It was a nervy Spurs display at White Hart Lane, a performance far removed from the slick 4-0 demolition of Stoke the previous week.

“We don’t want Tottenham to win the Premier League, the fans, the club and the players”, said Hazard. We felt we needed to win this game so we are disappointed. We need to keep fighting.
The damage was not only to Spurs’ title hopes. He’s likely to be summoned to the Football Association to account for his actions.
But he did provide an update on Alli’s midfield partner Eric Dier who was forced off following the West Brom leveller.
Drawing against West Bromwich Albion for the second time this season may have sealed Tottenham’s fate in the Premier League title race with three games remaining.
Spurs’ England hotshot reckons opponents were all raising their game against them – and doing all they could to thwart their bid for glory.
“It’s very disappointing and it’s hard but in football you have to capitalise on the experience”.
Tottenham’s next game is against Chelsea. “No complaints. We are very proud since the start of the season of how we have played and worked”.
“First half Tottenham dominated and we sat back and watched them dance around us at times”, Pulis told Sky Sports.
Albion were 1-0 down at the break on Monday night after finding themselves on the end of a first-half onslaught which saw Craig Dawson put the ball in his own net and both Harry Kane and Christian Eriksen hit the woodwork. “I think it’s important for Tottenham to stay in the top three for a couple of years to establish that”.
With the two Manchester clubs fighting tooth-and-nail for the title, 69 points from 35 games would have left Tottenham a distant third.
“You’ve got to rise to the pressure and thrive under it, “.
Ferdinand went on to praise Leicester, saying they deserved to win the title. It’s in Leicester’s hands. It’s in Leicester’s. If they win, they win.
West Brom was transformed in the second half, no longer the team lacking imagination before the break and able to halt a three-game losing run against the team with the stingiest defense in the league.
“We’ve got to move on, Chelsea are next and hopefully United do us a favour and we’ll go from there”.

But for now, Leicester are so close to the finishing line.
