Pochettino: There is a long way to go


Mauricio Pochettino believes Tottenham can still be crowned Premier League champions at the end of May despite sitting ten points behind leaders Chelsea.

After a difficult period, Tottenham have won four of their last five matches and are just one point behind fourth-placed Arsenal.

Chelsea, however, are on an 11-match winning run to move ominously clear at the top of the table, but Pochettino is adamant his side have every chance of catching the Blues.

"Are Chelsea out of sight? No, it's true that we have a 10-point gap with Chelsea," Pochettino said.

"But in football anything can happen. There are lot of games to play. Not only because last season was a similar gap with Leicester, eight or nine points in that period.

"I think our position is good. Now we are winning games, keeping the gap now a little bit closer to second position.

"It is not tomorrow, not in a few weeks, that the Premier League finishes. I think it's still a long way until the end of the season."
