			It's been such a crazy season you could argue Stoke, Liverpool or Everton still could go on a run and crash into the top 4. Even Chelsea is kind of lurking there as well. No doubt this will be one of the crazier finishes to a PL season in years.

	And the first question is for you, Karl Marx. The Hammers - The Hammers  is the nickname of what English football team? 'The Hammers? (shot of Karl Marx furrowing his brow- obviously he hasn't a clue) No? Well bad luck there, Karl.Quote:

			It's odd, it's the first NLD that I'm not really looking forward to seeing. The only solace that I can take from the situation is that while Spurs may very well finish above us, we'll still be a bigger club. I hope Kroenke et al. doesn't piss that away too.

			The NLD is actually front page on ESPN right now. Shows what a monster game it really is. Let's hope for a good game and not a "who can choke the least" contest.

			Ospina with two brilliant saves so far. No missing Cech yet.

			This should be a ridiculously intense last 15. Lloris needs to save that though.

			Pretty awesome game overall. Leicester will be the big winners if they can get 3 points today. Spurs fans have to almost feel like this is a loss though.

			fair result in the end. Arsenal did well with 10 men (well, at least after the two goals).

I think the big winners will be Leicester and Arsenal supporters. It's weird to be happy with a draw in the NLD, thanks for bringing me down to this Wenger!
 
It was mentioned on yesterday's Arsecast that Leicester and Spurs are not put under the microscope as much as teams like Arsenal. So while Leicester and Spurs are in great form, they do indeed have some weaknesses that can be exploited. I'm wondering if Tottenham's defeat and draw this week might provide some evidence.

I don't think its like a loss.  Obviously the three points would've been nice and I thought that once Arsenal were down to ten men and Kane scored that it would happen.  The game was more even than it started out though, and there were a couple times when I though that Spurs were lucky to keep all 11.  The first was Lamela with a bad challenge while the ref was playing advantage, and the more obvious was Dier.  
 
Really though, it was the second weekend in a row that Spurs ran into a lucky keeper.  The near goal (that was say an inch away for Kane), and the Lamela near-goal while it was still 0-0.  That Lamela goal would've been pure luck, but the Ramsey goal for Arsenal was pretty much luck shortly after. Clearly Arsenal had some chances as well and could've walked away with the three points, but they weren't that impressive either.  Statistically this was a pretty even game, aside from Spurs creating a lot more offence and having the edge in shots.

That goes back to what I said above about Spurs not being put under the microscope. If Arsenal or Liverpool were to concede to an equalizer when they are up a man at home in a derby, people and pundits would be saying that Champions get those three points.
 
Watching the City/Villa match now and this is sad, I feel bad for Villa.

			West Ham with three in 12 minutes to steal a win.
