Spurs are dark horses – Hutton
(15-12-2010) Tottenham Hotspur can steal the EPL title from under the noses of the top four, reckons the club’s Scottish midfielder Alan Hutton. The North Londoners currently lie in fifth place, seven points behind leaders Manchester United. Arsenal are two points further back followed by Manchester City and Chelsea. Acknowledging that Spurs are outsiders, right-back Hutton refuses to rule out the title ending up at White Hart Lane. "I think it's better that way — there's no pressure on us. Everybody can see how good we're playing and what we're doing. So let the pressure be on them and we'll just play away." Added Hutton: "We're definitely a dark horse in the race. I don't think anybody can really write us off. We'll give it our best and, as we've shown, we don't fear any team that we play. So I don't see why we can't be in with a shout."
