Tottenham midfielder Christian Eriksen says they’re entering prime form at right time.
Prior to the weekend Tottenham are on a run of 14 matches unbeaten – a sequence that has included wins over Arsenal and Manchester United and draws at Juventus and Liverpool.
Eriksen told reporters: “I don’t know what it is about this time of year but it’s probably all about how we train – we work hard, especially in pre-season and we really pick up this time of the year.
“All I know is the team feels very confident and we’re going in the right direction.
“We started the season well, had a dip and now we’ve really built up again over the last few months.
“There is still everything to play for in the Champions League and getting seven points from the games against United, Liverpool and Arsenal was a great achievement and gives us a lot of confidence going forward.”
