In the second half of the Premier League season, Tottenham fans labelled the team the title of "Title Judge". The origin of this title is interesting. Tottenham faced three favourites in the final rounds, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City, and were nicknamed "judges" by fans as they lost to all three.
This kind of banter undoubtedly casts a mysterious and dramatic color over the Tottenham team. After all, in such a fierce battle for the title in the Premier League, a team that is not too strong can affect the fate of the three championship favorites, which inevitably makes people a little curious and expectant. Some blogs and self-media took the opportunity to hype up Tottenham and labeled Tottenham as "champions", with appropriate headlines, which attracted the attention of a large number of readers.
When we dig deeper into the specifics of these three games, we will find that Tottenham's road to the title judge has not been easy. In the match with Arsenal, despite the final 2-3 defeat, Tottenham also had the advantage for a while; In the match against Liverpool, Tottenham led 2-1 at one point, but finally collapsed in the second half; In the match against Manchester City, Tottenham basically had no way to fight back, and the score of 0-2 can be said to have fully achieved Manchester City's expected goal.
Judging from the results of these three games, Tottenham did play the role of "judge", but its road to "judge" was not all smooth sailing. They had the upper hand against both Arsenal and Liverpool and were still unable to win. This also shows that although Tottenham is not as strong as these three teams, it still has a certain championship temperament and competitiveness, and is not a "foil" that is powerless.
Faced with Tottenham's title of "title judge", the reaction of fans was also different. Some fans believe that Tottenham's three defeats at the crucial moment in the final moment have completely damaged the morale of the team and also affected the prospects of the three title favourites. They believe that Tottenham are a "lucky team" who have won a few games by chance, but have come home with regret at crucial moments, which has had little positive effect on the future development of the team.
But there are also some fans who believe that Tottenham have proven themselves to be so competitive against the big three that they are not to be underestimated. They believe that Tottenham, while unable to win against all three teams, have highlighted their potential and laid a good foundation for the future development of the team. After all, being able to fight against a strong opponent is already something that fans should be proud of.
On the whole, different fans do have different evaluations of Tottenham's road to the "title judge". Some people think that this is a kind of "luck", the epitome of the strength of the team; Others believe that this is a testament to Tottenham's potential and lays the foundation for future development. This disagreement also reflects the different views of fans about Tottenham as a team.
Overall, Tottenham's path to being a title judge does feel dramatic. As a team that is not too strong, being able to affect the fate of the three championship favorites at the most critical moment inevitably makes people curious and expectant.
But a closer look at the specifics of those three games reveals that Tottenham's performances were not entirely consistent. In the games against Arsenal and Liverpool, they had the advantage at one point, but in the end they were unable to win. This shows that although Tottenham Hotspur could not finally defeat these three teams, it was not an uncontested "foil".
Different fans also have different evaluations of Tottenham's "title judge" road.
