It hasn’t been a bad start to the 2016/17 campaign for Tottenham Hotspur, although their failure to qualify from the group stages of the Champions League represent an obvious blemish on their season to date.

The club are beginning to get into their full stride in the Premier League, however, with last weekend’s 5-0 thrashing of Swansea City an indication that they are starting to hit top form.

Harry Kane is now fully recovered from an injury and his presence in the side makes them a dangerous force, much to the delight of their supporters here in the Transfer Tavern.

One Spurs fan is enjoying one of the landlord’s monster all-day breakfast’s ahead of a big day of sport and he says that the club are well on course for another top four finish, stating that a return to the Champions League next season would represent a good season.

Tavern writer Lee Clarke looks at three players who Mauricio Pochettino should sign from La Liga in January.

Isco

The Real Madrid man has struggled to hold down a regular place in the Spanish capital this season and a move away from the club could be on the cards.

Spurs could really show their ambitious intent with a move for the Spain international, whilst they could anger their fierce rivals Arsenal in the process.

One Spurs fan is chatting with his pals here in the Tavern and he thinks that Isco signing would be a great coup for the club, stating that Pochettino should do all he can to secure the player.

Sergio Rico

Doubts have been raised over Spurs’ backup to first choice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris and a move for another stopper could be on the cards.

Rico has been in good form for Sevilla this season and at 23-years-old he would represent an investment for the future.

One Spurs fan is playing dominos with his pals here in the Tavern and he is adamant that Rico can one day emulate Lloris and be the first-choice stopper at White Hart Lane.

Sandro Ramirez

The Malaga striker has only recently joined the club from Barcelona, although that hasn’t seemed to deter Spurs away from an interest in signing the player.

Ramirez has been in good form this season netting six goals and at 21-years-old he has a bright future ahead of him.

Spurs are in the market for another striker with serious doubts over summer signing Vincent Janssen, who has failed to make the grade in the Premier League.
