How did a club that used to stand for consistency and stability suddenly find themselves trapped in this doom spiral?

An away clash at Bournemouth might not have been underlined as a major obstacle in Liverpool's pursuit of the Premier League title but Saturday's clash on the south coast suddenly looks anything but a relaxed trip to the seaside.

Red-hot Bournemouth host Premier League leaders Liverpool on Saturday in what promises to be an absolute beauty of a game.

Tottenham have suffered injuries to the majority of their playing staff this season, and Antonin Kinsky being the only signing this month screams of indecision by Levy. There have been links to Man United’s Alejandro Garnacho, and PSG’s Milan Skriniar, but the latter has now joined Fenerbahce and the Garnacho links have disappeared.

Andoni Iraola has been tipped to strike when the opportunity to leave Bournemouth for a top side arrives imminently.

Andoni Iraola's side have been in excellent form with big results against their fellow top four contenders. We see no reason that should stop

One of them is Jamie O’Hara, who feels Tottenham should sack Ange Postecoglou as Ruud van Nistelrooy’s side came back from a goal down to stage a shock victory — thanks to quick-fire strikes from Jamie Vardy and Bilal El Khannouss.
