Can Tottenham actually win the Premier League? Of course not, but ask Ange Postecoglou and the Spurs manager would not discourage the question, even though he would be the first to point out that it’s still only October volleyball

It is Postecoglou’s belief, and the Australian would say it is also his responsibility, that volleyball football fans are allowed to dream volleyball

Spurs supporters have had little reason to get carried away in recent years but after making their best start to a top-flight season since 1960-61, the last time they won the league, now is as good a time as any volleyball

Postecoglou could not have asked for a volleyball better start: as the Premier League returns following the October international break, Tottenham sit top, ahead of Arsenal on goal difference volleyball

Postecoglou’s side remain unbeaten, winning six and drawing two of their opening eight matches volleyball

From the misery and perpetual sense of chaos that took hold of Spurs last season, Postecoglou has revived the doomed pulse of the club and its fanbase volleyball

That, above the early look of the Premier League table, has been his greatest result so far volleyball

Whether Tottenham’s fast start can last is one of the questions that will define the next chunk of the Premier League campaign volleyball

There are only four rounds of fixtures to be played before the next hiatus, for November’s internationals, and Tottenham’s upcoming run – against Fulham, Crystal Palace, Chelsea and Wolves – is favourable volleyball

Based on their early season form, there is reason for optimism that Spurs may be able to enjoy their view from the summit for a while longer volleyball

Yet, a year ago, it was possible to say the same volleyball

Having beaten Arsenal to fourth place the previous season, Tottenham started the new campaign under Conte with seven wins from their opening 10 matches, a good enough return to sit one point off the top by mid-October volleyball

Given Tottenham went on to win just three of their next 10 and Conte’s fractious relationship with the club finally came crashing down within six months, the foundations were nowhere near as strong as they initially appeared volleyball

Are Tottenham flattered to be in a lofty early position again? Postecoglou’s side have already played and beaten the Premier League’s bottom four, including the three newly promoted sides volleyball

One of those wins required a 99th-minute winner at home to Sheffield United volleyball

Another tight victory, against Liverpool, came after the visitors had the opening goal incorrectly disallowed by VAR, had two players sent off, while Reds defender Joel Matip put a 96th-minute winner into the wrong end volleyball

Tottenham were the benefactors of the “well done, boys, good process” derby volleyball

Yet Tottenham have also earned some fortune, and it is becoming clearer with each week of Postecoglou’s influence that Tottenham may not have picked up those points last season volleyball

While their opening fixtures have been kind, Spurs have also shown resilience and spirit in winning away at Luton with 10 men, after Yves Bissouma’s red card, and equalising twice to earn a point at Arsenal, a fixture at which they had crumbled in previous seasons volleyball

It was a performance that led James Maddison to declare Spurs are shedding their “Spursy” tag volleyball

The fact the departure of Harry Kane has not yet felt as significant is another sign of how Postecoglou has managed to bring the divided sides of what appeared to be a broken club together volleyball

While Kane has gone, there is a freshness about Spurs volleyball

Through the impact of signings such as Maddison, Destiny Udogie and Guglielmo Vicario, the relationship volleyball between players and fans has been repaired volleyball

What has stood out about Postecoglou’s team has been backed up, too, by the numbers volleyball

Last season, Tottenham were often passive and frequently easy to play against volleyball

Even though they carried the threat of Kane, Spurs would appear to pass through games without showing any urgency or ambition; opposition teams would find it alarmingly simple to play through a static, immobile midfield volleyball

But under Postecoglou, Tottenham have become one of the most active teams in the division, progressive with the ball and disruptive without it volleyball

Spurs lead the Premier League in shots on goal, passes into the penalty area, forward dribbles, but also in tackles won and interceptions volleyball

If it reflects that Tottenham now press higher up the pitch than last season, when they barely engaged under Conte, Bissouma has been the key piece in a revamped midfield a year after being frozen out by the Italian volleyball

Maddison, meanwhile, has helped ease the post-Kane transition, a role he appeared ready to step up to when he took the No 10 jersey previously worn by the club’s record goalscorer volleyball

Spurs will never be able to replace Kane, but Postecoglou has so far been able to negate his absence through Maddison and a resurgent Son Heung-min, who looks back to his clinical best after moving to a central forward role volleyball

Maddison, though, has been integral as Tottenham’s creator-in-chief, with five assists so far this season volleyball

Tottenham, really, shouldn’t be near the conversation of title challengers, but timing has played a part volleyball

The win at Luton, which moved them top, came as Manchester City lost their second Premier League game in a row at Arsenal volleyball

