Former Tottenham Hotspur defender Michael Dawson believes that the North London club can close the gap on the top two teams in the Premier League under their Italian manager, Antonio Conte. Manchester City and Liverpool have been the top two teams in the Premier League over the course of the last five years. In the latest Premier League campaign, Manchester City finished one point ahead of Liverpool on the final league table to make it two successive league titles and four league titles in the last five years. Liverpool and Manchester City have won the five Premier League titles between them.
Michael Dawson talked about Conte and his former club in an interview with Willam Hill earlier in the month. In addition to closing the gap on Liverpool and Manchester City under Conte, the Englishman believes that Spurs can go on a strong Champions League run like they did three years ago when they went all the way to the final before they were beaten by Liverpool in an all-Premier League final at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium II in the Spanish capital of Madrid.
Nottingham Forest must keep a lid on any nerves if they are to triumph at Wembley on Sunday, according to former defender Michael Dawson. The Reds take on Huddersfield Town in the Championship play-offs final, with the prize of playing Premier League football up for grabs. But the occasion also comes with plenty of pressure and expectation.
Forest have had experience of being in the spotlight this season, particularly with their brilliant FA Cup run. But facing the Terriers under the arch, with the prospect of ending the club’s 23-year exile from the top-flight, will be a completely different scenario. Dawson has been in that kind of situation, with Hull City. And the Reds fans’ favourite says his old club must keep their emotions in check.
