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

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's James Maw and Tim Spiers after Spurs' unbeaten start to the Premier League season came to a miserable end at Arsenal on Saturday...

Conte's substitutions, squad depth, Emerson Royal's red and Spurs' style all come under the microscope again as the trio reflect on a NLD to forget and look ahead to an increasingly must-not-lose Champions League tie against Frankfurt in midweek.

It's not all doom and gloom though as Danny attempts to lift our spirits by commemorating his 100th VFTL appearance with 100 things he loves about Spurs, in 100 seconds - not to be missed!

Plus, following Monday's plea for football managers who've been sampled in music, Danny leads us on a short journey of musical discovery with an unintended link to the derby.

Danny Kelly has The Athletic's James Maw and Tim Spiers for company to look back on the 6-2 win over Leicester. It was the biggest win of the season and featured an amazing 13-minute hat-trick from Son, who started the game on the bench. So will Conte finally allow Spurs to attack, as they did to such effect in the second half, or will he stick to the tactics that we've seen all season?

Speaking of Conte, we discuss the rumours that he might be off to Juventus come the summer - or sooner - as Max Allegri's catastrophic return to Turin continues to plumb new depths.

Finally, we hear from Chris Howell, a Spurs fan for whom Tanguy Ndombele will now forever hold a special place in his heart.

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's Charlie Eccleshare & special guest - ESPN's Brazilian football journalist Natalie Gedra - to reflect on a very special night for Richarlison as Spurs struggled to a 2-0 win on Matchday 1 in the Champions League...

Natalie gives us the inside story on what Spurs' Brazilian contingent are really like, Richarlison's budding bromance with Neymar, Emerson's fear of 5-at-the-back, why Moura hates his 'impact substitute' tag and even attempts to explain why the likes of Paulinho and Gilberto never quite lived up to their billing in North London.
