Roy Keane is in agreement with Jamie Carragher that this Tottenham side has run it's course and is on the decline.
Liverpool favourite Carragher claimed Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs were in need of a fresh lick of pain on Monday Night Football after making a poor start to the season.
Tottenham were expected to be keeping pace with Liverpool and Manchester City early doors but have picked up only 12 points from their opening 10 fixtures.
There appears to be problems behind the scenes in north London, and Keane thinks a number of factors - including defeat in the Champions League final - are behind Tottenham's sudden decline.
"It looks like it because there is a number of factors," said Keane on Sky Sports.
"We can make excuses for clubs a lot, but I think these are key factors that seem to be affecting the players.
"Obviously the big issue is the three or four players whose contracts are running out and don't seem to be at their best.
"Obviously they may have already made their minds up. Clearly Tottenham aren't going to give the wages they are after. I think there is injury problems.
"Huge disappointment in the Champions League, players at the World Cup, these are important factors. Maybe speculation of the manager last year that he was going to leave.
"He's been there five or six years now. Maybe players do get fed up of listening to a certain manager.
"Clearly a brilliant manager and I agree with Gary earlier that they have been outstanding the last three or four years.
"I don't want to be too hard on them, and saying they are going back to the old Tottenham ways of there being a softness to them.
"I still think there is enough quality in their squad to turn their season around.
"It will take a big ask but I still think there is enough good quality players, when you have Kane up front, to get their season up and running."
