Is the game easier for Farke's boys?

Leeds safe.

Spurs need the points.

safety means that the team compete with a certain freedom, so yes, no worries about the outcome.

however spurs are fighting for their lives so it will be a tough game and the answer would be no , not an easy game.

A case of freedom versus determination, and I choose freedom.

we need a win as more money at the end of season re where we end up as we need to buy 4 quality players in the summer. Goalkeeper, CB, number 10 and number 9. hope we sell all our players out on loan apart from Harry Gray and a few in our 1st squad

No, it won't be easier.
A win gives Spurs the chance to open a gap up from West Ham. They will be well up for it

I thought you were changing your avatar footer. Your question has been answered. Or are you keeping it for next season ?

This match has jeopardy for Spurs. Therefore whilst they may race out of the gates they will be playing with angst, whereas we should be able to play with more relaxed mindset and freedom.

I hope we will take the game to them, they will not want to lose and they have some very unpredictable players who often make stupid decisions.

Should be a great watch.

Not easier, but as the result is paramount to Spuds we should be able to pick them off throughout the game. Would like to see the pace of Dan James at some point, that will scare the living daylights out of them. Keep it tight at the back and they will become very desperate.

Definitely easier now the pressure is off and I expect us to play well.

For Spurs a point wouldn't be a bad result.

All the pressure on Spurs, no pressure on Leeds now we are safe, which makes the game easier for us in my opinion.

We should try for an early goal which would make Spurs desperate and likely to over commit going forward. I imagine that they will be very nervous and probably have trouble tying their boot laces in the dressing room. We can go out and show how we can play now that relegation is sorted.

With games coming up against Chelsea and Everton, Spurs see this as 3 points they have to get. They also know that W Ham will be targeting us in the last game.
All the pressure is on them with lots of jeopardy. It’s a free hit for us with no stress.
So definitely easier for us now we are safe.

HArd to tell though I doubt any of our players willbe taking it easier - we seem to have a very honest bunch who will be playing for personal and team pride and wanting to win.

No game in the Premiership is easy, its the toughtest league in the world. I have seen it before were a team gets what they need and then cant continue as they would like. We have a great team spirit and im sure they will go out with the best intentions to play well and win the game, but some times things just fall flat and its hard to keep it going when you know deep down very little matters anymore.
Some fans are talking about wanting to finish as high up the table as possible and the extra money that brings, i fully understand that. But i dont think the players will be too concerned if they didnt get any higher up the table, for them they have already achieved their objective, and thats what mattered most.

It's easier in the sense we don't need a result. I think the West Ham result makes it harder to get a win tonight though

I feel that they will want to finish as high as possible and also think that their motivation might be to finish above Sunderland and show that we are the best of the promoted teams, a personal pride just like how Ampadu revealed we really wanted to beat Burnley after not beating them in the previous 3 matches.
Not about the money I just feel they have a lot of personal pride - similar to last season how the ultimate aim was promotion but after we achieved that we still wanted to win the title.

players want to win, no point turning up and each player will want to play well and score if possible. Darlow will want a clean sheet

Musicman1965 · Post by **Musicman1965** » Mon May 11, 2026 12:16 pm

Definitely No.
Spurs should be up for this bearing in mind their situation.
Leeds are safe but we get more money the higher in the table we finish.
Its an important game and I dare say there will be few West Ham fans cheering us on.