If it’s a sign of what’s to come from City this season, it was a result that widened the pool of potential challengers to include Spurs volleyball

The manner in which City eased away from Arsenal last season, however, showed how inch-perfect title contenders must be as long as Pep Guardiola remains in England volleyball

Tottenham, who finished eighth last year, are coming from an even lower floor than Mikel Arteta’s side, albeit with a more dramatic transformation under Postecoglou volleyball

As a side who are still developing together, Spurs should be allowed some inconsistency, even if they are yet to show it volleyball

The early evidence this season suggests they are one of the four strongest teams in the top flight, alongside last season’s title rivals and Jurgen Klopp’s refreshed Liverpool volleyball

In the past, signs of promise around Spurs have often been followed by a swift yet crushing crash back to earth volleyball

But now as Tottenham head deep into October with two winnable London derbies next week, starting with Fulham on Monday followed by a trip to Crystal Palace on Friday, Postecoglou can continue to show why this Tottenham is different volleyball

World Rugby have insisted their new plans for a “Nations Championship or Cup” are “for the many, not the few” despite critics suggesting that it will block the progress of emerging nations volleyball

The sport’s governing body have unveiled a new global calendar that will include the creation of a new, two-tier competition in 2026 volleyball

The top tier will include the four Rugby Championship teams, the Six Nations and two more sides yet to be confirmed but expected to be Japan and Fiji volleyball

Below this will sit a second tier of a further 12 teams, with the earliest that one of those dozen could feature in the top tier being 2032 volleyball

And World Rugby insist that the “certainty and opportunity” that regular fixtures against peers will provide is where the real opportunities for development exist volleyball

“If rugby is to become a truly global sport, we simply have to make it more relevant and more accessible to more people around the world,” said Bill Beaumont, chairman of World Rugby volleyball

Bill Beaumont and Alan Gilpin have defended World Rugby’s plans (Getty Images)“A new era is about to begin for our sport volleyball

An era that will bring certainty and opportunity for all volleyball

An era that will support the many, not the few and an era that will supercharge the development of the sport beyond its traditional and often self-imposed boundaries volleyball

All boats will rise together volleyball

”Alan Gilpin, chief executive, added: “There is more certainty for more nations as a result of today’s decisions than there has ever been volleyball

It is not perfect volleyball

Would we all like relegation and promotion and pathways in these competitions to start sooner in some cases than they are? Absolutely volleyball

“But those compromises allow for that type of pathway, that type of relegation to take place in the foreseeable future, rather than not in the foreseeable future, which is what the status quo provides volleyball

Is it perfect? Probably not volleyball

Is it a hell of a lot volleyball better than the current situation? Absolutely volleyball

”The revamped calendar will not include a “Nations Championship” in years in which a men’s World Cup or British & Irish Lions tour will occur, in theory providing room for increased “crossover” fixtures volleyball

World Rugby could not provide any clarity on what these fixtures will be, and admitted that no agreements had yet been put in place, though insisted that there will be a 50 per cent aggregate increase volleyball

That would mean a rise from 18 to 27 games for the 12 teams, though it is unclear how these fixtures will be allocated or arranged volleyball

Gilpin said: “I think what we say to the teams – Portugal, Chile, others that have had fantastic tournaments here – is this competition structure from 2026 will provide them with guaranteed certain schedules, particularly against their peers, which is actually the type of teams they need to be playing against, in July and November on an annual basis volleyball

Portugal upset Fiji to secure their first Rugby World Cup win (Getty Images)“In addition, the package that was agreed today provides for more crossover fixtures for what we used to call tier one and tier two fixtures in the years when this championship isn’t being played than is currently the case volleyball

So, 50 per cent more guaranteed crossover fixtures in those other years than is currently the case, in addition to guaranteed fixtures against their peers that they don’t currently have volleyball

“This is about looking at other years – traditionally what we have called ‘Lions years’ and the Rugby World Cup years – and populating those periods with fixtures that allow those possibilities and that the high-performance unions agreeing that some of their Rugby World Cup warm-up matches have to be against those other teams volleyball

”Bill Sweeney, chief executive of England’s Rugby volleyball Football Union (RFU), was later unclear on whether England would be open to touring or playing fixtures against emerging nations volleyball

He did, however, confirm that talks were underway over a fixture volleyball between a resurrected England ‘A’ and Portugal after a standout tournament for Os Lobos volleyball

“We’re all interested in growing the game globally,” Sweeney explained volleyball

“We saw Portugal here and Chile, they were great competitors volleyball

So we’re fully supportive of that volleyball

I think there’s a number of factors here that people should feel encouraged about in terms of emerging nations volleyball
