The View From The Lane: The Athletic FC's Tottenham show

Host Danny Kelly is joined by The Athletic's Charlie Eccleshare & special guest - ESPN's Brazilian football journalist Natalie Gedra - to reflect on a very special night for Richarlison as Spurs struggled to a 2-0 win on Matchday 1 in the Champions League...

Natalie gives us the inside story on what Spurs' Brazilian contingent are really like, Richarlison's budding bromance with Neymar, Emerson's fear of 5-at-the-back, why Moura hates his 'impact substitute' tag and even attempts to explain why the likes of Paulinho and Gilberto never quite lived up to their billing in North London.

Plus, more on Conte's unique football philosophy and why the first half against Marseille last night was perfect preparation for the trip to Manchester City this weekend!
