An unbeaten pre-season (but opponents weren’t top class), Moore, Tel, Fernandes and Grey impressing, too many goals still being leaked, but De Zerbi getting his team to buy into his press-bait build-up and aggressive counter-pressing philosophy. Early days, but the squad appears to be enjoying their football again. Looks promising. Fans gotta be happy.

100% finishing 8th or higher, wouldn’t be surprised at like 5th tbh. Solid defence, could do with a proper ST tho!

What do we reckon happens with Moore? I know Koln were apparently close to getting him, but I think he could have a lot to offer De Zerbi

Top four or five for Spurs this season, I think. Just a couple of attacking additions needed

Encouraging signs heading into the new season. De Zerbi is clearly a talented coach. I’ll be intrigued to see the response when the going gets tough though

Feels impossible that they won’t have a good season with the signings they’ve made. Fortunate to finish 17th and be able to spend what they have

Still need a striker for me. Their attacking options are shocking

Agree with this but then, when I try and think of names, there is no stand out candidate that would be perfect for them. Was surprised they never tried to get Vlahović

After how atrocious the last two years have been, I’m not going to be too optimistic about Spurs just yet. Good start but preseason isn’t much of an indicator of how well they do. I think by GW10 we’ll know exactly where they stand compared to the best of the best

Really just not convinced. Until I see a good level in a competitive match I'm not putting my money on a team that has been diabolical over the past two years.

Great opportunity for Spurs this year. No one to really fear with City, Liverpool and Chelsea all in a period of transition. Arsenal are going to struggle to go again. Not saying Spurs will win the title, but I reckon they could make a decent charge

Good to see Spurs actually try again after years of coasting. Fernandes and Tonali are the 2 signings of the summer

Be very surprised if De Zerbi doesn’t guide Spurs back into Europe this season… Top top manager. My only concern is whether they’ll be good enough defensively to really challenge at the top end
jonathan.gorrie1mo ago
They’re going to be much better but can’t help but feel spending all that money on almost only very good but not quite great PL players is a little underwhelming.

I think Spurs will have a good season. Contenders for CL football if there’s no implosion, which you can’t guarantee with Spurs! But still, vast improvement compared to last two seasons I’m expecting.

De Zerbi proving to be a brilliant appointment. He’ll get the best out of them, but they still need reinforcements in attack. Osimhen would be fantastic
