Spurs fans on Twitter have been reacting to some quotes from midfielder Tanguy Ndombele regarding the north London club’s chances in the Premier League this season.
The Frenchman spoke to Sky Sports (via The Spurs Express) about the Lilywhites’ start to the 2020/21 Premier League campaign, saying:
“Our objective has always been to get into the top four. More than that? Why not? But nobody wins the league in six matches. Even if we were top of the league at this stage there’d still be 32 matches to play.”
The 23-year-old endured a difficult first season with the Lilywhites after joining from Lyon last summer, with fitness issues particularly proving a problem, but he has turned things around and established himself as a regular in Jose Mourinho’s side so far this season, having made nine appearances in all competitions for the north London club, contributing two goals (per WhoScored).
Can Spurs win the league this season?
Yes
No
His performances have helped Spurs register a strong start to the 2020/21 campaign, as they remain undefeated following their opening game defeat against Everton, and currently sit in fifth position in the Premier League following their 1-0 win at Turf Moor on Monday night.
So what did these Spurs fans make of Ndombele’s comments about the north London club’s title chances?
