This game week was full of surprises for soccer fans. From Tottenham Hotspur topping the Premier League table with five points clear to Jude Bellingham propelling Real Madrid’s comeback in his debut El Clasico. Fans were in for a roller coaster ride of emotions. On this note, a Chelsea icon, when asked about what was more surprising, shared his take, picking Tottenham’s win against Crystal Palace to be more surprising.

Ange Postecogelu’s Tottenham Hotspur is on a roll with their best start in over three decades. On the other hand, Jude Bellingham is raking in some unbelievable performances for Los Blancos. Even without the presence of a proper No. 9, Real Madrid seems to be having it easy with Bellingham on top of the La Liga scoring charts with ten goals.

When asked which of these two soccer stories is more surprising, Frank Lebeouf shared his take on the baffling question. The Premier League icon picked Tottenham’s win as more surprising. Shedding further light on his take, the former French international said, “I would say Tottenham, I was about to bet that Jude Bellingham would do great because he’s a fantastic player and it wasn’t a surprise it’s just a confirmation of his talent.”

Lebeouf further added, “But to see Tottenham after so many years struggling not having any idea how to control or lead the game to see what Postecoglu is capable or was capable of doing with almost the same players even a lesser quality team because Kane left is absolutely amazing”.

Meanwhile, Ange Postecoglou has fired up Tottenham’s roster. Their incredible start to the Premier League this season has not stunned critics but fans alike. However, with more than half of the season left to go, will Tottenham continue their title battle with the same attitude?

Tottenham Hotspur is experiencing a resurgence under Ange Postecoglou’s leadership. Their recent 1-0 victory over Luton Town on October 7, 2023, propelled them to the top of the Premier League table for the first time in nearly ten years. They hold a substantial five-point lead over the second-place team, their most significant advantage since the 1960-61 title win.

Ange Postecoglou, the mastermind behind this revival, boasts an impressive record of 8 wins and 2 draws in 10 Premier League matches. With just one loss in the EFL Cup, he has instilled a winning mentality in the squad. The departure of Harry Kane saw Heung Min Son take the captain’s armband, and he has excelled, contributing 8 goals and 1 assist in 10 Premier League games. Additionally, James Maddison, the midfielder from Leicester City, has made a significant impact with 3 goals and 5 assists in the same number of Premier League appearances.
