I don't really get people questioning our mentality, it's probably the biggest collective reason we are doing as well as we are doing. I know things felt a bit shit after Saturday, but a few weeks ago we took a Chelsea side on a record winning run, who have swept all before them for months apart, a team who'd fucked our title charge last season, and with all that pressure on we out performed them.
I'm disappointed with Pochettino for the Liverpool and ManC games, but I think the away record against all the top 6, isn't great for most of the top 6, and I don't think we were terrible away to Arsenal, Chelsea or ManU. We didn't deserve to lose the Chelsea or ManU games and deserved to win the Arsenal one I think.
The mentality of this team definitely exceeds it's actual talent IMO, and that mentality largely comes from Pochettino. Tactically he makes mistakes (they all do) but the mentality he's brought to this group is better than any Spurs group I've ever watched.
