Tottenham have dropped two points on Monday as they were held to a 1-1 draw by West Brom at White Hart Lane, but manager manager Mauricio Pochettino says they can't give up on the title yet. The Spurs are now seven points behind leaders Leicester with three games remaining, which means that a win would guarantee the title for the Foxes.
"We need to be strong in our mind and prepare for the next game," Pochettino said after Monday's match. "It is difficult. We are not going to give up." Leicester face Manchester United on Sunday, while Tottenham travel to Chelsea on Monday. Tottenham star striker Harry Kane said: "Hopefully Manchester United can do us a favour. It has not gone. We need to keep fighting. All we can do is keep fighting."
Manager Mauricio Pochettino added: "We were unlucky in the first half and created a lot of chances but this always happens in football. We allowed them to believe and we conceded a goal, but I am very proud because it was a big effort. I think we deserved the three points. We understand it was a game we must win. I must now lift the players for the game against Chelsea."
Tottenham are 12/1 at Bet365 to win the Premier League title this season.

This draw with WBA was even officially over to the Spurs champions hopes, yes there is always a hope but with so few games to go the just can't afford that draw back then.It was quite a push of Spurs before that but Leicester was just perfect and never looked worried about Spurs push and in the end the race wasn't even...

Maybe they did gave up, you just dont say that in public. Point difference is now just too big. They had a chance that they weren't allowed to drop, but certainly an excellent season for Tottenham. They will earn a lot of money and will play in the Champions League next year . For them it is a big success for sure.

Of course they wont give up,but their chances are minimal.Fans of Tottenham Hotspurs will be sorry for missing a chance to win the title this season.All the favorites were underperforming.I really think that in next year Spurs will have big problem to even be in top 4,their chances for the title next year are really small.
