Spurs face a basement battle in the league as Wembley awaits for Rosenior-less Chelsea

Tottenham Hotspur's fight for survival continues with a battle against Wolves this weekend. After Gabby predicted them to take 11 points from their remaining five games, we analyse where those wins are coming from.
Meanwhile, Chelsea head to Wembley under the guidance of interim boss Calum McFarlane, following Liam Rosenior's midweek exit. Would a top performance reflect worse on Rosenior or the players? To help us break it down, we're joined by former striker, Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.
Plus, after 52 years as a Saturday staple, Football Focus takes its final bow at the end of the season. Former host Manish Bhasin reflects on its legacy.
