Tottenham have improved quickly under Ange Postecoglou but a lack of depth may be their undoing
By Ben McAleer for WhoScored
Two teams remain unbeaten after eight games in the Premier League: Tottenham and Arsenal. They are level on points going into the second international break of the season, with Spurs occupying top spot as they have scored more goals than their north London rivals. It’s not a position many would have foreseen earlier this year.
When Ange Postecoglou’s appointment was confirmed in June, Spurs supporters just wanted a manager they could unite behind. José Mourinho, Nuno Espírito Santo and Antonio Conte were nigh-on impossible to warm to, but Postecoglou had brought the Celtic fanbase together and Spurs supporters hoped a similar feeling would coalesce around their club. His achievements so far – igniting the imagination of the fans and taking the team top of the table – are nothing short of a miracle.
