Stuart Pearce believes Tottenham will fall short in this season’s title race and says they’d be happy to finish in the top four.
The former England star has tipped the two Manchester clubs to fight for the Premier League crown and he thinks Spurs’ form at their temporary Wembley home will stop them from challenging.
Spurs are five points behind United and City after seven games and Pearce told Sky Sports that he can’t see them bridging the gap.
“They started the season well on the road, looking very impressive, but I think they’re going to miss Danny Rose and Kyle Walker, with Rose injured and Walker at City now,” he said.
