For me, I personally think, and I'm sure James is the same, if you've got that, you've got half a chance.
You can have your brilliant players and your one-off players, but if you've got that real togetherness and that real hunger for each other, you've got half a chance.
In Leicester's case, you've got more than half a chance, like they've shown, and they're going to win the league.
Well, like Jamie just said, I think anything you can say now, people can throw back at you.
How could anyone say they couldn't?
Because for me to sit here and say they've won the league now is quite incredible.
So anything, for me, is possible.
Anything is possible.
I sensed, as I said, that there was a real focus to our work, intensity to our work, and we went to beat tonight.
Yeah, he does.
We were speaking just during the game about how the back four are working as a unit.
It's incredible, really.
it's a massive part of their game.
That's probably hours on the training field and obviously the coach working with them in terms of drilling them and really bringing the play up and condensing it.
I think that's the key part of why Tottenham can go and press teams so high.
You can only go and press that high up the pitch when the back four are squeezed up because if not, you're going to get picked off.
and every bit of the play today Tottenham were playing a real high line and they can they can afford to do that because you've got the likes of Karl Walker for Tong and Rose they're quick quick defenders so you can afford to condense the play as much as they can and young fit players that's the other thing I think Dele Alli epitomises that he
And the problem West Ham had today was in that situation, you're looking to probably put it in behind a little bit and get a bit of pace.
And obviously Andrew Carroll up front today never really probably got going.
And in them situations, like I said, they always have numbers around you.
