    I’d ask the exact opposite honestly, why are people writing spurs on for the league after 10 games?

    Arsenal started last season off top of the league after 10 games, similar performance. Everyone told us we couldn’t do it, or wouldn’t maintain it. They ended up being right of course, but to see so many people tip Spurs to win the league blows my mind.

    They are one injury away from mid-table form. looking at you, Son

    Spurs fans know it, and anyone who knows football knows it. They have a new manager who has them motivated playing a style that’s caught teams off-guard. Chelsea already figured it out last week.

    They’re playing excellently, but they will have to keep pace with the winning machine that is City, Arsenal who despite being slower this year are actually better defensively and more controlled (and injured), Liverpool who are getting results despite the swashbuckling, and Newcastle who are clearly on the up and up. Even Chelsea could turn it on this year and end up top 5, it’s so, so early.

    Credit where it’s due from an Arsenal fan, I mean no disrespect. But if I were a Spurs fan hearing people telling me my team is gonna win it all, I’d be begging them to shut the fuck up rn.
