That saw frank savant Paul Merson anticipate Tottenham to complete in the Chief Association’s base half, as he told Sky Sports, at that point.

However, presently the previous Stockpile man has turned around and thinks ‘Tottenham are back’, as he told Sky Sports News (16/12/23 at 12:10 pm).


On Friday night, Ange Postecoglou’s side recorded a 2-0 win at Nottingham Woodland to keep up with fifth spot in the table, with any semblance of Newcastle Joined together and Manchester Joined chasing them down.

It likewise should be noticed that, before any semblance of James Maddison and Micky van de Ven experienced enormous wounds, they were finding a spot at the highest point of the table.

Thus, with those two approaching a re-visitation of activity, Paul Merson imagines that the London club are currently a ‘gigantic danger’ to complete in the Chief Association’s main four.

Tottenham to get Champions Association?
“I need to say, Tottenham are back, assuming that I tell the truth,” said Merson. “Getting two or three players to a great extent. I think they are an enormous danger for the main four.”

January move window
Tottenham’s business in the late spring was remarkable. You can’t choose an issue, other than each and every buy being effective.

Remembering that, what is Daniel Duty going to want to do in January?

Besides the fact that Spikes been have hit with wounds, however senior players, for example, Eric Dier, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg and Hugo Lloris simply aren’t in Postecoglou’s arrangements.

In this way, in the event that they can leave, then, at that point, acquiring new faces to support the crew could end up being the distinction in Champions Association football getting back to Hotspur Way next season.

A couple of years prior, any semblance of Dejan Kulusevski and Rodrigo Bentencur participated in the colder time of year to push the group over that line to the detriment of Stockpile.

Tottenham are about to break their transfer record for a superb Premier League player as Postecoglou devastates West Ham’s plans.

Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou is reportedly pressuring the club to make a firm bid for Fulham midfielder Joao Palhinha, despite the fact that any transfer is anticipated to set a new club record fee.

After joining Spurs from Celtic earlier this summer, the Greek-born Australian officially starts his new role as manager today. But the 57-year-old is already in charge, having a voice in the club’s early summer transfer negotiations.

Indeed, it was Postecoglou‘s call earlier this week to sign both Guglielmo Vicacrio and James Maddison. The goalkeeper joined Spurs for £17 million from Empoli. Meanwhile, Maddison has joined Leicester for a fee of £40 million.

Spurs, on the other hand, are far from done this summer and want to pursue Wolfsburg defender Micky van de Ven next. To that goal, chairman Daniel Levy has initiated ‘direct conversations’ with Fabrizio Romano, who claims he is “keen” on the transfer.

Tottenham is also aiming to strengthen their center midfield. Postecoglou is also pressing Levy to approach Fulham for Palhinha, according to The Sun (July 1, page 67).

After joining from Sporting Lisbon for £20 million, the Portugal midfielder had a fantastic debut season in the Premier League. The 27-year-old appeared in 40 games in all competitions, scoring four times.

His tigerish antics in the engine room, though, drew the most attention. With 147 tackles, he was the division’s leading tackler. Moises Caicedo came in second with 100 points, demonstrating how the Portuguese was definitely in a league of his own.

Joao Palhinha is highly regarded by Fulham.

This form has prompted to speculation that West Ham are interested in luring Palhinha across London to replace Declan Rice.
The Cottagers, understandably, are not eager to let Palhinha depart without a fight. Despite spending only £20 million for him a year ago, they are now said to be worth roughly £90 million.

Nonetheless, West Ham are apparently drafting a bid in the hope that a sizable offer will persuade Fulham to sell.

Postecoglou, on the other hand, has made Palhinha his next key priority for Spurs.

To that purpose, they are apparently considering a transaction much above their existing club record of £60 million paid to Everton for Richarlison.

If they are to sign, Postecoglou will need to persuade Levy to swallow some of his pride. This is due to the fact that the Portuguese star was on Tottenham‘s radar last summer. But, after passed up the chance to recruit him for £20 million, Levy will be disappointed to have to pay a far higher amount again.

Furthermore, with Palhinha turning 28 next week, Levy may well wonder how many years he has left at the top.

Spurs may fund the transaction by selling three players.

Postecoglou, on the other hand, appears to be unfazed and apparently intends to persuade Levy to launch a bid.

Spurs, on the other hand, may fund the transaction by releasing a number of players. Tanguy Ndombele and Giovani Lo Celso are unlikely to be included in the new manager’s plans.

Furthermore, rumours say that the club is eager to sell Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, who is becoming a target for Atletico Madrid.

Some may be surprised by the trade, but there are concerns about whether the Dane is mobile enough to play Postecoglou‘s style.
