According to The Daily Mail, Tottenham have come to an agreement with the FA to play all their games this season at Wembley should the need arise. 

This comes after Spurs further pushed back the date of their homecoming to the New Year, with some fearing that the new stadium may not be ready this season.

This will put many Tottenham fans’ minds at ease, as the teams’ future this season has been up in the air. This has seen the team have to make quick solutions, including playing a League Cup match at MK Dons, and playing Man City at Wembley the day after an NFL match.

However, this new deal offers some security to the club’s season. Not only that, but it can be seen as a good thing for Tottenham.

Although it doesn’t seem like it, Tottenham have made their best ever start to a Premier League campaign. Their performances haven’t been particularly inspiring, and it has run parallel with a poor Champions League campaign, but they are currently in fourth place, only one point adrift of Chelsea in third, who have had a good start to the season.

To be in this position during what is regarded as a lean spell for The Lilywhites can only bode well for when they click into gear this season. However, a move to a new stadium midway through the season may seriously disrupt their rhythm. Spurs have only played four home matches out of their opening 12 fixtures, meaning they will have an influx of home fixtures soon. As they are more accustomed to Wembley now than their new stadium, it may be a safer bet to play them there.

Mauricio Pochettino will not want to lose silly points as the club acclimatise to their new stadium, particularly this season, so this Wembley deal may have given them the best hope of success.
