Think the result at the weekend will now have even more of an impact. If we go to Spurs and win, that result should really kick us on and hopefully see us grab hold of this season and win the title - which is very much there for the taking.It does feel like we are ready to kick on now. Everyone is supposed to be fit now apart from Aké but we don't know if he's really out or not.
The international breaks are over until March. Pep's future is sorted. Gabby has come back from injury fired up, Phil and Torres making waves, the defence has gotten to know each other and is looking brilliant.
Time to get going, play to our standards and see if anyone else can keep up.
I genuinely think if we can find 6 weeks of our 2017-2019 form then the league will be over.
If we don't win at Spurs, I feel it'll now be more of a transitional season similar to 16/17 where we know the team is shaping well but isn't complete enough to pick up regular results against the better teams.
Either way, Pep committing is great news and I think we'll be back to the 17-19 level next season either way.
