Overreaction maybe, but you can't honestly claim that we should not have put top four out of sight by now? We've let Chelsea creep back in and have a credible shot at fourth. That in itself is disappointing. The players have made hard work for themselves unnecessarily. I don't see the use in denying that.
after we beat Chelsea our next league game was Man City, was never going to be easy whether they had won the title or not the week before
we then played Brighton fighting for points, everyone wanting us to rotate, because the FA Cup semi, Poch did so and we drew thanks to giving away a soft penalty, which I still don't think it was, i still think he went down after clipping Aurier.
we then lost the semi, thanks to gifting them an equaliser.
we then played shit and still beat Watford 2-0
we then played WBA, and had Pardew still been manager they would of been gone by now. we didn't bottle it v WBA, we just got hit by a sucker punch offside goal in the dying minutes. their MotM was Dawson, though they defended so well, and Forster made 3 good saves. WBA didn't deserve the win, but they got it.
the thing in football there are no guarantees, if the best style of football won games we would of won the league the last 2 seasons. we might fuck up v Newcastle or Leicester or both, but at the moment I'm in the camp that feels we will make it, and just hope Poch gives the squad the kick up the arse needed, the trouble is the way our luck has been since forever and a day in my life as a Spurs fan, give or take a few seasons, the Newcastle keeper might just do what he is paid for and pull of 10 blinding saves, and Newcastle will do what WBA did.
