So with that being said, football.london compares the Gunners' next four matches to those of Spurs, United and Chelsea - who are all competing for a spot in the ...

Watford (H) - May 22 However, the Magpies have been in stellar form recently, meaning they will be no pushovers for Mikel Arteta and Co. Goals from centre-backs Rob Holding and Gabriel Magalhaes helped Mikel Arteta's side regain their fourth spot from Tottenham Hotspur, who had beaten Leicester City earlier in the day.

Son Heung-min's double after Harry Kane's header gave Tottenham a 3-1 victory over Leicester in the Premier League.

Leicester scored a consolation in stoppage time when Kelechi Iheanacho sent a low shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the area. Son’s second came after he picked up the ball on the right, cut inside and curled a shot high into the net. Son provided Tottenham’s opener in the 22nd minute by delivering a corner for the unmarked Harry Kane to head into the bottom corner to end a five-game goalless run.

Tottenham threw down the gauntlet to Arsenal in the race for fourth place with a, belatedly, comfortable 3-1 win over Leicester City at Tottenham Hotspur ...

Leicester City turned over possession in their own half 12 times against Spurs - double the tally of their opposition- and 30 times overall. Tottenham had 13 shots against Leicester, 10 from inside the box, after two consecutive matches without a single shot on target. Son got the assist for Kane’s opener from a corner, found time in the Leicester box to spin and finish for the crucial second goal and then added a magnificent strike late to seal victory. Heung-Min Son delivered the three points with moments of absolute genius and looks to have found the form which had deserted him in recent weeks. Kulusevski now has eight assists and three goals in 14 appearances since joining in January and must be making a late run for Young Player of the Year. Substitutes: Kulusevski 8, Winks N/A, Bergwijn N/A

Cristian Romero delivered another masterclass in defence as Tottenham beat Leicester City 3-1 on Sunday afternoon.

Paratici pulled off a transfer masterclass convincing the player that Spurs was the place for him to be despite their lack of Champions League football and the deal is only going to benefit the club for years to come. There was no problem with the tackle," he said in his post-match press conference. "I had a problem with us not winning the tackle. Selling Eric Dier short with a pass inside his own box, he needed his teammate to react quickly and clear the ball away from danger before it was intercepted in such a good position. His biggest contribution came on the hour mark as he played a major role in Son Heung-min's first of the game. Signed on a season-long loan deal from Atalanta with an option - not obligation - to buy for £42.5million, the Lilywhites will complete the permanent signing this summer.

Jonathan Woodgate has praised Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Cristian Romero on Match of the Day 2 on BBC One for his performance against Leicester City.

He is so quick across the ground.” Woodgate said about Romero: “He has been a fantastic signing. The former Tottenham defender has said that Romero has been superb for Antonio Conte’s side and has been a fantastic signing for the North London club.

JAMIE O'HARA has a clear favourite for the top four amid claims that Arsenal will blow three of their final four Premier League matches.

Newcastle are still in the bottom half but have seen a dramatic upturn in form since Eddie Howe's reign hit top gear, and Everton could go into the final day fighting for their Premier League survival having last been relegated in 1951. Ex- Tottenham player Jamie O'Hara has tipped Arsenal to crumble under the top-four pressure by winning just one of their final four Premier League games this season. As it stands, the Gunners are two points ahead in the table with four matches to go.

Dejan Kulusevski has made an immediate impact at Tottenham. His arrival in the January transfer window coincided with a marked upturn in their fortunes and ...

17. West Ham – 12 points (GD -4) (11 games played) 14. Aston Villa – 14 points (GD +2) (12 games played) Note: all teams have played 13 league games unless stated otherwise. 11. Manchester United – 16 points (GD -4) (12 games played) “For sure is he an important prospect for the present and for the future. Also because I can see the intensity, the will and the desire to play.

The Premier League is reaching the business end of the season, and the good news for the neutral is that it's still all to play for.As well as the ong.

