8 wins and 2 draws is probably flattering to Spurs although they were the better team against Arsenal and drew that one, not to mention they were very lucky against Liverpool. Some luck against United but overall Tottenham were the superior team and deserved the win imo

Generally though, Spurs have been the better side in nearly every game they've played, and when you play like that, it's not much about luck. Not to mention things like Spurs having the most touches inside the box in the league, but only a couple penalties (I can hardly remember any so far). Lots of pretty moves that have been close but not quite come off. To me, the team is still improving, even though they've been as good as any team in the EPL this year.

They are also getting one of their best players back from injury in Rodrigo Bentancur.

So there are reasons to think Spurs should continue to improve from here. There are some reasons for pessimism, too: the team lacks depth. Hojbjerg and Lo Celso in the midfield are fine, Brennan Johnson and Manor Solomon up front are also fine, and Emerson and Davies are fine back ups. But they're all "fine". They're not particularly great. If injuries occur, Spurs will begin dropping points. I also think that, while they create bundles of chances, they're still a bit reliant on Maddison, who has probably been the best player in the EPL this season.

I've watched almost every game so far and this team is real, and I think they're capable of being in the hunt for the title the whole season, especially since they're only playing 1 game a week. But as always, injury luck will play a big role, and they're destined to slow down sometime soon.

I think the thing that bodes best for them is their base of Romero, Van De Ven, and Vicario. All 3 have been absolute class this year. Vicario and Van De Ven look like fantastic pickups. Most people would have expected Spurs to drop points on poor defense, but their defense has been much better than expected. Udogie on the left is also brilliant. Bissouma and Sarr/Bentancur in front of them are really effective midfielders in terms of defense too. Richarlison and Kulusevski both put in a shift defensively every week. They have a much more solid base than you'd think. This team is going to be capable of grinding out results even when the football isn't free flowing and beautiful. They've done it twice this week against two sides that can give teams trouble with Fulham (at home) and Crystal Palace at Selhurst

Yeah that's fair. They have Chelsea, Wolves, Villa, City, West Ham, Newcastle in a row next. We'll see what they're really made of in the next 6 games. I've seen a lot of comments that seem to think this team is a fluke though and while I believed that after the first 4 or so games, 6 games later it's clear this team is for real. At least to me.
