Tottenham Hotspur’s recent upturn under Roberto De Zerbi has sparked fresh debate over what the club could achieve next season, with pundits now divided on whether Spurs can push themselves back into the European places if they avoid relegation.There is no arguing against the impact Roberto De Zerbi has had on Tottenham Hotspur since he took charge of the north London club a few months ago.Before the Italian’s appointment, Spurs were staring down the barrel of relegation after going without a Premier League victory in 2026.However, in his first four games in charge, he turned Tottenham’s fortunes around, collecting seven points from a possible 12 and winning two consecutive matches during that spell.He has now lifted Spurs out of the relegation zone, although there is still plenty to play for with West Ham United retaining hope of survival.Credit: @thefrederikkejensen / InstagramTottenham backed for European push under Roberto De Zerbi by Gabby AgbonlahorThe feel-good factor is back at N17, and several pundits have already started looking ahead. Spurs Web recently relayed Jamie O’Hara’s comments on where he believes Tottenham could finish next season under De Zerbi.The former midfielder suggested a European place could be within reach. Now, speaking on talkSPORT, Gabby Agbonlahor has also shared his view on how high Spurs could finish next term.Discussing Tottenham’s prospects under De Zerbi, Agbonlahor pointed to the quality already within the squad and the manager’s influence as reasons why he believes Spurs could challenge for Europe. He said: “I think if they stay up as well they would finish in the European places next season. Do you know why I say that, mate? Because people will laugh and I think Jamie O’Hara said the same thing earlier. “When you look at the squad of players they have got, you look at the Maddisons coming back – I know Simons will be out for a while – if they have the right money to spend, they have got a manager there.“I like him because he is tactically aware and he has got that fear factor. When you speak to players that played under him, he is no nonsense and I just feel if Spurs do stay up and get the right players in the summer, they have got a decent squad of players. You are quick to forget Nottingham Forest are the same, they should be nowhere near it.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by talkSPORT (@talksport)Agbonlahor’s Spurs prediction is dismissed by Max ScottMax Scott, however, did not agree with Agbonlahor’s assessment. Asked about Tottenham’s fully fit starting XI, Scott acknowledged the quality within the squad but insisted predictions of European football next season were unrealistic.Speaking on talkSPORT, Scott explained why he believes Tottenham still face major issues despite De Zerbi’s impact. He said: “Of course it is not a bad XI, of course they have got some great players that have unfortunately been really injured, but to say Spurs are going to get European football next season, I think is so much of a stretch it is ridiculous and it speaks of that big-six mentality that these clubs have a divine right – absolutely not.“Roberto De Zerbi is a top manager, I love the cut of his jib, he has got cojones, but what self-respecting world-class player is going to want to go and play for Spurs next season? It is not about De Zerbi, it is about the mess at the top of the football club and I just think it is too much of a stretch to say they would do that.”READ MORE: Tottenham willing to trigger £26m release clause for La Liga ‘hitman’ but Arsenal want him tooThe post Agbonlahor makes huge prediction for where Tottenham will finish next season appeared first on Spurs Web.
