Spurs would have ‘bitten your hand off’ for Everton scenario
Chelsea 2-1 Tottenham
Danny Murphy
Former Liverpool midfielder on MOTD
They showed some resilience, some fight, they did have better energy, they finished the game strongly and they’ll be disappointed.
The overall performance wasn’t too bad from Tottenham, they started the game really well, looked really energetic, that goal set them back a little bit.
It’s a big one now at the end of season against Everton.
The mentality at Tottenham has to be, four or five weeks ago we were written off.
If you’d said to Tottenham fans and players it’s going to go down to the last day and you’ve got to get a draw or a win at home to Everton, they would have bitten your hand off.
That’s the positivity, you’ve got to think of it that way.
The dilemma you have when you know a draw will suffice is that plays on your mind, and you really can’t let it.
They’re at home against an Everton side who have petered out a little bit at the end of the season, they’ve got to be on the front foot and try to win the game, rather than be cautious and protective of that 0-0.
‘We have a final on Sunday’ – Palhinha
Chelsea 2-1 Tottenham
Spurs midfielder Joao Palhinha, spoke to Sky Sports after the defeat at Chelsea:Â “We have to [use the defeat as fuel for final game]. That’s the reality. We cannot think too much about the result.
“We more than played well. We needed the result to finish this thing that we have been living for a long time. This team needed a different result today. I think we deserved it.
“It’s been a tough season for us with a lot of things happening inside the club. The reality is we have a final on Sunday. We want to keep Tottenham in the Premier League and we will go with everything.
“I don’t think I need to speak too much about this game because we wanted to win. I think we deserved more. It’s a big frustration.
“We will have Tottenham in the Premier League next season, I don’t have any doubt about that because it’s where the club belong. Let’s go with everything.”
