So,here we go again.An "unsettled Spurs team....and what happens next? Bloody international break.Just what was needed!
 
What is the going rate for our Academy players? Is it....one will make the PL and 10/20 won't?

I can remember we use to have a successful reserve team and a successful A team,but not many were up to the Football League standard.

The Euro qualifiers in this break start today and there are non-European World Cup qualifiers underway, too.
Ireland face Switzerland later in Group D, while Eriksen's Denmark will be looking to smash Gibraltar.
Nothern Ireland also have a friendly warm up against Luxembourg at Windsor Park.

Wales and Scotland have their first matches tomorrow, hosting Azerbaijan and Russia respectively at 7.45pm.
Germany v Netherlands is the big game of the day, though.

England's first fixture is on Saturday as Bulgaria vist Wembley for a 5pm kick-off.
Should give the lower league fans enough time to get to the pub, if they really want to watch it.

Monday sees another pair of European qualifiers, as Northern Ireland host Germany and Scotland face Belgium.
Two tough tests, while Wales have a more relaxing friendly against Belarus.
England v Kosovo rounds out the qualifiers the next day, while Ireland have a friendly against Bulgaria at the Aviva Stadium.
 
Tottenham midfielder Giovani Lo Celso limped off early in the second half with what Argentina later said was a groin injury, although the player himself told media it was only a minor issue.
