Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has claimed that managers will still pick a move to rivals Chelsea over Tottenham, despite the current Premier League standings. Both London clubs are on the hunt for a new head coach after the appointment of interim options until the end of the season.
Antonio Conte guided the side to a fourth-placed finish last season and was on track for a top four fight again this campaign. However, defeats in all cup competitions and unrest over the style of play eventually saw the Italian lose his post with 10 games remaining.
Cristian Stellini and Ryan Mason have been given the reins for the rest of the season, with a recent victory over Brighton keeping Spurs just three points off the top four. "Yes because today we played against a tough opponent," Stellini said when asked if the top four is still on this season.
