So let me get this straight. Tottenham is not among the top 5 elite clubs in the EPL yet has managed to finish in the top 5, 8 times in the last 11 years. I would like your explanation of how Man City is an elite club in the EPL.
In that 11 years you have won the EPL? Ok what about the FA? Anything in Europe? Anything just anything?
If you are elite how is it that people and pundits or odds makers still haven't been seeing you as a potential winner of any of these competitions until this season? Talk about delusion of grandeu.
So Man Utd, Arsenal, Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea ALL have a better record than Spurs in the last 11 years in the EPL?
Table Form:
Season Liv-- MU-- City-- Ars-- CheL-- Spurs--
2006-07 3rd-- 1st-- 14th-- 4th-- 2nd-- 5th
2007–08 4th-- 1st-- 9th-- 3rd-- 2nd-- 11th
2008–09 2nd-- 1st-- 10th-- 4th-- 3rd-- 8th
2009–10 7th-- 2nd-- 5th-- 3rd-- 1st-- 4th
2010–11 6th-- 1st-- 3rd-- 4th-- 2nd-- 5th
2011–12 8th-- 2nd-- 1st-- 3rd-- 6th-- 4th
2012–13 7th-- 1st-- 2nd-- 4th-- 3rd-- 5th
2013–14 2nd-- 7th-- 1st-- 4th-- 3rd-- 6th
2014–15 6th-- 4th-- 2nd-- 3rd-- 1st-- 5th
2015–16 8th-- 5th-- 4th-- 2nd-- 10th-- 3rd

Top = Green
2nd = Blue
Worst = Red

From this table, one can say you are fighting with Liverpool for the least performing. But we know Liverpool have better history than you do. You also didnt finish any higher than 3rd in that period. More consistent than Pool , yes!. Pool has not finished any worse than 8th in that same span. But to compare you with the other 4 teams is just laughable. :D
Apply the logic you did for Liverpool to Spurs vs. City. Also I said last 11 seasons. Include 2005-2006.
