Is it safe to say that nary a Tottenham fan out there is unsatisfied with the first half of the season? Probably.
Sure, maybe you could complain about some draws that should have been wins, or perhaps about the losses to Manchester United and Newcastle, but overall sitting in fourth place just four points off of league leaders Arsenal is better than just about anyone’s expectations at the start of the season.
How did Tottenham get to this point though? What happened between August and now to help – or hinder – Tottenham’s chances at actually chasing the Premier League title?
Thankfully, we here at Hotspur HQ have been diligently reporting on just about every facet of Tottenham and its season from the very beginning. Whether it’s been the furor of the summer transfer window, the settling in of new signings, the resurgence of old veterans or just about any miscellany you can imagine, either Alex Balano or myself has been there to talk about and dissect it.
