NOBODY appears capable of cementing their place in the top four of the Premier League.

Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal are fighting for third and fourth but all have recently slipped up as they look to secure Champions League football for next season.

Their plights have not gone unnoticed around the world and La Liga side Sevilla were quick to poke fun at their European neighbours with a hilarious post on social media.

Sevilla are currently locked in a top-four battle of their own.

Currently fifth in La Liga, they trail fourth-placed Getafe on goal difference with four matches left to play.

And they took to Twitter to aim a dig at the Premier League quartet after Tottenham were beaten at home by West Ham on Saturday afternoon.

A post from the club’s official account read: "Yo Premier League, if none of your teams want 4th place could you just give it to us? Would make life easier."

Tottenham are now in danger of missing out on the top four just months after they were challenging Liverpool and Manchester City for the title.

Manager Mauricio Pochettino admits their busy schedule has taken its toll on a squad that is already stretched because of injuries.

Michail Antonio scored the only goal of the game as Spurs fell to their first defeat at their new stadium.

They face Ajax in the first leg of their Champions League semi-final on Tuesday meaning they will only have had less than three full days rest.

"The stress and the fatigue arrived,” Pochettino said after the West Ham defeat.

“We are competing with circumstances that are not the best.

"We arrived for this game in a different condition and that was an important factor in the second half. It was really tough today.

"We cannot say now we were thinking about Tuesday.

"We wanted to win the three points to be in our position and arrive to the Champions League game in a very good mood and way, but it wasn't and now we need to move on."
