It's not looking good at present for the "mighty" Tottenham Hotspur. Having spent tens of millions on new players in a bid to challenge the Premiership elite, it seems things at White Hart Lane aren't as rosey as they'd like it to be.
Currently sitting in the Premierships relegation zone, following just 7 points from a possible 30, Spurs are on dangerous ground, and nowhere near where their chairman, manager and fans expected them to be ten games in.
It appears things aren't well in the dressing room either after Tottenhams key man, Berbatov, had to be ordered onto the pitch after appearing to refuse to go on as a substitute. After the match at Newcastle had finished with yet another defeat, Berbatov also appeared to snub Martin Jol's offer of an handshake.
So, will Tottenham be the next Leeds United? Personally, I doubt it. I think they have a strong enough squad and are financially secure enough to avoid the drop and, if they do happen to go down, the parachute payments available these days should see them back up in no time.
Still, nervy times for Tottenham Hotspur and crucially Martin Jol, who I suspect will be looking for new employment before Christmas.
