Media building this as pressure day

Christian Eriksen is looking to celebrate his birthday today (Happy Birthday Christian) with three points, Ossie Ardiles is excited, Luka Modric reveals he is watching and rooting for Spurs, Eric Dier is talking of no excuses. Many fans are nervous, this is a big day.

  1. If anything we played better away from home. Confident, as always. Good luck to MP and the boys. COYS
  2. What a week to come starting today with an incredible important game. One at a time like MP says…. COYS


The media talk has been about pressure, the managers all saying the opposition is under more pressure than they are, the media taking sides of course. Pressure is what you make it. Some buckle under it, some rise to the challenge. How will our boys fare?

Mauricio Pochettino has asked then to perform like lions, as they have this season. They have grown in stature and a perceived top four push has turned into a title push, remarkable given the age of the side. Pochettino is showing the importance of a system and having players fit into a system as opposed to trying to fit a system to the players. The latter approach is fine if you keep your players, but no club does, which means reinventing the system each time or reducing the potential pool of players to buy.

The former approach calls for buying intelligent footballers who can adapt, which makes them a valuable commodity. That is the same type of player Sir Alex Ferguson always looked to buy. It isn't enough to simply buy what you believe is the right player though, that player has to totally buy into what you are doing.

If they do that, they have to totally believe in the goals set, they have to totally believe they can win the Premier League at Tottenham with the system. If they totally believe then they will train and play with supreme motivation and commitment, thus producing top performances on a regular basis. You get inconsistent performances when you solely rely on skill and don't totally believe.

Today is a day the players must totally believe they can win, they must focus on the three points and forget the bigger picture, forget the significance of the game.
