William Gallas suggests he and his Tottenham teammates need to stay strong if they want to pip North London rivals Arsenal to third position on the league table.

Fourth-placed Spurs are equal on 58 points with the Gunners with seven matches remaining and after a confidence-boosting 3-1 win over Swansea City last weekend, defender Gallas has urged Tottenham to kick on.

"I think the confidence is back. After the draw against Chelsea and the victories against Bolton and Swansea, the confidence is back," he told the club's official website.

"Now, like I said to everyone, every game is a final for us. We have to be strong if we want to finish third.

"We have to play every game with 100 per cent, and at the end of the season we will go on our holidays and feel that maybe we deserved to finish third.

"Before that we have to give everything. Before the game we have to speak together and we have to know that we are not tired, and that we can be tired at the end of the season."
