There really hasn’t been much to shout about at Tottenham this season.
Indeed, Spurs have been terrible this term. Ange Postecoglou’s side sit 15th in the Premier League table right now, and the manager is under pressure.

However, it hasn’t all been negative for Tottenham this season, as there have been some bright sparks.
Dejan Kulusevski has been Tottenham’s best player this season in a newfound midfield role, while Djed Spence has reinvigorated his career at Tottenham too.
Meanwhile, a couple of Spurs’ young talents have impressed as well, and speaking to We Are Tottenham TV, Harry Redknapp has been singing the praises of both Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall.
Harry Redknapp hails Tottenham youngsters
Redknapp spoke about how good Gray and Bergvall have been this year.
The former Spurs boss says that Gray has been fantastic, while he said he loves Bergvall as a player, claiming that he’s been excellent.
Bergvall has received plenty of praise this season from a number of pundits.
“There have been a few pluses this year, The big pluses this year have been the two kids who have played,” Redknapp said.
“The boy Gray has been fantastic, and the other lad as well, Bergvall, he’s been excellent, I love him, he works hard, a good player, the left-back and right-back have done well, but a lot of them haven’t performed up to standard. Even someone like Sonny has had a disappointing season this year.”
Harry Redknapp’s young stars at Tottenham
Harry Redknapp has loved watching Bergvall and Gray come through this season, and Redknapp himself knows a thing or two about turning young players into superstars at Tottenham.
Indeed, Redknapp had the pleasure of working with some fantastic young players at Spurs who would eventually blossom into top class talents.
Kyle Walker became a £50m player eventually after cutting his teeth under Redknapp, while Gareth Bale became a superstar after Redknapp worked with him as a youngster.
Luka Modric was only 22 when he arrived at Tottenham too, and he would eventually become a Ballon d’Or winner a decade after working under Redknapp.
Harry Kane also made his Tottenham debut under Redknapp, before he became a global superstar.

Of course, Redknapp also managed a golden generation of young players at West Ham as the likes of Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard and Michael Carrick came through under Redknapp.
Ange Postecoglou is under pressure, so whether or not he gets to see Gray and Bergvall develop is up in the air, but, one thing is for sure, Spurs do have two top class young talents on their hands here.
