The national press are cottoning on

I have been banging on about belief all season and the national press have now caught up, they are now starting to talk about Spurs having belief, probably because they haven't taken us as genuine title contenders until now.

Spurs wouldn't have got to where we are without belief all season, you can't just believe after three-quarters of the season, then it's too late. You have to believe from the start to put yourself in the position in the first place, it doesn't just happen.

Mauricio Pochettino was clear after the game, Spurs have a plan and we are following that plan. Clearly when you listen to the players that is one game at a time and treat every competition seriously. Ben Davies reveals that when he joined up with the Wales squad and told them about training under Pochettino that they don't believe him.

“Some of the players don’t believe it, but we’re not complaining when we’re second in the League and we’re playing better than a lot of teams in this League. It makes us feel proud of it.”

He then went on to talk about belief and the fact that there is no disbelief from the players that we are in this position.


“Maybe it’s a surprise to other people but, as a group, this is what we want to be doing. Everybody here is trying to push themselves as far as they can. 
“We haven’t discussed anything yet. We know we’ve put ourselves in a good position and as good as we could. It’s really about the next game and every game is massive for us from here on in."

The Manchester City game is history now, the fans can enjoy it and maintain the positive atmosphere that the name Tottenham Hotspur conjures up. That was part of the message I have been trying to get across to supporters, it isn't just a players thing, it is a club, a community and everyone has their part to play.


Why in this season would you be calling for a chairman's head, it is utterly ludicrous, especially when you look at the mess Randy Lerner has made of Aston Villa, who I believe were around 6th when he took over, or the mess Mike Ashley has made at Newcastle United.

We have talent coming through who are a year nearer being ready, Josh Onomah has been getting cameos to prepare him, Alex Pritchard is getting some game time under his belt for next season. Can you see Spurs players wanting to leave? I see them all signing new contracts. 


I had someone email me earlier in the season saying there is no pint developing youth because they will just leave, we will never have the pull to keep them, mind you he also said Jan Vertonghen was useless and Vlad Chiriches was a brilliant defender! There was a man who didn't have it mentally.

This side do not look like previous Spurs sides, they are having the right mental traits drilled into them and where we are in the table shows the tough regime approach works, that takes away any doubts and that improves players.


The run-in is not to be feared but embraced. You get the impression Davies couldn't care less what the national press think, the players believe in themselves.
