A tale of two England strikers: Kane and Sturridge

For all the banterous talk of Spursiness that still follows Tottenham around, and for all this article will attract the usual howls of derision about how Pochettino’s side has no trophies to show for their efforts, they have been the Premier League’s most resilient and reliable side of the past three years.

Since the beginning of the 2015/16 season, Spurs have been the side least likely to lose a game after falling behind (39.5% – the next best is Liverpool with 50%), and the most likely to win after going ahead (an incredible 93.3% – for context, Liverpool have won just 72.2% of the games in which they have established a lead).

Nor is this a side prone to the odd embarrassing collapse. Spurs have lost a Premier League game by more than a single goal just four times since the beginning of the 2015/16 season; in the same span, Manchester United have lost by at least two clear goals seven times, Manchester City nine times, Chelsea 10, Liverpool 11 and Arsenal 12.

I don't say it often, but that's a good article. And so is the one it links to about our "never say die" character.

I agree.

You don’t say it often About the site? Or in general?

I think F365 are relatively balanced when all is said and done, despite the obvious industry need for clicks. And I love reading Spurs stuff on there. They clearly love the game.
