Last weekend might just give an indication on why Spurs, try as they might, may not gatecrash into the top four this season.
Anybody who saw the match between Spurs and Villa will tell you that Spurs deserved to win, in fact, ought to have to won it. But, they failed to do so. Villa was in the game for 10 minutes and for the rest 80 minutes, Spurs managed to score just the single goal.
Anybody who saw the match between Everton and Liverpool will tell you Everton did not deserve to lose, maybe ought to have won it even. Liverpool were in the game for a measly 15 minutes and was absolutely battered for 75 minutes. Yet, Liverpool managed to come out winners by a two nil margin.
Spurs had spurned their opportunity to consolidate their position in the league table in my view. You might say it was one of those days for all the four clubs, but I see this as evidence as to why Liverpool will finish in the top four and why Spurs will not.

the second half yesterday was one of the best liverpool performances all season. torres is looking sharp. good times hopefully around the corner.
One of the best you say because they had nothing to play for and they just went for it. Would they play the same way against Arsenal this weekend? Somehow, I don't think so...
Great to see Aquilani, Gerrard and Torres play together for 10 minutes or so. Also great to see Lucas nowhere near the subs bench even. Sign of things to come I hope.
Whats the bet on Lucas starting against Arsenal?
