But there have been ups and downs and it’s not going really well at the moment.“It’s really important that we get out of this. We just need to get some points. The last games, we’ve been losing too much in my opinion. This needs to change.”When asked why Spurs have been struggling at home, the centre-back said: “That’s really difficult to say why. If we knew the problem with the home form, we’d do something about it. We don’t win easily at home, I don’t know exactly what it is.“It’s something as a player group that we need to change, people need to be scared to come to our stadium. It’s something we need to do together.“You speak sometimes about it with the players: is there something going on in the player group? But I have no clue what the exact point is why we struggle at home. That’s just something we need to change.“James Maddison has unfortunately been out for a long time, Dejan Kulusevski’s been out for a long time, Dom Solanke has also been out for a long time – that’s three important players for us.“When they come back, hopefully things are going to change. But we can’t blame injuries for our home form being this bad. Because 15 points, that’s only five wins. That’s not acceptable; that’s something we really need to change.”Van de Ven believes Spurs can achieve something special this seasonDespite the team’s struggles so far this campaign, the 24-year-old insisted that there is a lot to look forward to in 2026, with the FA Cup on the horizon and Spurs going strong in the Champions League.The former Wolfsburg man confessed that he is also excited about the prospect of playing in the World Cup for the first time next summer.Van de Ven added: “First, we need to make sure we play with stability, that we play more consistently. There are too many ups and downs.“Then we just want to play Europe next year, that’s the big aim – it’s where this club needs to play. There’s the FA Cup still to play for, a lovely competition. And we’re still in the Champions League.“And me personally, I just want to be fit for the whole season. And then there’s the World Cup. We have some great defenders at the moment with the Netherlands, there’s some tough decisions to make for the gaffer.“I want to be there, my first World Cup would be an unbelievable experience. I was there two years ago for the Euros, another massive thing for me personally. And our chances? We have a really good team but other countries are really strong. You can have one day where you have an off day and you can go back home.”READ MORE: Thomas Frank sets fan expectations for Tottenham’s January transfer window plansThe post Micky van de Ven shares brutally honest thoughts on the shortcomings at Tottenham appeared first on Spurs Web.
