The Tottenham Hotspur fans who can regularly be found here in the Transfer Tavern are mightily pleased that their team appears to be back on the straight and narrow after a somewhat tricky start to the season.

Wednesday night saw Spurs put three past Hull City without reply and the North London-based club look to be firmly in the hunt for a second successive finish in the top four of the Premier League.

Argentinean boss Mauricio Pochettino is worshiped by the Spurs fans here in the Tavern and the group hope he is their manager for many years to come.

Tavern writer Lee Clarke overheard a group of ardent Spurs boffins talking about their potential transfer dealings in the January transfer window, and with that in mind Clarke looked at two Premier League players who the club could sign.

Jordan Pickford

Spurs could look to secure a deal to sign a new goalkeeper during the January transfer window and Pickford would be a quality signing for the club.

Hugo Lloris is firmly established as the club’s number one goalkeeper but with Europe’s big clubs monitoring the Frenchman, it remains to be seen just how much longer he will be at White Hart Lane.

Pickford has also caught the attention of several of the Spurs fans here in the Tavern, with one believing that the club should do all they can to secure the future of the talented custodian.

Ross Barkley

The Everton midfielder appears to have fallen down the pecking order at Goodison Park and a move away from the club could be on the cards.

The Liverpool-born midfielder has probably underachieved over the years and a fresh start could be the best thing for his career.

One Spurs fan is sat watching Sky Sports News here in the Tavern and he thinks that Pochettino could really get the very best out of Barkley, stating that he would more than welcome the player to White Hart Lane.
