We are nearing the end of January and the transfer window is about to shutter.
And you know what that means: A look at the month ahead!
Let’s take a look at what February has in store for Spurs:
Tottenham Hotspur men’s squad:
It’s a rare month with only one competition. Spurs are out of the FA and EFL Cup, and, after somehow finishing fourth in the league phase of the Champions League, don’t have to worry about another continental match until March.
Mark your calendars nonetheless: The draw date for the round
of 16 is on the 27th of February.
This means all eyes are on the Premier League, where Spurs are (or are not) on the cusp of a relegation battle. This month features a gauntlet of opponents with Man City, Man United, Newcastle and Arsenal. Does it get anymore difficult than that?
As of this writing, Thomas Frank remains in charge. But the pressure will grow and grow with each week that comes along in the league.
February schedule: Man City (1 Feb), at Man United (7 Feb), Newcastle (10 Feb), Arsenal (22 Feb)
Tottenham Hotspur women’s squad:
We need to talk more about this Tottenham women’s team, which are in an incredible fifth place in the league. They’ve got a couple tough matches this month: first against Chelsea in the league, and then against the London City Lionesses in the FA Women’s Cup.
February schedule: at West Ham (1 Feb), Chelsea (8 Feb), at Aston Villa (15 Feb), at London City (23 Feb, FA Women’s Cup)
