that all is not well in the locker room. I have a strong suspicion the lads do not like ‘arry tactics and team selection. Regardless, I am counting on the lads to decide for themselves to fight for every last point. We must have the mental tenacity to compete till the final whistle and finish the season well.
That’s all I ask really. COYS!!!
