We should have listen Lollichon!
Spurs won 37 from possible 75 points this season. Less than 50%. Based on everything we saw this season they will lose 15-20 points in the last 13 games. We will lose a lot of points as well. It will be just like last season fight till the end who suck less.
Late goals we conceded against Arsenal, Brighton, Newcastle and Sheffield are so annoying now when every point matters. Spurs in the other hand got lucky with late goal against Wolves away and also with missed penalties by Watford and City today.
If somebody told me a couple of years ago that after Real, Barca, Inter, Bayern and Chelsea we will watch Jose vs Pep classic in match between two small English clubs I wouldn't believe it.

So we are basically playing this season without 5 best goalscorers from last season. No surprise we struggle to score. RLC injured, Eden and Alvaro left for Madrid. And Pedro and Giroud not used by Lampard. We lost Higuain as well.
Pedro and Giroud have been one of the best players in Super Cup game against Liverpool. Frank dropped them after that. That was a mistake. They lost sharpness and it's probably too late for them. They are leaving for free in the summer just like Willian so I'm concerned about their motivation. But we can't really relaid only on young guys till the end of the season so I hope Giroud, Pedro and Willian can still be helpful. We need them.
Have 6 points advantage. 13 games to go. Playing at home against both United and Spurs. Even though Frank said we are underdogs absolutely no excuse not to finish in top4!
