Martin Keown has said that he believes Tottenham Hotspur are genuine title challengers this season.
In his Daily Mail column, the former Arsenal defender said Spurs look hungry for success in the Premier League and could still be in the hunt for the title after Christmas.
"Tottenham have belief, energy, pace and look so hungry for success," said Keown.
"Gareth Bale has been exceptional, Luka Modric revived and Emmanuel Adebayor a real handful.
"They are more vulnerable at the back than Harry Redknapp would want but if they can win enough games over Christmas, they will be serious title contenders."
Spurs go into a huge top-four clash with rivals Chelsea this Thursday.
