    It's one game at a time. Fear nobody, but also take nobody for granted.

    Leicester's momentum is still forward despite having no Vardy deedub.

    I just hope they are down by then! But we are better than them, at least the players have more faith than we do!

    Could be Rob could be. At one point against The Bubbles Leicester were 10 points clear, now only 5, amazing what one match can do.

    I noticed both north east teams winning by the same score and City beating Chelsea by the same score in the earlier fixture at City, so there's more to come yet crackerman. Last weekend was one o football's flukes.

    I like Carragher. Take the voice away and he is actually a very good pundit IMO

    Harry Kane has gone back ahead of Jamie Vardy in the race for the Golden Boot.
    He's also overtaken Aston Villa! <laugh>

    What makes you think that?

    It's still the same for us... 8 more points.

    FFS Eriksen and Alli scoring would've made it 6-0 and won me £200! <grr> :D

    Ah well, cracking performance. Top class. Everyone was brilliant.

    See Leicester fans, when you play to win by more than 1-0 you don't end up left crying at the end about not getting 3 penalties a game <ok> Alderweireld should've had one today, we don't care :)

    We could even celebrate St Arseholes Day on May 2nd at the Bridge. Put the date in your diary lads.

    Before you needed a MAXIMUM of 8 points.

    Now your players know they need 8 points <ok>

    They also know they are not the best team in the league <ok>

    Liverpool thrashed Stoke 4-1 so they've obviously collapsed but we can't take anything away from a good Spurs performance, MAYBE the title winning one.

    Our goal difference is +39. That stat is amazing as well. Chelsea won the league last season with a goal difference of +41.

    Eh?

    Before the weekend we needed a maximum of 9 points. Now we need 8 points.

    The team that wins the league is the best side in it. That can not be argued.

    AKCJ, I think there are 6 points from the next two matches for a full strength Spurs.

    I genuinely think that if you were to make a list of our best 7/8 players this season the last name on that list would be a good call for player of the season in a normal year.

    We've got a bloody great first 11 and a superb manager. I've been waiting all my life to see something like this.

    And Carragher's right. If we don't win it this year we'll be challenging for the title again next year. This is for real.

    COYS!
