"We must have great enthusiasm to play these last six games, with patience and a great will to fight". If we win, we must be proud.

Tottenham are in magnificent form but they have the derby and a trip to West Ham, facing the two clubs who would most delight in derailing them while Chelsea have the security of their points-lead and only trips to Everton and West Brom to worry them.
"When you beat the leader, it is obviously a very good feeling because you feel you are as good or better than them".
