Back on the big stage with even bigger ambitions

THIS should represent the start of a brave new world for Tottenham.

A new hierarchy, new manager and a Champions League campaign in one of the best stadiums in Europe.

The fans have every right to be optimistic because there is also a buzz around the club which makes it feel like a fresh start.

Just last season, there were protests outside the ground against former chairman Daniel Levy because supporters were fed up at the way the club was being run.

Ultimately, Tottenham finished the season at the end of Ange Postecoglou's reign by winning the Europa League (right) and, despite their wretched Premier League form, it gave them a passport back on to European football's biggest stage.
