Exciting Kane and Sun Xingmin, as well as the return of Bell, three-time Premier League champion Mourinho at the helm, Tottenham’s optimism is building, this may be the best chance for Tottenham to end their 60-year championship dream. If Tottenham want to win their first championship since 1961, beating their rivals Manchester City at home is of utmost importance, both psychologically and spiritually.
Can Tottenham win the championship? This is not impossible, because Mourinho is in charge of the team and he knows how to cross the championship line. Can players perform miracles every week? Only time will tell, and having Mourinho at the club will give them an advantage. Pochettino is a good coach, but because of Mourinho, they now have more chances to win the championship. When Mourinho won the championship at Chelsea, he was the only coach who treated every game as the last of the season.
Can Manchester City re-launch the championship challenge? Last season, Manchester City handed over the Premier League title to Liverpool, but their efforts to regain the championship did not work. Their mediocre performance has been questioned. Guardiola signed a two-year new contract with Manchester City. During his four years in charge of Manchester City, Guardiola has won 6 important trophies, including 2 Premier League titles. A magnificent forecast of what can be achieved this year.
Aguero has been absent for a month due to a hamstring injury, and Sterling also withdrew from the national team earlier this week due to a calf injury. Captain Fernandinho was recently absent due to a muscle injury, and defenders Nathan Aker and Benjamin Mandy have also been questioned. Guardiola's peak position has begun to slip, Manchester City's game intensity has reduced, no longer suppressing opponents as before. Their offensive index dropped sharply. They only scored 10 goals in 7 games. At this time last season they had scored 27 goals. Now Manchester City's chance creation rate is not high.
17 points in 8 games perfectly fit with Tottenham’s performance. If this level is maintained, Tottenham will become the top 4 challengers this season and is likely to become a champion contender. It is also worth noting that Tottenham have won by one goal in the last three Premier League games. This is exactly what Mourinho’s team is good at. When Chelsea won the championship in 2015, he had 7 times. Win 1 goal in the Premier League.
After being defeated by Everton, Tottenham now has the longest unbeaten record in the Premier League. Tottenham are expected to win four consecutive victories. Harry Kane has scored 23 goals in 14 games this season (13 goals, 10 assists), at least 8 goals more than other Premier League players. In fact, teammate Sun Xingmin (10 goals, 5 assists) ranked second.
