The View From The Lane: The Athletic FC's Spurs show

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's James Maw and Jack Pitt-Brooke to reflect on Kane's last-gasp winner... and the VAR controversy that followed.

In this special bonus edition of The View From The Lane, Danny Kelly, James Maw and Jack Pitt-Brooke get up close and personal with the legendary Jurgen Klinsmann!

Klinsmann arrived at White Hart Lane in 1995 as a World Cup winner and one of the deadliest strikers around - albeit with a reputation as a cheat and a diver. One writer described him as "the most hated player in world football". But that season at Spurs was transformational for both the club and the Premier League as a whole...

In this hour-long conversation, Jurgen shares lucid memories of his two spells in North London, including his relationships with teammates like Teddy Sheringham; managers Ossie Ardilles, Gerry Francis and Christian Gross; and the chairman who brought him to the club - and subsequently said he wouldn't wash his car with his signed shirt - Alan Sugar.

We then get stuck into more contemporary matters, such as Harry Kane's future, how Antonio Conte has changed the mentality at Spurs, England's chances in Qatar, and whether the tournament should be held there in the first place.

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's Tim Spiers and Jack Pitt-Brooke to reflect on Spurs' 2-0 defeat at Old Trafford... Basic errors, a lack of attitude and a damning post-match assessment from Conte all on the agenda.

If Perisic will complete the front 3 in the continued absences of Richarlison and Kulusevski, the latest on a new deal for Conte (and if he should sign one), plus, a new development in the hunt for the person responsible for the pre-match music at the stadium and why we should all be looking over our shoulders at Newcastle!

Danny Kelly is joined by Jack Pitt-Brooke and James Maw to discuss the comfortable(ish) 2-0 victory over Everton, a game in which Harry Kane made his 400th appearance and continued Spurs' best-ever start to a Premier League season. We head to Old Trafford this midweek with the opportunity to close the gap at the top of the table. But when it comes to our title challenge this season, are you a Højbjerliever, or are you just Bentancurious?

Elsewhere, we continue our observations on the early 2000s indy bangers that are, curiously, dominating the pre-game music at the stadium. Plus, we ponder the return of Nuno to Wolves; indulge in a spot on loanee watch; and ask what's going on behind the scenes as new documents are filed by Enic at Companies House.

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's Tim Spiers and Jack Pitt-Brooke with Spurs top of their Champions League group after a 3-2 win over Eintracht Frankfurt...

But what constitutes a truly 'Spursy' performance, how Son rediscovered his (and the team's) cutting edge, Hojbjerg's forward runs and whether or not you'd give Harry Kane the keys to the kingdom - like PSG did with Kylian Mbappe - if it meant he signed another new deal?

Plus, empty seats on a champions league night, the pre-match music, World Cup winners in the stadium and a preview of our Premier League game against Everton on Saturday.

Danny Kelly has Jack Pitt-Brooke and James Maw for company to look back on the 1-0 win at Brighton - a victory which came with muted celebrations following the sad death of the team's fitness coach, Gian Piero Ventrone, just a few days before.

Also in the podcast, we pay tribute to John Duncan, the great Spurs striker from the 70s. Plus, we analyse the tactical changes that facilitated the success at Amex and discuss Harry Kane's work for World Mental Health Day - whilst worrying again about his ever troublesome ankle.

Finally, we look forward to the Champions League game against Frankfurt and the role of the fans at what we may need to soon start calling The Googledome.