“I’m a big fan of Leeds, but they’re lacking quality in the final third. “That what they’d like from the next two home games and the away games. “Jesse Marsch deserves credit for the points tally that he’s got. “They really dug in with some of the tackles. “We’ll slip up and Arsenal will slip up. If we step up I think we can turn them over, I really do.

Steven Bergwijn sounds frustrated. You can't really blame him. Signed in January 2020 under Jose Mourinho, he scored an incredible goal against Manchester ...

He is a striker, a fantastic striker, but in this position, there is Harry and then Sonny. Deki gives us quality and quantity, and sometimes it’s very difficult. In his post-match press conference after Tottenham’s 3-1 win over Leicester this weekend, Conte was asked about Bergwijn, likely due to Stevie’s comments to the Dutch press, and the Italian admitted that Bergwijn isn’t being fully utilized. Bergwijn needs consistent minutes for a variety of reasons, but none more than that it’s the best way for him to ensure a spot in the Netherlands’ World Cup squad this coming winter. In the summer we really have to look for a solution”. Denmark and Germany in March. Ajax showed an inordinate amount of interest in signing Bergwijn this past January, but Spurs were reluctant to sell him at that time. “A place in the starting line-up?

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Antonio Conte has told Football.London that he is not always fair to Steven Bergwijn, who does not start regularly.

“For sure maybe I’m giving [Steven] less than he deserves, and I want to be honest. Conte said about Bergwijn to Football.London: “For me, it’s a bit difficult to keep him on the bench because Steven is maybe the player he should deserve more, but we have to try always a good balance. Conte has said that Tottenham winger Bergwijn deserves to play more, but he has so many other options in attack that the £27 million winger ( BBC Sport) does not start regularly.

Antonio Conte revealed he informed Heung-min Son of imminent substitution before South Korean netted stunning third goal for Spurs; Tottenham drop back down ...

But it's important at the end of the season to celebrate a big achievement with the team. "Today it was vital to get three points. "It was a good performance against a really good team," he said.

The Argentine defender has been a revelation since his return from injury at the start of the year but he has also been making great strides off the pitch ...

Nonetheless, the 24-year-old has been a breath of fresh air in the Spurs defence and is sure to seal a permanent move this summer. This goal for me goes to Cuti because he deserves the credit 100%. I'm very happy to score the goals but this one goes to Cuti." "Cuti did an unbelievable job, not only this situation but the whole game.

Garth Crooks has written on BBC Sport that Tottenham Hotspur will not sell forward Son Heung-min in the summer transfer window.

The challenges resulted in Son getting his first goal. The South Korean needed no help at all with his second. “Tottenham’s refusal in the summer to ‘take the money and run’ is starting to look like bad business.

Oliver Skipp's injury situation has proved a “worry” for Tottenham, according to Daily Star journalist Paul Brown.

I think they were hoping to have him back, Conte never seemed confident, but there was a window a few weeks ago where Skipp looked like he might be able to return before the end of the season. However, the emergence of Skipp has definitely been a massive positive for Conte, who appears to have an extremely talented midfielder on his hands. His most recent outing came in the Premier League defeat at Chelsea in January, and while Conte was hopeful of Skipp making a return before the campaign finishes, Tottenham recently confirmed that he’s undergone surgery on a pubis issue in America and will return in pre-season.

Journalist Pete O'Rourke believes that the uncertainty of Antonio Conte's future could make potential Tottenham transfer targets think twice about joining ...

It’s already been reported that the boss is looking at signing six new players during the upcoming transfer window in a bid to rebuild his squad, but that could prove to be a difficult task if the future Spurs stars don’t know who they will be working under. When asked about how he thinks Tottenham’s transfer business will play out, O’Rourke told GiveMeSport: “Obviously, it’s not great to attract players if there are doubts over the manager’s long-term future, because players want to know that they will be playing under this manager, if he wants to sign them. As a result of this, O’Rourke has suggested that players will feel hesitant in being able to commit to moves if it’s unknown whether Conte will be there ahead of the start of the new campaign, but still expects people behind-the-scenes to be focusing on capturing their targets regardless of the managerial situation.

