There's a long way to go. But the early signs are good. With what was a sluggish start, a goal shy Harry Kane and a few new additions in set-up Ali, Toby, Son and Dier playing in a new position, we've had a great month. The team, if we can avoid any serious injuries and get Kane to the transfer window in one piece, will improve steadily I feel, game by game.
Our fitness is fantastic so we shouldn't experience any burn out. One can hope anyway. We're out of the League Cup and that could be a big positive for us. We're taking the Europa seriously but Poch been utilising the squad well so far.
There's still room for the team to gel further, but Jesus guys, the signs are good. If we can get a win tomorrow, we'd have to start thinking it a possibility. If we can get a striker in to take some pressure off Harry early doors in January, then I think it's possible.
The spirit in the team is visibly better than it's been for years. There's no reason why we can't get Top 4, as long as we can go to places like Swansea and pick up those away wins and keep our home form ticking over as is, then I'd fancy us.
Christian still has to get his season underway but Jan and Toby have looked very comfortable with each other. With Davies surprising a lot of us, we've got a really, really solid set of options at the back. We have a young, almost absurdly hungry, energetic midfield and a forward line that has creativity and guile in Son, Erikson, Lamela and Kane. I mean, we're in very good shape all over the field. If we had a second striker to help Harry, I don't think we have anything at all that would need addressing in January.
But it's Spurs... I know how this ends most of the time. But we've never been in better shape in the last four seasons. I certainly believe in this squad and I haven't felt like that since Harry left.
