Tottenham, which was cursed before the season and whose long-time mainstay Harry Kane has left, dominates the Premier League after the 9th league round! The victory against Fulham was secured by a pair of key figures of the current squad, Son Heung-Min and James Maddison.

That being said, Tottenham weren’t trusted much in pre-season. However, Ange Postecoglou has managed to assemble a very capable team that now dominates the entire league.

Spurs have already faced Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool and the result is 7 points from these three difficult matches. The only team that has managed to beat the London team this season is Fulham, and that too on penalties. However, that was in the second round of the Carabao Cup, not the Premier League.

Tottenham, along with Arsenal, are still unbeaten in that competition. In addition, it boasts an excellent 20:8 record. This is what the fans like, especially when we are not talking about some lucky results or West Ham’s successful but very defensive style.

Postecoglou has brought with him to London an attacking style of football that is celebrating success. The proof is already 23 points, 2 more than Manchester City have with Arsenal for example. And, of course, Tottenham sends 18.7 shots at the opposition goal per game, the most in the whole league.

It must be somewhat difficult to keep track of these achievements for Kane, who after many seasons in London has gone to Bayern Munich, where he is nevertheless also thriving. Many feared that his much needed goals would go with him, but someone else has taken his place.

It is the current Spurs captain, who started the season on the edge of the pitch, but scored a hat-trick in the very first game in which the coach moved him to the top.

Since then, he has added 4 more goals and together with Mohamed Salah, he is now chasing the current top scorer of the Premier League, who is none other than Erling Haaland with 9 shots.

Tottenham will stay in London for their next game as well, this time visiting Crystal Palace. The latter destroyed Newcastle 4:0 two days ago, but otherwise the Eagles players are giving a very good performance and will definitely not be an easy opponent.
