Gary Lineker has admitted a mistake in his season prediction for Tottenham Hotspur, moving them back into the top four. Initially predicting a fifth-place finish for Ange Postecoglou’s side, Lineker realized his error and corrected it. On The Rest is Football podcast, Lineker expressed his intention to place Tottenham in the top four, competing for a spot in Europe.
Explaining his error, Lineker shared, “I was meant to put Tottenham third or fourth, battling with Liverpool.” Spurs had a strong start to last season but slipped to fifth place by the end. However, Lineker believes they will improve this time around.
Postecoglou’s team has been active in the transfer market, acquiring new talent like Wilson Odebert, Dominic Solanke, Archie Gray, Lucas Bergvall, and Yang Min-hyeok. The Australian coach praised his team’s readiness for the upcoming campaign ahead of their Premier League opener against Leicester City.
In an interview with the Men in Blazers YouTube channel, Postecoglou reflected on the team’s growth and challenges from the previous season. He mentioned the excitement and resilience shown by the team, along with the learning curve from disruptions and lack of discipline.
