And you start looking at the fixtures as a player because you're thinking to yourself, you look around your dressing room, you think, well, have we got enough or haven't we got enough?

Then you look at the fixtures and you go, that's no way.

Liverpool at home, Chelsea... Are you doing the yes-no in your head?

Well, you're going... It's depressing.

Because you can see the championship spiralling towards you and then all that doubt in your mind.

And when you're a team that's not used to being in that position, and Tottenham really, I mean, although they were heading that way under Postacoglu, they were never really in a relegation battle because it was at the end of the season.

We're quite some way from the end of the season now, and they're in it.

Now, this squad is not programmed for a relegation battle.

It's a bit of a fancy Dan team, isn't it?

If we get into Europe, we'll be all right.

The manager will get sacked.

He'll take the blame.

But all of a sudden, you're down in that bottom four or five, and the natives at the London Stadium, they are going to get restless if they aren't already.

And that pressure just compounds on a weekly basis as every result gets worse.

And that is really when you find out

what the makeup is of your teammates.

Because you start looking around the dressing room and going, who's going to help?

And that's when you find out if you've got guys with a good mentality or if you've got guys that are going to completely chuck it when the pressure gets on, which is kind of where Tottenham are getting into.

Have I done something to upset somebody?

Because right in front of me, off camera here, they're replaying the Man United-Everton game.
