“He’s simply the BEST……”: Glenn Hoddle says £35m rated Tottenham star is the BEST in his position as far as PL is concern [Full story link in comment]
Tottenham have made their fair share of new signings since Ange Postecoglou took over as new manager in the summer.
In that window, the club made moves to sign the likes of Brennan Johnson, Micky van de Ven, Guglielmo Vicario and James Maddison, amongst others.
In January, Daniel Levy backed his manager again. Timo Werner arrived on loan and Radu Dragusin and Lucas Bergvall were signed on permanent deals.
Of course, more new signings are expected in the summer. But according to Glenn Hoddle, Tottenham aren’t far away and he used the aforementioned Van de Ven as an example of the players out there.
Glenn Hoddle says Tottenham defender is next to Virgil van Dijk as the best in the league
Former Tottenham manager Hoddle was speaking on the Chris Cowlin YouTube channel about all things Spurs.
And when asked about potential new signings, Hoddle used Van de Ven as an example of what Spurs need, insisting he’s in the top two in the league in his position.
“Obviously is there’s good players available and you can get them, I mean look at Van de Ven coming to the club. He’s obviously a bit injured at the moment but he looks as if, for me, if he didn’t get injured at the beginning of the season, he would be in most players’ Premier League side. Him and the guy at Liverpool, Virgil van Dijk, they’re the best two in the country. Funnily enough they’re both Dutch, so he’s a find he is. If we get a few more like that in different positions and a couple of wide men, then we aren’t far off it,” Hoddle said.

Look, if Glenn Hoddle is saying you are the business then you must be doing something right.
Micky van de Ven cost Spurs around £35m initially and already it looks like they’ve picked up a bargain really.
Tottenham have made some smart moves in the last few windows. Like Van de Ven, the likes of Maddison and Romero have also been big hits, as has the goalkeeper Vicario.
The key now is for them to continue this run of good signings and add to the depth of the squad.
If they can indeed do that in the summer and tweak a few things tactically, then a title push in 24/25 might not be off the table for Tottenham Hotspur.
