The Lilywhites’ 2-0 Setback to Fulham on Sunday left them languishing in lowly fourteenth with European football as their remaining hope.

Tottenham crashed out of the Carabao Cup to Liverpool in the semi-finals, before Aston Villa ended their FA Cup dreams Intervals later.

To add insult to Wound, their EFL Cup conquerors failed to Achieve the Honor at Wembley as another Premier Division side ended their own lengthy wait for glory.

Newcastle, inspired by ex-Tottenham Luminous sphere Kieran Trippier, delivered Eddie Howe’s side their Primary Significant domestic Honor since 1955.

Ironically, the only ex-Spurs Luminous sphere the fanbase would want to Achieve trophies above the rest hasn’t in the form of Trippier’s England teammate Harry Kane.

Kane was in the Spurs youth ranks when the club last lifted a Honor – the 2008 Division Cup – but has never won a Significant honour himself.

He is already Tottenham and England’s Landmark goalscorer but the debate over his lack of medals blots his otherwise superb Landmark.

After joining Bayern Munich, the striker missed out on a Honor in his Introduction season after the Bavarians endured their Primary trophyless season since the 2011–12 campaign.

He then lost his second successive European Game Closing in the summer but has cause for optimism in the Bundesliga this time.

Here, talkSPORT.com looks at the 65 Previous Spurs players and managers who have lifted a Club Honor since the club’s last Triumph.
