Doing incredibly well, only 3 points off the top.
I think the games against the big 4 will be too much for them, but what a team they have, and without the ridiculous spending of the likes of man city and chelsea.
Can they seriously be considered a contender?

I think so and hope so, much of it will be down to Bale avoiding serious injury or dips in form, probably the same with Van De Vaart, and I wish Defoe would get a bit more of a run as he always seems to get a goal at important times. What an inspired signing Friedel was.........

Playing great football just now but as I said on an earlier thread the game at the etihad later this month will be the huge test. Would be silly to write them off I think. Can't see why not though every team is vulnerable to dropping points, this has been one of the most exciting premier league seasons yet!

I don't think they'll win the league as I think City are too strong. Only thing I'll say about the City game is that they are missing Kompany and Toure Yaya for that game. They looked poor at the back today

Of course they CAN.
They won't though.
They'll finish well clear in 3rd place behind both Manchester clubs.

Agree with Falkirk Hibee.
I don't follow any particular English team, but Spurs are playing the most watchable football right now.

The Spurs midfield 4 of Bale, Van der Vaart, Modric and Parker is the best in the Premiership. Defence and strikers are good but I think overall city have a stronger starting 11 and definitely a stronger squad.
I'd like to see them win it but think they'll finish 3rd behind city and united (can't decide the order). Spurs would be a good bet for the FA cup.

Best football in the league by a mile, a work ethic and squad morale that rivals most and a manager that is arguably the best English manager out there, actually he is the best english manager and one of the best managers in general. A chairman and board that aren't scared of spending and trust the manager completely. A left back, a consistent injury free centre half and maybe another striker assuming Pavlyuchenko leaves and I think they can win it.
Edit - they also have, in my opinion, the best midfield in the league.

It would certainly upset a few City fans if after seeing of the challenge of Utd they missed out to Spurs!

I very much doubt they can. I think both Manchester clubs are better than them, plus United have been over the turf before. Top 4 looks good though and that would have been a sucess at the start of the season. Possibly third. Getting Europe gives them a better chance of keeping players. I suppose if they get anything from the City game the expectations will rise. Decent bet for the FA cup
I like watching Spurs and them winning it would be more refreshing than City. Harry has spent a shed load of money on that side though.
Making Arsenal's and Chelsea's life much more difficult. Interesting league this year for many reasons.

I've been a Spurs fan longer than a Hibs fan, was thh Gary Mabbut connection, I was diagnosed a diabetic in 1991 and he was captain of Spurs at the time, a type 1 Diabetic captaining Spurs and playing for England, anything was possible!
For what it's worth I don't think we're strong enough in regard to squad depth to win the league, but we'll get a champions league spot and have plenty cash to spend next year so can improve the squad, depends on who stays and who goes in the summer, I think we'll struggle in this years run in with injuries and suspensions.

I'd like to see Spurs win it, simply because they currently play the best football in the Premier League and I like their philosophy.
Sadly, I think Spurs won't win it. I think City and Utd have the resources to step it up another gear once the run-in intensifies. Acid test for them is City away next weekend.
Joy to watch though.

No chance.
I think they will be fighting it out with arsenal for 4th at best.
I can see them blowing up shortly.

Friedel - Peanuts (Free)
King - Youth
Gallas - Free
Bale - £10 Million
Modric - £16 Million
Van der Vaart - £7 Million
Pav - £10 Million (another rebrov)
Parker - £7 Million
So for those 8 players Chelsea bought Torres for the same figure
I'm a Spurs fan & I would love for us to do it. But I agree City have a stronger squad & united have the experience.
Spurs will probably beat City & United but then get beat by Wigan, Wolves, Bolton etc.....

Harry is one of Fergie's acolytes. If Man City are above Man United then they have a chance. If United are above City and Fergie says naw then they cannae win it.
