Looking at their remaining fixtures and the only points I can se Spuds dropping are against Arsenal and Man United. Since both of them have been shite this season and the fact that the United game may be meaningless for them by then, Spuds may win out their remaining games.

Yeah that what they said the other night when comparing fixtures but their thing was it's hard to see where either of us would drop. Thing is however not many predicted we'd lose to Palace so less straightforward then that. Hopefully they'll have a shock result but after how things turned around Wednesday doesn't look as likely. We need to not go stupid! 

Weird to see them so high up again though. Last season didn't have much effect really. Lost the league and bounced back

Boooo!!

They are in excellent form..I expect them to win remaining games...We need to win 6 games out of remaining 8 ...They are pushing us all the way...we need to be more focused and must win today's game to relieve pressure

We still have 4 of what I would consider very tough games: Man United, Everton, Southampton, and West Brom.

Sprinkle in a couple of clubs desperately battling relegation and we have a very tough run in.

Boro and Sunderland will be gone by the time we play them. Also Palace, Leicester and Hull will be anything but easy away for Spurs.

We're neck-and-neck the best 2 teams in England. We have the firepower, they have the chemistry.

If we don't win the league, fingers must be pointed towards only Costa & our lack of goals from midfield.

True, true. Those games won't be easy for them, but with the form they're in, what's at stake (the title) and with arguably their best player in Kane still to return, I can't see them losing to any of those 3.

Can see them dropping points at KP, after last season they hate them almost as much as we do. Marco Silva hasn't lost a home game in 4 years also.

Yes they look absolutely invincible. However I don't believethey won't slip up. They are incredibly lucky atm. Sure, luck comes with confidence but they don't really break oppositions up, they are simply shooting from every distance and angle and they goin. Great to watch for their fans but they will need more than that against ManU and Arsenal. 

 

But yeah.We must win every game before our trips to Everton and Utd and get at least 2points from there. We are under massive pressure and there are signs weare notimmune to that after all. , the last 2 game s were nervous as fuck and full of errors

thank fuck we still got a slender lead and don't play them anymore.

Tottenham and Chelsea are the best two teams in the league. They have the better defenders, we have the better attack. But with Alli scoring 13 goals in his last 15, son scoring freely and Costa more interested in quarrels instead of goals, I'm beginning to think tottenham have the better attack. Only Hazard is tipping the attack scale in our favor

Leicester to take points off Spurs because they hate them is hardly a strong incentive for them as compared to us, Arsenal or even West Ham. Problem with Spurs facing Leicester, Hull etc is that they'll likely face both on the final weekend of the season, when they could be safe and have 0 motivation left. If we're going to win the title, you hope we would have sealed it by then rather than still hoping for teams to beat/draw with Spurs.

Technically Newcastle and Saints had no motivation vs Spurs last season and we know what happened there. Also Boro and Sunderland will likely be gone by the time we face them. And given the comtempt Spurs fans treated Leicester with last season, i can imagine they would love to kill there dreams at the King Power.
