# Tottenham Hotspur: Some supporters aren’t convinced by Moussa Sissoko’s top-four hopes

**It might only be November, but a top-four finish is starting to look like a long shot for Tottenham this season.**

> Spurs midfielder Moussa Sissoko still now believes that Tottenham Hotspur can finish in the Premier League’s top four:

> “It will now not be easy but we know we have the qualities to do it and we will try to catch the teams in front of us.”[#THFC](https://twitter.com/hashtag/THFC?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) [#COYS](https://twitter.com/hashtag/COYS?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw)[https://t.co/RJ0o7h8XkP](https://t.co/RJ0o7h8XkP)

The north London club currently finds themselves 14th in the Premier League table after 12 games ([per the Premier League’s official website](https://www.premierleague.com/tables)), with Spurs claiming just three wins all season.

With Tottenham currently 11 points off the top-four and facing a difficult run of fixtures that includes the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Wolves ([per BBC Sport](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/tottenham-hotspur/scores-fixtures)), a Champions League finish could well be out of reach for Spurs this season.

Yet Moussa Sissoko, [speaking to the Telegraph](https://t.co/RJ0o7h8XkP?amp=1), believes that Spurs still have what it takes to claim a top-four finish, a response which was met with puzzled replies from Tottenham supporters on social media who didn’t share the same optimism as the 30-year-old midfielder.

Here’s what some Tottenham fans had to say about Sissoko’s words of encouragement, with a few supporters not convinced by what the former Newcastle midfielder had to say…

> It’s impossible we won only 3 games out of 12, we ar too far
