Spurs' squad depth isn't as good as the other top sides

Tottenham have an extremely thin squad. As mentioned, if Harry Kane was to get injured, they would only have Vincent Janssen to replace him, who has scored just one league goal from open play. And if Dele Alli and Christian Eriksen were to get injured, who could replace their creativity? Quite simply, nobody. Tottenham have no ideal replacements in any position apart from centre midfield.

Danny Rose has talked about the possibility of leaving Tottenham in his recent interview with the Sun. If he were to leave, there would be lots of players at Tottenham questioning their future with the lack of arrivals and squad depth at the club.

If Tottenham lose any more first team players and fail to replace them, they will be in big trouble heading into the new season, and certainly will not be title contenders.
