So far, Ange Postecoglou and Tottenham Hotspur have had a very successful season.
It simply goes to show how fast fan expectations can alter when, following a magnificent start to life in the Premier League, a couple of disappointing results – plainly due to Tottenham’s injury crisis – and there appears to be a stench of disappointment in the air.
The Premier League is so tight at the top that the top five might change many times in a single weekend depending on results.
Tottenham may now be fifth in the table, but they are only four points behind their north London rivals, Arsenal, who currently sit atop the English Premier League.
As long as their wobble doesn’t grow into a full-fledged crisis, their fortunes should swing around again once their injured stars return.
Not to mention that the January transfer market opens in just a month, and it appears that Spurs will get a good deal, according to Calciomercato.
According to the publication, Juventus has dropped the price of England U21 star Samuel Iling-Junior to €18m/£15.5m.
Tottenham are reportedly interested in bringing him back to London, which would mean he’d be working just five miles from where he was born in Islington.
The opportunity to return ‘home’ will undoubtedly appeal to a player who has struggled to make an impact in Serie A this season.

“He will probably move in the summer at the latest, I understand that Genoa also has some problems, they have to give some money to the state.”
