Tottenham Hotspur are just about still in the Premier League title race.

Spurs midfielder Mousa Dembele sat down for an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, and highlighted the importance of his side taking one game at a time, rather than think about whether or not they are still in the title race.

Tottenham currently sit in second position in the Premier League table, albeit a distant 10 points adrift of league leaders Chelsea, but they have impressed on the whole this term, with their high-octane, high-intensity performances.

Dembele has been a major driving force behind his team’s success thus far, and he is widely considered as Spurs’ most important player, although his performances are usually overshadowed by Harry Kane and Dele Alli’s exploits.

And the Belgian sat down for an exclusive interview with Sky Sports, explaining how it will be of paramount importance for Tottenham to take each and every game as they come:

“We need to give our energy to that game and not too much into whether we can still make it or not. We lose energy from that.”

The Lilywhites welcome Ronald Koeman’s in-form Everton to White Hart Lane tomorrow, and they will have to be at their absolute best if they hope to close the gap on Chelsea – who do not play until Monday night.

And Dembele will surely have a key role to play in their chances of success against the Merseyside outfit.
