With the first day of the new season just a day away now, anticipation is running high as are our hopes and ambitions. Whilst trying to remain calm, it is hard not to get swept up in the furore that the pre-season campaign and at set of shiny new signings have ignited in N17.With Ramos at the helm, we are really starting to believe, and in contrast to recent years, so it seems are the players. Darren Bent has looked like a man possessed during pre-season and may at last get the chance to shrug off his £16m price tag and become a real spurs hero in what may be a lone striker role. The youth and exuberance of the likes of Messrs Dos Santos, Modric, Bentley, Jenas, Lennon and co really whets the appetite and although we still look short in some areas, most noticeably at CB and CF, things look more positive at the Lane than they have done for a while. There is also still 2 weeks of the transfer window left and with the talent spotting skills of Ramos and co we may still be in for a few surprises.
Tomorrows game see us face a Middlesbrough side who have signed Didier Digard from Paris St Germain and Marvin Emnes from Sparta Rotterdam and who have also lost their opening fixture in each of the last two Premier League seasons.
Spurs have, as we have tried to forget, lost their opening fixture in each of the last two Premier League seasons and won only one of their last seven opening fixtures.
Lets hope this trend is finally put to bed for us tomorrow and we start the season with a nice win!
