I agree with DJ that, in the grand scheme of things, and taking the emotion out of it (though it's hard), EL games have to be the primary focus.
I hate drawing with Spurs, let alone losing, but if someone said to me right now that we'd drop points to them but progress to the quarter-finals of the EL, I'd take it, even if I may not like the circumstances.
Ideally we can win all 3 games over the next couple weeks though
And a EL final with Spurs would be horrible. Winning it would be the best feeling ever, but losing would just be unbearable. And after Chelsea dismantled us a couple years ago in the final, I'm not sure how I'd deal with it if Spurs beat us in a final too.
Stakes would be too high - I hope it doesn't come to that!
I’m really not confident
Our home form is horrendous. Our form in general is inconsistent at best. Our record against Maureen is terrible. Kane, Alli and Bale, players who traditionally do well against us are in good form.
Can’t bring myself to predict a defeat though just because it’s Spurs and in my lifetime I can’t remember them ever doing the double over us. Would happily take a draw.
If the referees do their jobs properly Spurs should run out comfortable winners, they have better players.

This game feels like the Rohan Ricketts Derby due to their league positions.

The first leg at the toilet bowl went down as expected, sadly.
Can't wait to play them at the Emirates though.
Arsenal 2-1.
Kane with his standard penalty, of course.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If the game was a month ago I’d agree, we were looking atrocious.
We’ve changed things up a bit now though, conceded 1 goal in the last three games while scoring 9, with Kane, Son & Bale looking like they’re enjoying their football again. Those 3 on form are a nightmare for any defence. I’m starting to feel more confident of a win, but I’d take a point to make it 10 from 12 with a view to beating Villa and getting into the EL quarters.

Sorry Ace but you’ve got caught up in the unnecessary hyperbole of beating Burnley, Fulham and Crystal Palace.
Mourinho isn’t changing and we are still not a good side.
We will take 1 point from the 2 league games you mention if we are lucky.

Haha. You weirdo. The old conspiracy theorist enters the room. In real life sometimes 'lesser' teams or players win and it's no ones fault. We could easily beat you and if we do tough sheite. Deal with it, man up and accept that it happens in sport

Even the Willie Young or Adebayor derby
Spurs will play exactly the same way as they played at home on the counter and Arteta will fall right into Jose's hands yet again, we all know how it's going to pan out
Lets hope Arsenal will run a riot and smash half a dozen goals.,

Odd comment from a spurs fan. Wholeheartedly agree though. No reason why we won't win. 50-50 I'd say. Will come down to individual mistakes and bottle.
