Tottenham have had a great start to the season.

Yes, the last two days have been a bit dull following their Carabao Cup exit, but they look unrecognisable compared to last season, and that is a huge positive.

Bissouma’s performances have been incredible. He finally looks like the player he once was at Brighton, and there’s every chance he’ll become even better at Spurs.

Tottenham have a tricky away trip to Burnley coming up. It won’t be an easy game, but if Bissouma continues his good form, Postecoglou’s men should be able to pick up another three points.
