Former Tottenham fullback Pascal Chimbonda believes his old club can challenge for the league.
Spurs are battling with Aston Villa to finish 4th in the league this term in boss Ange Postecoglou's first in charge.
Chimbonda, who is impressed by how Spurs play under Postecoglou, said they have to make some changes to go up a level.
He stated at Ladbrokes Fanzone's North London Derby mural: "I think if I was to sum up Tottenham's season so far in one word, I'd have to say 'inconsistent'. We started really bright, you know, and have played some really nice football, but our squad isn't as big as Man City's, or Arsenal's, or Liverpool's, and that's why I think we ran out of gas in the middle of the season.
“I know we score a lot, but we concede too many goals, and that's ultimately what's cost us at times. We need to find some consistency moving forward.
On the new manager, he added: "You can't really ask for much more from Ange Postecoglou, considering it's his first season in charge. He came to the club and brought a new ID with him, which people have enjoyed. We're challenging for fourth place in the table and you'd have to say that would be considered a successful first season in charge.
"I love his honesty. I love that he speaks the truth. When he has to say something, he says it. He's a calm guy and I think the most important thing is that the players like him and believe in his ID. You can see they want to win for him, and that's a special position to be in."
