Tottenham will look to end their three-game winless run when they face Wolves in the Carabao Cup tomorrow.
Chelsea beat them 3-0 at home at the weekend to continue their poor run of form.
Prior to that defeat, they had lost 3-0 to Crystal Palace and drew 2-2 at Rennes in the Europa Conference League.
This is a surprising run of form considering that they beat Manchester City 1-0 in their first league game of the season and opened their campaign with three league wins from as many matches.
The Lilywhites will now hope to get some positive results by eliminating Nuno Espirito Santo’s former club, Wolves from the Carabao Cup.
The game will not be an easy one for them as Wolves are one of the toughest clubs to beat in English football and not all the Spurs’ fans are positive that they will get a good outcome from the game.
The club took to their Twitter page to post about the game and here are some of the comments:

If we use the same team against Chelsea that first half we should be able to do something before we run out of steam again anyway.

I agree with you but you misunderstood my point. If we had creativity in midfield Kane wouldn’t need to drop in to midfield. As there is none and he is better creatively than any other of our midfield he is forced to come deep. That is why it is necessary. Jose turning him into an assist machine only came about because he knew there wasn’t anyone to do it bar him. I would prefer we had a Bruno Fernandes and a defensive midfielder who could beat a man and pass forward then Kane wouldn’t need to come deep.
When Kane drops deep Son is an ideal switch to centre forward, very much like the charlatan that is Sterling when Kane plays for England. If it wasn’t for Kane purposefully vacating the space for Sterling to run into he wouldn’t have scored any goals in the Euros.
Kind of agree with you until you say Kane drop back out of necessity. He drops back because he adds that to his game. As the striker you do not give the defense a free pass. You lean on them until they put some resistance or if there is lack of service, that is when Kane needs to use his expanding game not at the first whistle. We are complaining about a lack of service, but my question to you, who are the mids going to serve when the striker is standing next to them in their own half. Lets talk football and what is happening on the pitch. I agree we are really bad in some area. The team do not need Kane to do everything, just go make adjustment upfront. Pull Son closer so he can occupy a defender. When I watch the assists Kane made last year some in particular were long passes and Son should be give a lot credit on the finishes. Right now our midfield is so poor, but to get around it, play out wide and over the top. If Kane is so deep we cannot pin the defense to allow the mids space to operate. So when I say Kane is a part of the mess it is not the person, but the way his game evolve and instead of using it for example on the fast or counter from corners his game now is dropping deep even when it is not necessary. We do not have a target man. We never had much creativity outside of Erikssen, but look how many goals Kane scores. Last year name me the creative midfield, yet he still managed to win the golden boot. The team is flawed, but I do not need our best player to complicate the matter. Change the approach upfront, not resort to playing so deep consistently.
Dele was our worst player on Saturday. I cannot think of one thing he did well. He’ end up doing a stint in Greece or Turkey before his career is over.
You can’t drop Kane, anyone mad enough to suggest it needs their head seeing to. Lukaku was hardly a shining star on Saturday, but Kane got all the stick. I bet if he wore a Chelsea shirt he’d have scored. Gone are the days where Kane gets chances served on a plate. He drops deep out of necessity, as there is no free flowing attacking football on show, just 2 halves of gruel.
Wolves looking for first home win of season…… you’ll be OK lads its Spurs..!!
