Arsenal, Liverpool and Chelsea all drop points in home bankers and we go to a tricky away ground and win in impressive fashion. And two stats to make you smile: Tottenham have won more points (38) from their last 15 Premier League matches (i.e. since the two losses to Utd/City when we had nowhere near our current first team) than Man City and Man United from theirs (both 36). And if we carry on at this rate of point scoring, we will finish on 85 points. It's my 18th birthday tomorrow so these last couple of days have been one big early birthday present!
Lets all got drunk to celebrate our excellent half season No booze for you SL, you have to wait 'til tomorrow
Why use 9 games? In what way is that preferable to 5, 10 or the originally stated 15? We don't have refs digging us out like you do, either. Joke red card and a joke penalty, too.
We haven't lost ground on City, the league leaders in that time, though. Of course you're the form team when you take a specific number that lends itself best to United. If you took a round number like 10, then we're equal.
The red card came at 1-0, SNIAW. No offence, but Wolves showed how fragile a lead that it today and no amount of dominance ensures a result. One set-piece could've resulted in Man Utd, who had no centre-halves, being pegged back and losing confidence.
Close of the transfer window and represents the form of the current side, rather than one missing Parker and Adebayor, while half of our squad were also injured.
Because 15 games is the number of games since the transfer window closed and we've had anything near our first team. We had Kranjcar and Livermore CM against Man Utd ffs! Edit: Just seen PNP's post! We are half way through the season (nearly), so played every team once. Now is as meaningful a time as any.
You seem to misunderstand, Lidls. We were missing important players and their back-up, too. Modric had also had his head turned by Chelsea trying to tap him up. Utd may have been missing players, but you've always got the extra man in black to help you out, eh?
It's significant because it shows that Tottenham have been able to [slightly] outperform the top two teams over a long period. Yes it's selective but it makes a good point that perhaps we're better compared to those above us than those below, which up until now, has not been the case.
Best of the rest? Win our game in hand, and we're a lot closer to the top two than we are to "the rest"
We really have Lukey rattled. His comments are getting less and less complimentary about Spurs as I suspect no matter what he says he is starting to fear that Spurs could actually challenge his beloved Man Utd for the title this season.
Not unless you were born at midnight, you're not! Congratulations, anyway. Why aren't you out doing something reckless and stupid?
