Latest Spurs news: Tottenham stars train ahead of West Ham clash

Tottenham’s stars were in great spirits in training ahead of their clash against West Ham United on Saturday.

Spurs are in a great position to finish in third position thanks to losses for Manchester United and Arsenal, and we have the first leg of the Champions League semi-final against Ajax coming up too.

One player who won’t face the Dutch giants is Son Heung-min. The South Korean is suspended for the first leg but he was seen in training with Christian Eriksen and Toby Alderweireld.

Eriksen has found his form in recent weeks and scored the only goal of the game in our win over Brighton.

Alderweireld did a decent job alongside Jan Vertonghen in the last game, and it will be interesting to see if the pair play on Saturday.

Dier waiting in the wings to start?

Eric Dier has had a stop-start season due to several injuries. The Englishman was on the bench in our win over Brighton and we could do with the midfielder returning to the Tottenham starting XI.

Fernando Llorente has had a decent season for Spurs with some crucial goals this season.

The same, however, cannot be said about Kieran Trippier, who has struggled for consistency after his World Cup heroics.

Ben Davies and Danny Rose have had a bit of a battle regarding the left-back slot in the campaign. It is the Englishman who has put in some quality performances this season too.

Hugo Lloris has come in for some sharp criticism due to a few errors between the sticks but the Frenchman is still one of the best keepers in the world and kept a clean sheet in the previous game.

West Ham won’t be easy opposition on Saturday but a win should more or less guarantee Champions League football for next season too.
