We are not a closed squad where nobody is going to move. Maybe nobody will move. The circumstances are that things are still open.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The market in Europe makes things difficult in the way that we work and this type of situation doesn&#8217;t help the coaching staff to create a good dynamic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Can Raheem Sterling be Top Goalscorer? w\/Jamie Jackson and Sam Lee\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g8-k6cnP3wA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Subscribe to <a href=\"http:\/\/sqwk.at\/Squawka-Sub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Squawka\u2019s Youtube channel here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>Spurs draw with &#8220;incomparable&#8221; opposition<\/h2>\n<p>Not often will a team that reached the Champions League final be forced to do a &#8216;smash-and-grab&#8217; in their own domestic league, but that&#8217;s exactly what Spurs did on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>They mustered just three shots all game: both their goals and a Harry Kane effort from 60 yards.
