Where are Tottenham Hotspur heading? -Tottenhamnews

A new manager, André Villas-Boas, appointed before the start of the last season who has experienced under Jose Mourinho and has won a treble at Porto F.C. He stays yet for another season for the first time in his career with the intention that Tottenham look prosperous.

Although, Spurs have had to sell their main target man Gareth Bale, this season, they have reinvested in a very clever manner. But this is the right move forward? Yes it is. And is this their strongest team?

Well lets look at the players Spurs have had over the last few season. Dimitar Berbatov, Luka Modric, Rafael Van Der Vaart, Gareth Bale, Kevin-Prince Boateng, Robbie Keane, Michael Carrick. These are just some of the top names of back then and boy, what brilliant players have they turned out to be.

Spurs are a transition club. Every player who joins the team and has a great season, leaves in the very next. Each one of those players has had the capability to be at a top class team, and they did. They all/were playing for some of the biggest clubs in the world. Well, what would happen if they stayed? They scenario for the team would be completely different. The team would develop together and over the years, they would all have a better understanding between each other. Each of these players would probably be in their top form which meant consistence in performances and results going their way. Moreover, if new players joined, whether being top class or upcoming talents, they would improve the competition, motivating these players to increase their performances day by day.

Let’s take a look at the current team that has been brought in for this season. Erik Lamela, Vlad Chiriches, Lewis Holtby, Christian Eriksen, Hugo Lloris, Jan Vertonghen. Most of these players are upcoming talents or players who are just about to reach their prime. If even one of them has an outstanding season, they will receive offers which would be irresistible and if Spurs follow their same policy, they will never be able to achieve their targets. You always have to keep hold of your main players.

Daniel Levy tried his best, but failed to do so with Gareth Bale. He needs to lure the player out, showing how determinant he is and make the player stay loyal to the club. If he starts selling key players, Spurs will always be in the transitional period and will never be consistent. United and Arsenal for instance tend to do that. Although their players are not on top of the charts, it’s the understanding between the players that develops over time that gets you results.

Tottenham have it all to be a top club in England and could even probably prove themselves in Europe. But there needs to be a chance in their functioning. I hate to admit it but they are a selling club, just like Arsenal. Both the North London teams are similar but Arsenal have a head start this time around. If they are able to keep hold of the key players of this team for the next two to three seasons, they will be able to achieve at least a fix spot for Champions League.
