‘We’ve got our Tottenham back’

It is 6.38pm on Tottenham High Road but you would think the match had finished two minutes ago instead of an hour and a half. “There’s a lot to cling to which makes it really exciting — that consistency of expectation versus the ‘what the f**k are we going to get’ we’ve had under the last few managers. “It’s quite important to say there were games last year that people left feeling really excited, so it’s not like all of a sudden everything has completely changed. Guglielmo Vicario leads the celebrations “Whilst I think there’s a little bit of a narrative being built that it used to be so bad for four years that we’ve literally been buried under a rock of doom, we have had some good moments — especially under Conte, some great games — but the main difference now is there’s a general Monday-to-Sunday feel about Spurs that we’re going in the right direction.” Sheffield United at home felt like a true test of the Postecoglou revolution. “I said, if Spurs are still truly Spurs, this is the exact game that we’ll lose, at home to, for me, the 19th worst team in the Premier League,” Spurs fan Ben says on BBC Radio 5 Live on Saturday night.
