Tottenham can win the Premier League, says Ginola

The former France international believes that
although Spurs usually struggle in March and
April, they are better equipped than ever
before to mount a serious challenge
EXCLUSIVE
By Greg Stobart
Tottenham legend David Ginola says Andre
Villas-Boas ’ side can win the Premier League
title this season and feels the club’s summer
spending has created a vastly improved squad.
Spurs spent more than €118 million on seven
summer signings to compensate for the loss of
star man Gareth Bale to Real Madrid in a world
record €100m deal.
And the Londoners have started the campaign
in impressive form having picked up nine
points from their first four league fixtures
ahead of Sunday’s trip to Cardiff.
"Why not win the title?" Ginola told Goal . "The
season in England is long but they can do it.
The crucial moments are in the spring - in
March and April - and Spurs for some reason
have sometimes found it hard at this time.
"But they have a better squad to deal with that
this year. They are playing as a team rather
than relying on Gareth Bale so much. Last
year, you knew Bale would produce some
magic but AVB wants to focus more on the
group now.
"Now other players are more likely to take
responsibility and [Gylfi] Sigurdsson is a good
example of that because he scored two goals in
the win against Norwich.
"The squad is very balanced and that is the
best way. You saw with Bayern Munich they
won everything last season by playing as a
team, being balanced and having quality in all
areas."
Playmaker Christian Eriksen caught the eye on
his Spurs debut in last weekend’s 2-0 home
win over Norwich and Ginola says the €13.6m
signing from Ajax could be the most important
of the club’s signings.
“Eriksen took no time to step in and start
playing at high quality,” Ginola added. “He
seems already appreciated by the fans and
players and he is very young.
“That is very important to me. They have spent
the money wisely, bought young talents and
have a bright future.
“They are thinking about this season, yes, but
also the next three or four. There is a core of
young players now who will grow up in the
club and become part of the club.”
