* Spurs score shown first
|
| REVIEW In eleven previous Premier League campaigns Tottenham's 86 points would have seen them carry off the Premier League title, but for the second season running, we came up against a side who had an exceptional season. And in a season when we finally said goodbye to White Hart Lane, it was fitting that Spurs went the whole Premier League season undefeated at home and finish second - the club's highest placing in the Premier League.

| FA CUP A home draw against Championship side Aston Villa gave the relegated club an opportunity to test themselves against Premier League opposition and while they held out for 70 minutes against a Spurs side playing below their best having made a number of changes, Tottenham ran out 2-0 winners, with Villa being unadventurous in their approach. The reward for beating Villa was a home tie against Wycombe Wanderers from League Two and it proved much tougher than the Third Round match. With target man Adebayo Akinfenwa proving a difficult task for the young Spurs central defensive pairing, we were 0-2 down at half-time and only a substitute inspired comeback brought the scores level, by the Chairboys went ahead once more and with two minutes left, the League Two side looked as if they were going through. However, a goal in the 88th minute from Dele Alli and a last second winner from Heung-Min Son saved Tottenham's face and took them to Fulham in Round Five.
Harry Kane put Tottenham into an early lead and went on to add two more in the second half to complete his hat-trick in front of the Spurs fans at Craven Cottage and it was more London opposition in the Sixth Round, with a home tie against Millwall. The League One side had already knocked out two Premier League sides and were looking for their hat-trick, but it was Heung-Min Son who notched three in a 6-0 victory that rarely saw the Lions threaten.
A trip to Wembley in the semi-final matched Spurs with runaway league leaders Chelsea, who had won one and lost one against Spurs this season. The game was probably a thrilling one for the neutral, with Spurs conceding an early goal, Kane drawing level before Son dived in on Moses to give a penalty to the Pensioners, making it 2-1 at the break. Once more Spurs fought back with a well-taken Dele Alli goal, but it took two spectacular goals to win it for Chelsea.

| LEAGUE CUP Being drawn at home to Gillingham of League One in the Third Round gave Mauricio Pochettino an opportunity to give some fringe players playing time and a 5-0 win saw Cameron Carter-Vickers, Harry Winks, Josh Onomah and Marcus Edwards play.
The next round handed
Tottenham a trip to Anfield and with both sides playing younger
sides than in the Premier League, Liverpool's experienced striker
Daniel Sturridge was the difference between the two sides, although
Shayon Harrison had a late opportunity to take the tie to extra
time, but it went the home team's way and Spurs were out. |
