Tottenham return to action against Aston Villa on October 19 once this round of international fixtures ends, with Thomas Frank looking to build upon an unbeaten run which has stretched their last seven games in all competitions.
Spurs were forced to dig deep in their last outing at Elland Road, securing a 2-1 win over newly-promoted Leeds United and ending the Yorkshire side's year-long unbeaten run at home in the league.
Player of the match, Mohammed Kudus, was once again a nightmare to deal with in the wide area and looks like the Lilywhites' best summer signing thus far alongside Bayern Munich loanee Joao Palhinha.
Mathys Tel also staked his claim for a starting nod over fellow striker Richarlison, and he rewarded Frank's faith with their opening goal as Dominic Solanke continues to work his way back from minor ankle surgery.
Despite concerns surrounding some of Tottenham's performances against lesser sides, with the North Londoners stealing draws in dramatic fashion against the likes of Brighton, Wolves and Bodo/Glimt, it has been a very solid start to life for Frank overall.
It is a far cry from the defensive frailties which haunted Ange Postecoglou's version of Tottenham last season, with Frank's new-look side displaying a real grit and resilience to see out needed results.
"Yes, of course I am," Frank said, when asked if he is happy about Spurs' start to 2025/2026.
"I think 14 points in seven is two on average. That's very good. That overall start I'm happy with. I'm extremely happy that we now on the road have won three and a draw, which is part of that — if you want to achieve anything, you need to do that. So, overall start, a good start, but we need to continue, of course."
Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero have been vital to Tottenham's solidarity, with pundit Jamie O'Hara even suggesting that they're the best centre-back partnership in the world right now.
"When you actually look at Spurs' side right now, it's a strong team, mate," O'Hara said on talkSPORT.
"Van de ven is top drawer, he is top drawer, he walks into Real Madrid's team, Romero, walks into Real Madrid's team, both of them play for Real Madrid.
"Name better centre-halves than them as a partnership."
Spurs' full-back options have also impressed for the most part, and ex-defender Sergio Reguilon would've certainly struggled to battle his way back into the team.
The Spaniard is now a free agent after being forced to leave the club when his contract expired in July, but according to reports, he's now closing in on a free transfer to the MLS.
Sergio Reguilon in advanced talks to join Inter Miami after Tottenham exit
According to ESPN and other reliable media sources, Reguilon is in advanced talks to join Inter Miami as he finalises a switch to David Beckham's MLS franchise.
The 28-year-old did attract rumoured interest from West Ham and Everton, but it is Javier Mascherano's side that have won the race to snap up the ex-Real Madrid starlet at zero cost.
Reguilon's five-year stint at Tottenham was a mixed bag, with the former Sevilla man spending time out on loan at Brentford and Man United during his time there.
Postecoglou could barely find a place for Reguilon, despite the odd appearance during Tottenham's injury crisis last season, and he was still allowed to leave on a free soon after Frank's appointment in June.
Interestingly, Tottenham's new boss briefly worked with him at the Gtech Community Stadium and actually praised Reguilon after he put pen to paper on a move there — calling him a "proven" Premier League player and a "perfect fit" for his former side.
