    Awaiting the walking wounded total to be added up,
    but happy with the CL state of play.

    6 pts in, and the most tedious away leg (travel time,
    time zones) done and dusted already.

    PL (like for like with 2016-17 after 7 games) : Pts = -2 , GF = -5, GA = 0.

    I enjoy it too, but mainly after away games. Dread the home games at the moment though.

    Just think of all of them as away games

    Some stattery on how clinical the goalscoring is currently going.
    Very strong correlation with the PL table placings.

    From that graph it looks like we have scored 2.5 goals more than expected! How do you score half a goal?

    Palace should've scored 8 more goals, apparently. Had they done so, then they'd have scored 8 goals.

    The alarm bells should now be ringing loud on the GF
    (the root cause is irrefutable) .

    PL (like for like with 2016-17 after 9 games) : Pts = 0 , GF = -5, GA = 0.

    A truly decisive week.

    Top of the CL group (on head to head) .
    The remaining CL group fixtures are nothing to fear.

    Getting level with Man Utd means the pressure really
    will be on them now for the PL game next weekend.

    A weaker (but still strong) line-up should be enough to
    deal with the Spanners in the League Cup irrespective
    of it being their next cup final fixture.

    Top of the CL group, automatic last 16
    qualification, all with two games to spare.
    The group of death became the group of meh.

    PL (like for like with 2016-17 after 12 games) : Pts = -1 , GF = -6, GA = +1.

    A third of the season gone, and the above is tolerable IMHO
    given the laboured performance in the first 3 home games.

    Finished top of CL group H with a game to spare. <applause>

    100% PL focus now until at least the FA Cup
    3rd round draw is made.

    Done a provisional map of the PL fixtures alongside the CL KO stages ...

    PL Feb 10 Spurs vs Arsenal
    KO Feb 13–14 2018 - TBC vs Spurs
    KO 20–21 Feb - TBC vs Spurs
    PL Feb 24 Palace vs Spurs
    PL 3 March Spurs vs Huddersfield
    KO 6–7 March - Spurs vs TBC
    PL 10 March Bournemouth vs Spurs
    KO 13–14 March - Spurs vs TBC
    PL 17 March Spurs vs Newcastle

    PL 31 March Chelsky vs Spurs
    QF 3–4 April
    PL 7 April Stoke vs Spurs
    QF 10–11 April
    PL 14 April Spurs vs Citeh

    PL 21 April Brighton vs Spurs
    SF 24–25 April
    PL 28 April Spurs vs Watford
    SF1–2 May
    PL 5 May WBA vs Spurs


    As it stands (assuming Sky do not eff up our PL
    fixtures for their own ends :( ) , things are good unless
    Spurs get to the QFs. In which case the QF fixtures
    are mixed in with PL "6 pointer" games with our rivals.

    No doubt someone here is similarly plotting
    comments well in advance for such an
    eventuality (and the PL form that precedes/
    follows it) ...

    PL (like for like with 2016-17 after 13 games) : Pts = -3 , GF = -9, GA = +2.

    Failing to deal with the Wembley busparquet is showing
    up tangibly now on the goal tallies.
