Even though there is an awful lot on the line on Sunday there appears to be a sense of calm, confident expectancy pervading the supporter base and the club. A sense that this time it really is the beginning.
If you were to look back and see when the glimmer of hope that the club had a plan and was moving forward emerged it would appear to be when the supporter base realized Paratici had made some very good moves in January in terms of acquisitions. The revelation that Kulusevski and Bentancur were actually PL level players astounded the majority. But the love affair with Romero and the club was the key. The player put a sense of fire back on the pitch. A sense of "do not mess with us". It was ridiculously uplifting as a supporter. A sense that perhaps we had finally found Jan Vertonghen's next iteration, if not replacement.
Romero has since become a favourite and when he is not on the pitch there is a sense of unease which to be fair to Davinson Sanchez, appears to be unwarranted, but still. That steel, the in your face attitude, that do not mess with Tottenham is now exuded from the new boy to the new manager. Oh what a feeling!
And the manager. Not much to say other than he appears to have us right on plan. What more could we want? He is the right kind of character and has the right kind of character.
While we still have to win on Sunday, there is now a sense of a journey just beginning. Sunday will determine which train we take, the express or the longer route.
Either way, and with whatever personnel, you can feel, and see, the little bounce the in step of anyone associated with Spurs. It is a magnificent thing to observe because it is no longer hope, it is the quiet, calm confidence of a group moving forward with a plan and the determination to execute.
What a moment in time.
COYS!
