They do say that only the most resilient teams stand any chance of winning it, and we've shown remarkable resilience today.
We got the most points from losing positions last season and although I don't expect is to be in any losing positions this season it's nice to know the character is there if we were to need it.
Great to see Spurs back on top of the table after City threatened to trouble us. City and 'Pool show money can't buy you cleansheets and victories, unless that money is £4mill spent on Dier Might be worth a bid for Gerrard before deadline day, he would only get a few games here and there but he deserves to win a PL title before he retires, I don't think Rodgers will stand in his way.
That's a good call, actually. Even the Mousers will agree that Gerrard deserves a couple of champagne seasons at Spurs, after such long service at 'Pool.
I went to ja606 cracker and the're saying the same chuffing thing, we are top of the league and there's some prick telling them to calm down.
Every site has its wums, I suppose. Fortunately for us, my careful policing of this thread appears to have kept wumming to a minimum.
HIAG - We appreciate the fact you have brought a sense of realism to this thread to keep everyone's feet on the ground. I like the fact you haven't let anyone get carried away with unrealistic expectiations.
Everyone made a big deal about the top 4 after one game being the top 4 at the end of the season. Well guess what? The league table after TWO games is TWICE as accurate as that table. That can only mean one thing..... When is the parade?
A new manager often breathes new life into a team at the very start of the season but then most fall away and tradition comes back to that club. I am not getting carried away by our start because I said it would happen after such a good finish last season so I'm not surprised by it. I do expect us not to maintain this pace but to fall away a little and then regain form.
We're gonna win the league! We're gonna win the league! And now you're gonna believe us, And now you're gonna believe us, And now you're gonna believe us... WE'RE GONNA WIN THE LEAGUE! Similar to what Spurm says, two games doesn't lie, the table's looking very accurate.
