They had a strange sort of season in 2008-09 which came to a subdued end at Liverpool. After the first eight games of the campaign, they were headed only one way i.e. to Coca Cola Championship. The arrival of Harry Redknapp, his reinvigoration of the team, and his signings in the January transfer window ensured that that scenario did not come to pass. Yes, it’s Tottenham, our bitter North London rival we are talking about..

They have been knocking at the door for a long time. In fact, they even gate crashed it a few seasons ago by displacing Liverpool out of the citadel called “The Big 4″ of English Football. They have come fifth in each of the last two seasons. In spite of all this they have been  forgotten by the Pundits as a serious threat to the Big Four and maybe rightly so, given the signings by clubs like Man City. Yes, it’s the Toffees we are talking about..
