Former Arsenal manager and Premier League legend Arsene Wenger has named Tottenham Hotspur as real Premier League title contenders.
In an interview with beIN Sports, Wenger said, “If I said after 10 games [they’d be] top of the league… You ask me, not a tricky question because I like always to say what I feel deeply, and I believe Tottenham will be one of the contenders for the league.”
Wenger’s comments are significant because he is a legendary Arsenal manager who is known for his honest and insightful analysis of the game. He is also someone who knows Tottenham very well, having spent 22 years managing their arch-rivals Arsenal.
Wenger’s comments are also supported by Tottenham’s current form. The club is currently top of the Premier League table after 10 games, and they are unbeaten in the league so far. They have also scored more goals than any other team in the league, and they have conceded the fewest goals.
Tottenham have a number of factors in their favor this season. They have a strong and balanced squad, with a good mix of experience and youth. They also have a world-class manager in Ange Postecoglou. Postecoglou has a proven track record of winning trophies, and he has already instilled a winning mentality into the Tottenham team.
Another factor that has contributed to the team’s prolific run is Postecoglou’s attacking style of play. Postecoglou encourages his players to press high up the pitch and to create chances as often as possible. This style of play has been very effective in creating opportunities for Tottenham’s attackers.
Postecoglou has also been able to get the best out of his attacking players. He has created a positive and supportive environment in which they can thrive. He has also given them the freedom to express themselves and to play their natural game.
Of course, there is still a long way to go in the Premier League season, and there are a number of other teams who are also challenging for the title. However, Tottenham are certainly one of the favorites to win the league this season, and Wenger’s comments suggest that he agrees.
