Liverpool legend Alan Hansen has told Tottenham their chances of winning the title are over after defeat to Manchester City.

Hansen wrote in the Telegraph: "As harsh as it may sound, their hopes of winning the league this season have gone because of their failure to make more of what has been a defining week in their campaign.

"Every season has defining moments and Tottenham's might just have been the one minute at the Etihad Stadium when they could have scored a winner, but ended up conceding a goal that left them with nothing.

"But this last week has really been crunch time for Spurs and, although their fightback at City after going two goals down was impressive, ultimately they failed to deliver when the pressure was on.

"As a result, Tottenham Hotspur are now eight points behind Manchester City, five adrift of Manchester United and, simply, out of the title race."
