Tottenham

Gary Neville has insisted Tottenham are in a 'great position' to get something out of this season despite their poor recent form.

This doesn't have to be a bad Spurs season.' 'They’ve got to snap out of the sulk. The clouds are gathering but they're in a great position, this doesn’t have to be a bad Spurs season but they mentality has to change.'

Monday was the full Spurs experience: unable to keep the ball, creating few chances and giving Fulham space to attack, yet Tottenham won anyway.

We had a good meeting with the manager to talk about what we are good at, we want to fight -- he is a passionate manager and want to keep working had for him."

Being a part of the team, it is not just the players, but the manager and staff and being there for each other. We want to win every game for him and we want to repay him with victories. The second half was better -- as they played higher up the field and restricted Fulham to a series of half-chances at best. There's no doubting his class, but he was poor in the first half here and was guilty of giving the ball away far too many times.

Side-on to goal, he shifted the ball onto his right foot, had a few inches to aim for in the corner and found it, leaving goalkeeper The goal saw him draw level with the late, great Greaves on 266 goals for Spurs -- it was also his 199th in the Premier League. And that's all that [Harry Kane](https://www.espn.com/soccer/player/_/id/142200/Harry-Kane) needed.

Gary Neville insists it's not too late for Tottenham to keep Antonio Conte after dismissing certain claims about the Italian as a "myth".

Neville is also adamant that Tottenham are the best place for Conte to be at right now. “I think both of them should go and shake hands tomorrow and sign a two-three year deal,” he said. And while Tottenham are fifth in the Premier League and through to the last 16 of the Champions League, the club appear – on the surface at least – to be exactly where they would hope to be. “They’re playing AC Milan in a few weeks time, they’re in the FA Cup, I’d say they’re on track. “I think Tottenham are very lucky to have Antonio Conte,” he said. However, cracks have appeared to show behind the scenes in recent weeks.

"We want to win every game for him. "I think Tottenham are very lucky to have Antonio Conte," the Sky Sports pundit said. Conte's got Tottenham into the Champions League, he's also been back and given £200m to get the players he wants, I'm not sure why these dark clouds are appearing over Spurs. I said that today has to be a starting point for us. They also remain in the Champions League and FA Cup. It's a myth."

Kane curled a shot into the bottom corner against Fulham for his 266th goal for Tottenham, putting him level with the late Jimmy Greaves.

We have to stay in the race for the Champions League.” “We just wanted to get back to basics,” the England captain said. The finish was classic Kane as he moved to 15 league goals for the season, and 199 in his career.

Cristian Romero and Harry Kane's performances in Tottenham's 1-0 over Fulham got the pair a spot in Garth Crooks' team of the week.

"None of that, however, seemed to bother him against Fulham. The Argentina World Cup winner has the sort of bite to his game strikers hate. One player with bundles of bottle is Romero.
