Mauricio Pochettino has claimed that not having a home stadium is affecting Tottenham. Our new stadium’s inauguration has been delayed and we do not have a confirmed date for the opening of the ground.
Tottenham have played their Premier League and Champions League home games at Wembley this season. The manager was quoted by the Daily Star as saying:
“It’s true that it’s difficult to always feel like you’re playing away from home.
“We’re managing things so that we’re sure in the future it will be completely different.
“When I signed my new contract we expected a tough period, but it is tougher than we believed.”
Tottenham have seen delays to the new stadium but another step was taken towards its opening as the club’s megastore was opened.
Spurs also didn’t spend in the summer transfer window as we didn’t buy any players, and it will be interesting what our plan of action is when the January window opens.
The Daily Star adds that we are targeting the Burnley match as the first one in our new home. Pochettino recently claimed that we could play our first game at the new home before Christmas, and hopefully, we get a firm opening date for our new home soon.

Spurs have spent a lot of time playing at Wembley but it doesn’t always feel like home. It is testament to the mentality of the players and the manager that we have grown every season under him, even if we haven’t had a real home stadium for a while.
