  Mauricio Pochettino insists Tottenham are bigger club than Manchester City ahead of title fight at Etihad
  
  Mauricio Pochettino has raised the stakes ahead of Tottenham’s title fight at the Etihad tonight by insisting: 'We are a bigger club than Manchester City '.
  The Argentine claims that despite City's wealth, Pep Guardiola has left Barcelona and Bayern Munich for a club historically inferior to the north Londoners.
  Pochettino , who came up against Guardiola’s Barca as boss of Espanyol, said: “We are talking about Barcelona, one of the best teams in the world. The gap was massive. The gap was massive.
  “Now? Historically Tottenham is bigger than Man City. Tottenham’s fanbase is bigger. But Manchester City has a different philosophy. They are not on a different level, they are approaching it in a completely different way to Tottenham."
  
  Has he had a bump on the head? I think they are on par with each other always living in the shadows of their rival neighbours ;)

  Looking forward to the last ever derby at the lane,shame.
  
  The two teams first faced each other as "north London rivals" in a War Relief Fund friendly on 22 August 1914 at White Hart Lane. Although Arsenal were in the Second Division and Tottenham in the First, Arsenal won 5–1. They would go on to meet regularly during World War I in the London Combination, the regional wartime competition of the time.
  
  Just hope that's the score tomorrow :D

  In a way you kind of have to laugh at Tottenham, I mean, how many years in a row have Arsenal finished above them in the league now, 20 odd?, Spurs have one great season, likely to finish above Arsenal, & they're celebrating like they've won the league

  Tottenham played their first matches at Tottenham Marshes on the available public pitches and remained there for six years. It was at this ground that Spurs first played archrivals Arsenal (then known as Royal Arsenal), leading 2–1 until the match got called off due to poor light after the away team arrived late. There were occasions on which fights would break out on the marshes in dispute of the teams that were allowed to use the best pitches. Crowd sizes were regularly increasing and a new site was becoming needed to accommodate these supporters.
  In 1898 the club moved from the marshes to Northumberland Park and charged an admission fee of 3d (£0.0125). They only remained at this ground for a year as in April 1899, 14,000 fans turned up to watch Spurs play Woolwich Arsenal. The ground was no longer able to cope with the larger crowds and Spurs were forced to move to a new larger site 100 yards down the road, to the current ground.
  
  
  
  The White Hart Lane ground was originally a disused nursery owned by the brewery Charringtons and located behind a public house on Tottenham High Road (the actual White Hart Lane road lies a few hundred yards north of the main entrance). The landlord spotted the increased income he could enjoy if Tottenham played their matches behind his pub and in 1899 the club moved in. They brought with them the stand they used at Northumberland Park which gave shelter to 2,500 fans. Notts County were the first visitors to 'the Lane' in a friendly watched by 5,000 people and provided in £115 in receipts; Spurs won 4–1. QPR became the first competitive visitors to the ground and 11,000 people saw them lose 1–0 to Tottenham.
  
  
  
  In 1905 Tottenham raised enough money to buy the freehold to the land and became permanent owners of the ground

  I went to the game on Sunday, Spurs proper dominated that game but did nothing, Harry came close by hitting the post but other than that nothing especially after all the corners they had.
  
  Makes me wonder though, Spurs starting 11 is a solid 11, outside that they are really lacking depth,
