Why Bale Signing Is No Brainer For Spurs

So why is the signing of Bale such a no brainer? Gareth Bale is a world-class player. No doubt about it. Tottenham fans saw the incredible talent of a young Gareth Bale when he was at White Hart Lane. Since then Bale has proved himself as one of the best in the world, despite frequent injury problems. He signed for Real Madrid for the then world transfer record-breaking fee of £85 million pounds. Bale has gone on to score 105 goals and provide 68 assists. Numbers that should make him loved amongst Los Blanco’s fans. However ...

Jose Mourinho says 24y/o made a costly mistake against Lokomotiv Plovdiv

Tanguy Ndombele spared Tottenham Hotspur’s blushes yesterday against Bulgarian minnows Lokomotiv Plovdiv, bagging the winner to help his side book a place in the third qualifying round of the Europa League following a hard-fought 2-1 win.

Jose Mourinho’s side had 76% possession, attempted 12 shots compared to the hosts’ two, and registered six of them on target. Plovdiv scored with their only shot on target of the clash from their only corner, and centre-back Davinson Sanchez was to blame for both. The 24-year-old was beaten to the ball by Georgi Minchev for the hosts’ goal having cause...

33y/o to make debut, 20y/o to start: Predicted Spurs XI vs Lokomotiv Plovdiv

Tottenham Hotspur will face Bulgarian outfit Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the second qualifying round of the Europa League today, and Jose Mourinho’s men will look to quickly bounce back from their defeat at the hands of Everton in their Premier League opener on Sunday. Spurs have made the trip out to Bulgaria for the game, and will also have to travel to either Romania or Macedonia to face the winner between FC Botosani and KF Shkendija if they advance to the third qualifying round. Not everyone travelled with the squad, though, with Dele Alli, Toby Alderweireld and six other players not part of the trip. Nevertheless, Tottenham have enough quality in their squad to stroll to a comfortable victory over Plovdiv, and the trio of Joe Hart, Matt Doherty and Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg could all be making t...

Gary Lineker’s six-word reaction as Spurs secure hard-fought win v Plovdiv

Tottenham Hotspur booked a place in the third qualifying round of the Europa League following a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Lokomotiv Plovdiv in the second qualifying round in Bulgaria. Jose Mourinho’s men found themselves a goal down with 19 minutes left on the clock after a goalless first-half, but they were handed a huge boost eight minutes later after a Plovdiv player was sent off. Harry Kane equalized from the spot afterwards, and the hosts were further dealt a huge blow after another player was sent off three minutes later. Tottenham scored just two minutes later and with five minutes to go through Tanguy Ndombele, and the Frenchman’s goal was enough to send them through to the next round. Going out at this stage would have been hugely embarrassing for Mourinho and his boys, and the...

Spurs star reacts to tweet predicting he won’t be in starting XI after Bale’s arrival

Real Madrid winger Gareth Bale is closing in on a return to Tottenham Hotspur seven years after he swapped North London for Spain.

The Welsh star will be a starter for Tottenham as long as he is fit, and Alli may have to do with a place on the bench in the imminent shake-up. The 24-year-old has rea...

Report: Spurs make approach over striker, his club feel he’s as important as £75m star

According to The Daily Telegraph, Tottenham Hotspur have made contact with Southampton for England international striker Danny Ings but the Saints are hugely reluctant to sell their most important player this summer. Spurs are yet to table a firm bid, and it remains to be seen if they will have a chance of landing the former Liverpool striker. Ings ended last season with 22 Premier League goals, playing a huge role in helping Southampton hold on to their top-flight status following a shaky start to the campaign. They are hoping he will sign an extension soon, and they feel he is as important individually to the club as Virgil van Dijk. The Dutchman joined Liverpool for £75 million in January 2018, and Tottenham clearly won’t be able to tempt the Saints with anything close to such a juicy o...
