There's no doubt Spurs have performed better than us this year, but there's also no doubt that Arsenal have massively underperformed. Champions League aside, has anything actually gone wrong for Spurs this season?
It's almost like Spurs are a sports car running at top gear, and we're a supercar stuck in third. All it takes is Spurs tanking at Wembley for a part of next season and Arsenal playing anywhere near our true level we'll be back on top.
I fear this is what will happen. You know with the longer grass and that.
Spurs have had a few injuries but aside from Kane they've been in positions where we've had adequate cover particularly in defence. Walker, Rose, Vertonghen and Alderwield have all had periods out, some at the same time. Rose is currently our biggest lose, he's been out for a good few months now. In general though i don't think we've been any where as bad injury wise as recent seasons.
