Gary Neville has backed Tottenham to get into the top four this season and thinks that it could even be in place of Manchester United. Despite being in a state of seemingly consistent turmoil, Spurs moved above Newcastle into the Champions League places with a 2-0 victory over West Ham on Sunday.
The win came the day after Newcastle were beaten by Liverpool 2-0 as the Reds laid down a statement for their own top four ambitions. The Toon are in a rut themselves and have won just one of their last five games, drawing three and allowing other teams into the hunt in the process.
As for Erik ten Hag's men, they went from strength to strength, dismissing Leicester 3-0 earlier in the day. It has created a genuine battle for the European spots that is far from predictable.