Conte has been excellent since he arrived at Spurs, pushing them onto the bring of Champions League qualification in just a matter of months. He got two new ...

There will be a meeting at the end of the season, and they will decide together.” So this is the message from Conte. He wants a big revolution at Tottenham. He wants big players signed. Conte has been excellent since he arrived at Spurs, pushing them onto the bring of Champions League qualification in just a matter of months.

Here are our talking points from Spurs' 0-0 draw with Brighton & Hove Albion at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Monday afternoon.

His arrival from Wigan only two years ago made it difficult to involve him in the young Europa Conference League squads early this season as he could not be registered on the B list of young club players. However, when Spurs jettisoned three central midfielders in January so he returned and Conte decided that the recalled Bowden would help to supplement the squad. All the while he was talking to everyone around him, telling the full-backs to push up or hold back and carefully watching how the match was playing out. The key for Scarlett as he learns off the likes of Harry Kane and Son will be learning how to impact matches when he's not seeing enough of the ball. Next season Tottenham are expecting to receive more approaches from Championship clubs, although a move to League One might suit the young player better at this age. Physically you can see Scarlett has bulked up with his exposure week in, week out to first team training and working with Conte's fitness staff.

Tottenham Hotspur ace Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg could be allowed to seal a 'shock' exit as he has become 'less important' in Antonio Conte's system, ...

Cashing in on Hojbjerg – who is valued at £36million by Transfermarkt – could also increase the Italian’s summer budget and alter the plans he is making at Hotspur Way, so it may make sense to sanction the Dane’s departure. However, the journalist also feels Hojbjerg is no longer a key component of Conte’s plans in north London, meaning there is a possibility that he could be among the big names to leave Spurs in the coming months. Brown believes it would come as a surprise to many if Hojbjerg were to leave Tottenham in the summer.

According to Alasdair Gold in Football.London, the club will look to send striker Dane Scarlett and midfielder Alfie Devine for first team experience next ...

Gold notes that both players were purposefully kept around the Spurs development setup the past couple of seasons in order to get them used to first team training at Hotspur Way, but that Scarlett and Devine would benefit from regular first team football to continue their development next season. Loans for Scarlett and Devine imply not only that they’re ready for that next step, but also that the club still thinks that they could turn into very good footballers at some level. Scarlett is quite possibly the developmental striker with the most hype right now, and that list includes Troy Parrott. Scarlett first came to the attention of Spurs fans when he was praised by then-manager Jose Mourinho, and even got some first team minutes during Mou’s tenure.

Tottenham wing-back Ryan Sessegnon has insisted that he and his team-mates have not been unsettled by talk of Antonio Conte leaving the club during the...

“For me it's about believing in myself and getting in that positive run, feeling good and keep pushing.” “It has not been easy since I've been at the club, but step by step he gives me confidence in every game to go and do what I can do,” he said. Asked whether he hoped Conte stayed, he replied: “Of course, he's a top manager and he's shown that with us this season.

Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero has been praised following his impressive performance against Leicester City, which inspired a new nickname from ...

Romero was given the nickname 'Cuti' as a youngster as he struggled to say 'Cristian'. And following his impressive performance Dejan Kulusevski revealed the fitting new nickname the centre-back has been given by his teammates. Romero has become a key cog in the Spurs defence following his signing from Atalanta last summer.

Transfer insider Dean Jones says he'd be surprised if defender Denzel Dumfries joins Tottenham this summer, but Antonio Conte could be the man to make it ...

It would be surprising to see him turn his back on Inter so quickly and seek a new challenge. From what I can tell, he seems happy with where he is, and he’s new to the club. “Maybe the Conte factor would be enough to do that, but I still think it would take a big sales pitch to get Dumfries at this stage to join a Tottenham team who aren’t as good as Inter Milan are.”
