Bale's hit form at the right time.

Definitely think had the league cup final been last weekend and City won that Mourinho would've gone. But it doesn't seem a tall order to finish fourth.
Lots of tough matches for Spurs - Arsenal (a), Villa (a), Everton (a), Leeds (a), Man United (h), Leicester (a) - and realistically they need 22-23 points in 11 games to have a chance of reaching top-4 (67-68 points is a minimum from the looks of it)

It seems like Spurs have regained their form starting from the second half of WHU game regardless of the loss back then. Bale's form played a huge part in this I believe.

Agree. Think there is too much traffic in front of them. They aren't all going to slip up.
And Liverpool have become rather comfortable to play. They seem to have even abandoned the tactic of hitting crosses and with no creativity it looks rather pitiful

I've said it before but I'm confident we will have a very strong end to the season.

That clash was hilarious. I saw Son go down and take an elbow to the head and thought “oh it’s nothing” then matey fell onto the screen out of a helicopter or something.

@GifLord can we get a clip please? 61st min I think.

It feels wonderful to write this: I honestly can't see Liverpool reaching top-4 :)

10 points behind Leicester, 11 behind us - and they could easily be 7-8 points behind Chelsea, Everton or/and West Ham
The teams around them all have games in hand on them as well.

Wow those away games are hard! Come through those and they will have done brilliantly

Red Card for Casemiro!
Imagine Moyes handing a debut to an academy player who clocked 25 g+a year on year as a center forward. Imagine this player signing a 6 year deal with us through the worst period of our history and going on to become the finest center forward in the league. Imagine him being at the peak of his powers right now, playing with Bruno, Rashford, Pogba around him and having an incredible chemistry with all of them.

Daniel Levy's greatest piece of transfer business was that long-term contract that he convinced Kane to sign.

Jose Mourinho - You want a hat trick? Oh no no no no no. I sink it's best if the only hat trick is my three premier league titles. It's a good achievement no? I am special. You have me as your manager. This is worth many goals.

But Kane made that decision all by himself. Crazy as they’re not going to win the league anytime soon and he’ll be retired by then

Hopefully Jose doesn't overplay Kane, we'd have a real chance at the Euros with him fully fit.

Bale and Jose have both found their mojo in the business end of the season.

Spurs haven't won a trophy for 13 years. League Cup final coming up and they will be hard beaten in the Europa league I certainly wouldn't rule them out of either.

City will win with ease.
Europa is a possibility

The top ever scorers in the PL are going to be 2 Englishmen that put club loyalty before major trophies. Such a shame.

Easy peasy against Palace who we drew 0-0. Tottenham looking very good indeed.
Spurs drew at Selhurst Park aswell.

There is a reason why they're still 9 points off Man, United in the table.

Thankfully Kane is a Spurs boy, that's all I can say.

If you're talking about shearer as the other, technically he didn't show loyalty with the club he won the league with, but instead went chasing glory with his home town club. Just ironic that they went down the toilet a season or two after he joined them.
