All eyes were on Daniel Levy to see whether the Tottenham chairman would improve Antonio Conte's prospects for the second half of the season during the January transfer window. The answer was just about, while leaving everyone wanting that little bit more.
football.london reported back in December that Spurs' priorities for the January transfer window were a new right wing-back and an attacking player. Both of those were delivered in the club's top target Pedro Porro and also Arnaut Danjuma.
The problem though lies with the different interpretations of what those priorities should have been. For most people looking in from the outside, including the Spurs fans, they have seen a team ship 21 goals in 10 games yet score the third highest amount of goals in the Premier League at the other end. So the addition of an attacking wing-back, when they signed a third one in the summer, and a new forward appeared to be less important than bringing in an upgrade at centre-back.
