Paul Merson believes Tottenham are in a “false position” in the Premier League and should be top of the pile instead of trying to make up ground in seventh.
Spurs are unbeaten since an opening day defeat to Manchester United, but have drawn five of their nine matches so far.
“They should be top of the league,” Merson told Sky Sports.
“They went to Old Trafford and they should have got a point. They were 2-0 up against Stoke City, and they threw that away.
“They should have beaten Everton at home and they should have beaten Swansea away.
“You put all those points together, and I think they are in a false position. I’ve been impressed with Tottenham, and that’s coming from me. I think they’ve been bang unlucky.”
