Ryan Mason is focused to game by game strategy to attempt gatecrash top four

Tottenham Hotspur,  boss Ryan Mason two wins from two Premier League games and now 5 points behind Chelsea after Spurs wrecked bottom club Sheffield United 4-0 on Sunday. It happened because of Gareth Bale’s hat-trick. The 29-year-old, taking charge of a half-sunk ship, almost at end of the season, but he is doing great also taking the approach of the game by game to deliver something out of this situation.

“Honestly, we are not thinking about that, we have got four massive games, huge games. It is difficult to win Premier League games, we have seen that over the course of the season with many different teams. Sunday was important for us, it was a massive game. This week is a massive week for us, next weekend is a huge game as well, that is what we are looking to, we would be very silly as a group to look too far ahead because next week will be a tough match and we need to go there fully prepared.”

“I thought it was an outstanding performance from the team, he said. We’ve had a week to work and train them and train them hard and try to instil some principles, stuff like that takes a lot of time. The most important thing for me was the attitude, from minute one to 95, the desire to compete, to run, to fight, it was really, really good and then you pair that up with the moments of brilliance we had, individually but also as a team. It was a real pleasing night.” said Mason

Now the Spurs would have to win 4 remaining games in order to win the UEFA Champions League spot. Tottenham has one fixture with Leicester and they are seven points behind them, where if they are able to press them it would be a crucial point in order to get the crucial top-four spot although they have the difficulty in fixtures for the teams around them.
