One can equally read 'inexperience' as 'fearlessness'. And Poch is a very different man/manager/ man-manager to Keegan, from what I have seen; and his team a very different animal. But we'll see...

This season has turned everything on it's head. Leicester leading the charge after scraping survival last season. Chelsea with God knows how many experienced internationals are all over the place. Same with Man Utd. Could just be that fortune will, for once, favour the brave rather than the wealthy.

his old Newcastle and this Spurs team are not the same at all. Pochettino is not Keegan, thankfully.

Besides, almost everyone in the team is a full international, some have played at world cups, some are national captains, some have won titles in other countries.. the ones you'd consider lacking experience, seem to be very self-assured. I'm thinking of Kane, Alli, Dier here. And, most importantly, the manager believes in them, himself, and his staff.

I tend to agree with Ginola here, I really never expected to be still in the title race this late in the season. The squad is young and won't peak for a few years and then we'll have a shot at being champions. I'm glad we're still up there and this experience may do us a lot of good when we're ready to win the league, sadly I don't think we're quite there yet.

The brilliant thing is it doesn't matter what we think.

Yep we'll peak in a few years but we are BANG in this title race and we shouldn't be scared to admit it.

There is not a single team to be scared of. It's not like the old days of 'we can beat anyone on our day'. We are as good as the best teams in this league and we will take this title down to the wire, whoever wins it.
