Tottenham Hotspur chairman Daniel Levy should thank Antonio Conte every single day of this summer, however high the Italian's demands are or however expensive ...

With or without Conte, however, Levy must recognise that the onus is now on him to grasp the opportunity he has been so fortunate to receive. Even with Todd Boehly’s billions, it will be years before the Blues can rebuild Stamford Bridge and cash in on the Champions League to the extent Spurs are now able to. The fact clubs will be allowed to make five substitutes next season must also be factored in. There was honesty from both sides, when Levy appointed Conte in November last year. Does Levy really want to make Tottenham a football club that can compete with the best again? That is not to say this will be a straightforward summer, with Tottenham still facing challenges to try to shape the squad in such a way that Conte will believe it is worth sticking around and aiming for the next goal - a real trophy, rather than the metaphorical one he felt Champions League qualification represented.

Unappetizing reviews of the lasagne include a vivid report from a Mr W.Enger, who estimates the putrid dish goes from plate to bowl in 90 minutes.

Poorly camouflaged in pristine chef whites, the suspicious characters were seen scurrying into a service entrance in a none-too-subtle nod to the 2005/6 ‘lasagne-gate’ scandal, which saw the dodgy Italian meal scupper the team’s Champions League hopes after many players went down with food poisoning.

Take a step back and there is a sense of a club on the rise. This is a young squad and there have been clear signs of progress. And that perhaps has been the most encouraging aspect of the run-in, that Spurs have begun to look like a Conte side, overwhelming opponents. Conte, though, could be at Paris Saint-Germain by the start of next season, with the blood-letting in Paris likely to begin this week after it was confirmed that Kylian Mbappé will stay at the club. For Arsenal, meanwhile, there is the sense of a great opportunity wasted. Tottenham and Arsenal both finished the season with a flourish, scoring five goals apiece in wins over Norwich City and Everton, but what really mattered were the two games before that.

They are both sensational players in their prime, offering another reason for the club not to squander their talent and act now. Levy has previously been reluctant to hand total control to his coaches but Conte is notoriously uncompromising and will settle for nothing less than the club's full and unequivocal support. Now, by contrast, there are no excuses for the club not to back Conte. Everything is in place. The time is now. When Conte meets with Levy and managing director Fabio Paratici this week, he is set to demand assurances that the club will invest significantly in quality and quantity over the summer, and that he will lead the overhaul of the squad. Mauricio Pochettino's tenure and particularly the summer of 2018, when Spurs became the first Premier League club since the introduction of transfer windows not to make a signing, is the clearest example of their squandering a position of strength.

Neville said on his podcast: "To do what Son's done at Tottenham, he does get respected, and he'd be taken by any top club in the world, but I thought he deserves something. "I named Son as my Player of the Season. It could have easily gone to Kevin De Bruyne because every time we watch him we're blessed.

When Nuno Espirito Santo was fired in November, months after he was hired to lead Spurs, this team could've gone plenty of different ways. But, perhaps, only ...

Entering a critical summer, everything possible must be done to ensure that Spurs' golden manager stays in charge as he has already shown a taste of what he can do without the team even having a preseason under him. Decisions need to be made on the outside back positions and Ben Davies can't be expected to perform at this level as in the left center-back position for an entire season next year but selling Champions League soccer is always easier than selling the hope of it. Fabio Paratici is very aware of Conte's ways and can help ensure that if a target can't be afforded on Spurs' budget that someone comparable can be added. Conte's machine became a team that could beat you in many different ways and their return to Champions League is a signal that better days are on the horizon. There was doubt that this would be a relationship that worked as Levy prefers shopping in the bargain bin while Conte wants top shelf additions -- and some of those questions are still there entering the summer window -- but with that Champions League platform now there (and the extra money that goes along with it), the hope is that Spurs now can offer what Conte's transfer targets are looking for. After a summer window that saw them flit from name to name in their search to replace Jose Mourinho, almost appointing Gennaro Gattuso as manager before finally settling on Nuno, had Spurs got it wrong yet again when Nuno was fired it would have been disastrous.

This includes, according to both sources, six new players that are a mix of young, up-and-coming talents with resale value (Spurs’ bread and butter) along with older, veteran, peak-level players in order to push to compete with Manchester City and Liverpool.

Tottenham: £200k-a-week star could now make Hotspur Way exit (GiveMeSport)

Tottenham selling Tanguy Ndombele this summer is “on the cards”, according to journalist Pete O'Rourke.

He told GIVEMESPORT: “With him coming back and training on his own, it’s far from ideal. Therefore, once the summer window reopens for business, Spurs will surely be doing all they can to get the midfielder out of the club in some capacity, whether that be a on a permanent basis, or a temporary deal if no one is willing to match Tottenham’s asking-price. So, I think for everybody involved, they would like to get his future sorted and then a move away from Tottenham is on the cards for Ndombele on a permanent basis.”

Daniel Levy set to take advantage of Antonio Conte to secure Spurs ... (Football.London)

Here are our Tottenham Hotspur talking points after Antonio Conte's side secured fourth place in the Premier League with their win at Norwich.

That was all achieved with just two new signings and a lot a work behind the scenes. The player is understood to be happy at Tottenham but that might change if it becomes clear he is not first choice. Hojbjerg has improved in the second half of the campaign with some big performances in big matches, safe in the knowledge that the composed Bentancur has got his back if he decides to run up the pitch. In essence it was a permanent deal but with the fee payable in two years' time. There's many areas we can improve and we need everyone to be going in the same direction. In fact Son is one of the best players in world football now and frighteningly for defenders everywhere he can still get even better. It's important to realise just how much of a bargain the deal for Bentancur is. Conte snarled, he threatened to leave and Tottenham proceeded to win 10 of their remaining 14 matches in the Premier League. Spurs were seven points adrift of the top four after that defeat at Burnley in February and looked out of the race. "The club changed the coach and with injuries we tried to find the good solution. For a man who has won so much in his career, even Conte was left proudly reflecting on the change he has helped instigate in just seven months at Tottenham. The centre-back was asked ahead of the game at Norwich about that word 'Spursy' and he responded: "I see other teams go through situations but there isn’t a word for them.

Here we take a look behind the scenes at Tottenham's celebrations after securing a place in next season's Champions League.

After all the celebrations had died down and Son had picked up his award, he posed for pictures with a number of his teammates. Conte has had to do with limited numbers over the past few weeks due to a number of his players carrying injuries. Son also made his way over in front of the fans and he was given a massive applause for his Golden Boot success. Given a huge round of applause with everyone jumping about, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg was first to him before Pierluigi Gollini quickly came over and soaked Son with the contents of his water bottle. Having seen his teammate's rather unusual celebration, Emerson Royal tried exactly the same but couldn't quite get push himself high enough to sit on the shoulders of the steward a couple of yards away. Just needing to avoid defeat at Carrow Road to pip Arsenal to the last remaining spot at Europe's top table, it was rather straightforward for the Lilywhites as they ran riot in Norfolk with a 5-0 victory.

When we wrote on the signing last summer, it was reported as a €50m (£42.5m) full signing, but apparently that wasn’t quite accurate — it appears as though it was instead one of Fabio Paratici’s classic loan-to-buy deals.

Fast forward to 22 May, 2022 when a beaming Son was being hoisted onto the shoulders of his team-mates after drawing level for goals with Mo Salah, Kane was fist-pumping the Spurs support and Antonio Conte was serenaded by fans drunk on jubilation. Closing the gap on both will be immensely difficult, particularly as Arsenal, Manchester United and maybe even Newcastle, will invest heavily in their squads. Not for the first time, Spurs are approaching a pivotal transfer window.
