Ramon Vega believes Tottenham may never have a better chance of winning the Premier League title, claiming the balance of the team has been key to their recent success.
While table-topping Leicester have carried all before them this season, in-form Tottenham sit five points adrift in second place ahead of their Sky Live game at Manchester City this Sunday.
Mauricio Pochettino's side have won seven of their last nine in the league, and Vega believes the Spurs coach has the found the perfect recipe for success.
Speaking on Sky Sports News HQ, Vega said: "I think if you don't concede you will always be on the winning formula. As a defence that is very important.
"When we had a good run at Spurs with me and Sol Campbell at the back, when you don't concede you are winning at the front and when you are scoring, you are going even further.
"They are not really not that far away compared to the other teams in the top four and I think if they continue like that it would be great and it is very balanced.
"Everyone was saying they need another striker, well you can see Christian Eriksen and Erik Lamela also scoring goals and that is a good balance. That's a great formula and a credit to the manager.
"Tottenham supporters have waited a long, long time for this opportunity. This is a good time to give them something back. I think the players will feel that. They can go down in history. I hope it can happen because the Spurs supporters deserve it."
