Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp says they can be proud of their campaign this season.
Some fans of the north London club have been frustrated at seeing their club fall out of the reckoning for the title this year, but Redknapp insists they should be happy with how the team have performed this season.
"I know just how disappointed people will be if we don't make the Champions League. I am not silly. I understand that because of the position we were in," he said.
"But at the start of the year we would have been fifth or sixth favourites to make the Champions League in all honesty.
"We are looking for Champions League qualification. I think we will get a Champions League place, we have an FA Cup semi-final to come against Chelsea. These are great times for us.
"Last season we got to the quarter finals of the Champions League.
"We are getting better all the time. We have established ourselves now. We are right there every year now so there is no reason why Tottenham shouldn't be there every year for the next God knows how many years."
