Three wins and a draw against - granted - teams ranging from poor to dire. But only one goal conceeded and improvements starting to become noticeable that Jol was unable to implement. The real test comes against the top six/seven but it's a decent start.

Apart from a 10 minute spell at the start of the second half when Wigan started to press a little more effectively, we looked solid at the back for the first time since Derby. A good all round performance - Berbatov was keen for the ball, Lennon played well up against Kilbane, who is an experienced player, and Jenas broke well from midfield though we still need to work harder without the ball. A good start for Ramos and Gus though we still look unbalanced down the left, despite Malbranque's positive endeavours. Left winger in January? Comolli - get on it!

yes europe, top 4 maybe even win the title I reckon because its a great result beating a team with no manager and 6 loses in a row!

Here is a reality check:

Top 4, no not this season.
Top 6? Only way this is going to happen is if you dont have a dip of form for the rest of the season and blackburn, Portsmouth, villa, west ham do.

So I think to finish top 6 would be an excellent achievement, I dont think you should expect to finish there by right or just because you have a good team, there are other good teams.

A good result against a poor team.

Reality is that Spurs have a tough time ahead, but the new manager isn't biased towards Jol's favourites, so there's hope ..... I think!

A very encouraging performance today against an admittedly poor Wigan side - where were their fans!! However, hopefully with the return of the injured players expected shortly, especially Bale we should be able to push on from this performance. COYS

My grandad has been a lifelong Spurs fan, and as of this evening he has passed away. I have no other way to say thankyou to Tottenham for bringing him so much joy over the years, he has supported them through thick and thin, and I was happy to see the last result he ever saw was Spurs winning. Things like this put football in perspective, but football brought so much happiness into his life, and i had to find a way to say thanku for him. Rest in peace grandad, i love you xxx

Good win. 4-0 is not easy against any team. I am just really glad to hear poyet talk about concentrating on clean sheets. As a comment to the main article, Jol was never that negative at home and i really dont think Ramos has changed too much.
