With Sunday’s entertainment squashed for Tottenham Hotspur fans with our trip to Burnley postponed shortly ahead of kick off following heavy Storm Arwen snow (no jokes about similar shots on target), Antonio Conte is now looking to Thursday’s Premier League clash with Brentford.
Burnley may have been a double edged sword coming so quickly after the pathetic performance and defeat to NS Mura in the Europa Conference League, so even with confidence issues in the camp, Brentford is the easier clash on paper to bounce back in, but sitting in 12th place in the table, this won’t be a walkover either.
Given our performances so far in 2021/22, Conte definitely now knows the challenge he faces at White Hart Lane but bizarrely we remain firmly lodged in the battle for the European slots once again, so if we can sort out this soft underbelly that’s developed and get some confidence flowing in attack, we can quickly turn the current atmosphere around and start moving forward.
The question as always is, will we do that though or will the wheels really fall off?
