Up until now we have, on paper, won the game we should have , drew the game we should have at least got a point from and lost the games people would have expected.
However, football isn't played on paper and eventually, not getting st least the odd point against the 'bigger teams' will put pressure on as the season progresses.
We have a run of games now where, for the first time this season, IMO the pressure is beginning to mount and there will be an underlying expectation for us to get something out of the next three. A minimum of 5 points, ideally 7, would be most people's expectation or suddenly, a difficult early season run where we 'didn't play too badly against some top teams' turns into 'a very poor start to the season'.

Dan you may be right, but other question to you is--
Will he last longer at our club than Ali will at ours?
Where will Kane be net season ?
Ali will have head turned by lucrative offers, and if you arent in CLnext season Kane will def be off.
Shame for Spurs fans , 2 great seasons, but no real memories.

Silly Don. Moving on...
Dunge has summarised it pretty well. For me, the test of Shakespeare's mettle is whether he can get the midfield settled and protecting the back 4. We need Silva available and Iborra up to speed asap.
Once we have this, like TB I'm confident we have enough attacking threat to cause problems for most teams.
We just need to stop conceding silly goals.
Over to you Shakey. Prove Don wrong (shouldn't be hard).

Ultimately Kane will probably have to leave if he genuinely wants to win stuff in his career. Credit to him if he stays though; that kind of loyalty is in short supply these days.

Don, Ali will go soon, you wont be in champs league next season, you have had 2 good seasons with nothing to show for it, and of course , you came third in a two horse race .Dont think you have anything to offer us on this board.
We have over achieved recently, and been far more succesfull than you club has been since early sixties.
Londons third club, at best.!!

Yep KTF the pressure could start now. If we lose the next 3 and that includes West Brom our bogey team at home,
the comments on here will be mindbggling ( and thats without cocky Spurs fans sticking their oar in)
and Don are you old enough to remember Spurs winning the league.I can remember Leicester winning it. You,ll
probably beat Huddersfield on Saturday, but then unfortunately its back to Wenbley. Its looking like at least the 2 mancs and Chelsea will finish above you and probably the Ars, they usually do.
