The ex-Newcastle, Liverpool and Manchester City man believes pundits are getting ‘too carried away’ by Spurs’ new ground, suggesting the sole reason for their recent success is their manager.On whether Spurs’ new ground would help take the club to the next level, Hamann said:“I doubt it.“In fact Id be more inclined to lean towards some sort of meltdown rather than moving to the next level.“Pundits are getting way, way too carried away by Spurs, who are basically over-achieving. They arent winning trophies and nor would I have expected them to but other pundits seem to.Spurs’ new ground has earned rave reviews3

“They are over-achieving because they have a fantastic manager in Mauricio Pochettino but he wont be there forever.“He wanted to be around for the move to the stadium but some bigger jobs will come along again.”The victory over Palace was not only important in the sense of continuing the good feeling around the new home but it also put Spurs back in the ascendancy in the race for Champions League football next season.They are currently third in the Premier League with six games to go although just three points separate them from sixth-placed Manchester United, while Arsenal and Chelsea are only a point off third. Hamann admitted the new stadium is ‘great’ but believes the race for Champions League football is a far more pressing issue and failure to reach the top four could lead to a number of the north London club’s players leaving.He added:“And as for the players, if Tottenham dont win the Champions League or dont even qualify for next years Champions League, some of their stars will be off. And they dont actually have too many.“Great clubs are built on squads of 20, 21 or more players; Spurs have 12 or 13.Spurs risk losing some of their best players regardless of their new ground, believes Hamann3
