Poch urges Spurs to keep concentration in title fight

Tottenham Hotspur manager Mauricio Pochettino wants his side to maintain their consistently good form until the end of the season, if they are to continue their title challenge.

Spurs have won 10 of their last 13 games in the Premier League and last weekend’s 2-0 victory at Burnley allowed them to close the gap at the top to seven points, following Chelsea’s surprise 2-1 defeat against Crystal Palace.

Like last season, Tottenham are heading into the run-in second in the table and needing the team above them to drop points, although taking advantage of this will be paramount.

Their run-in is comparably favourable, although Arsenal and Manchester United still have to visit White Hart Lane.

And Pochettino has urged his side to maintain concentration in the run-in as they chase down their London rivals.

“For us, we’re battling to reduce the gap against Chelsea,” he said.

“We’re showing in the last two seasons that we can be consistent and it’s important for us.

“It’s not easy to win every game in the Premier League, you can see how tough the competition is but we’re doing well and we need to continue to be consistent, to focus, to be concentrated and be ready to play.”
