Defoe 'thriving' on title pressure
Harry Redknapp's side are six points behind leaders Manchester City, but with a game in hand, and defoe believes he may never have a better chance of a championship medal. "I'm loving the pressure," he told the Daily Mirror. "It's like playing tournament football for England, when everyone is pinning their hopes on you to make the breakthrough. "It means I have to make sure my preparation is right, that my attitude is right. Because I know how much it means to so many people. "City and United know we are a threat, and with every game that we keep on winning we can put pressure on them to keep winning. "We don't feel negative pressure. We are enjoying it. But at the same time we know that it may not come again in the way that it has. "This is such a good opportunity for us. We want to take it with both hands."
