The 2007–08 season was Tottenham Hotspur 16th season in the Premier League, their 29th successive season in the top division of the English football league system and the 125th year of their history.

Spurs finished 5th in the 2006–07 season, thereby qualifying for the UEFA Cup. They then progressed to the last 16 of the competition to face PSV Eindhoven. After the two rounds and one away goal each, Spurs were finally eliminated 6–5 on penalties.[3]

In the FA Cup Spurs were eliminated by Manchester United in the fourth round losing 3–1.[4] This was also the season where Tottenham won the League Cup beating Chelsea 2–1 at Wembley.[5]

Pre-season and friendlies

During the 2007 summer transfer period Tottenham added to their squad with recruits Younes Kaboul from AJ Auxerre for £8 million and then record signing Darren Bent at £16.5 million.[6][7] This was also the season that Spurs acquired Gareth Bale from Southampton for £5 million.[8] Additional signings were Danny Rose from Leeds and Kevin-Prince Boateng from Hertha Berlin.[9][10]

On the way out of the club was Eygptian footballer Mido. He arrived on an 18-month loan deal from Roma in January 2005 and in 2006 signed a permanent deal. Then on 16 August 2007, he was sold to Middlesbrough for £6 million.[11] Also leaving the club was Reto Ziegler who was loaned out to Sampdoria in Italy for the second half of the 2006–07 season. Sampdoria then decided to sign him permanently from Spurs for an undisclosed fee.[12]

2007–08 Season

Tottenham started off their Premier League campaign away at newly promoted Sunderland with a 1–0 loss.[13] Three days later they travelled to Everton losing 3–1, then at White Hart Lane Spurs recorded their first win - 4–0 against Derby County. After that game Martin Jol and Tottenham recorded four draws and three defeats in the Premier League, which included a 3–3 draw away to Fulham and a 4–4 draw against Aston Villa. In the UEFA Cup first round Spurs won 6–1 against the Cypriot team Anorthosis Famagusta, then followed up with a 1–1 draw back in Cyprus.[14] Jol's final league game was on 22 October, Spurs were away at Newcastle United and they lost 3–1. Then on 25 October Spurs were home in Europe against Getafe in the UEFA Cup and lost 2–1. When the game was finished it was announced that Jol had been sacked as Manager.[1]

After one match with Clive Allen and Alex Inglethorpe in charge, Juande Ramos was employed as Tottenham manager having managed successfully at Sevilla. Alongside Ramos, Gus Poyet was handed the assistant head coach role. Marcos Alvarez who worked alongside Ramos at Sevilla joined the backroom staff as fitness coach.[2] Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy was widely criticised for his treatment of Martin Jol following revelations that Juande Ramos was approached to replace Jol during the summer, which many thought undermined his leadership and ruined his credibility as an authoritative figure.[15]

Ramos' reign began with a 2–0 win over Blackpool in the League Cup.[16] Immediately following Ramos's appointment it was made clear in the public forum that he was very unhappy with the fitness and weight of the team and instigated a new diet and fitness regime.[17] Tottenham's league form began to improve and Tottenham's progress in the League Cup began with a 2–0 win over Manchester City which ended City's unbeaten home record.[18]

On 27 January 2008 Spurs went out of the FA Cup fourth round to a 3–1 defeat at the hands of Manchester United at Old Trafford. Tottenham took the lead through Robbie Keane but eventually lost to United to a goal from Carlos Tevez and two goals from Cristiano Ronaldo one of which was a penalty where Michael Dawson was sent off for a deliberate handball.[4]

Tottenham's run in the League Cup continued with a semi-final first leg 1–1 draw against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.[19] Followed by a 5–1 win over Arsenal at White Hart Lane, winning 6–2 on aggregate.[20] This booked a place in the final against Chelsea. Tottenham went on to win the match 2-1 thanks to a Jonathan Woodgate header in extra time securing Tottenham's first trophy since 1999.[5] It also guaranteed them UEFA Cup qualification for the third season running.

On 13 March, Tottenham were eliminated from the UEFA Cup in the last 16 round by PSV Eindhoven. The first leg played at White Hart Lane was a 1–0 defeat for Spurs following a mistake from Gilberto.[21] Dimitar Berbatov scored in the second leg played at the Philips Stadion, to take the game to extra time and penalties where Tottenham lost 6–5 when Pascal Chimbonda missed during sudden death.[3]

On 22 March, Spurs played Portmouth winning 2–0. Darren Bent struck the 100th goal of the 2007–08 season campaign. Jamie O'Hara followed two minutes later with the 101st. BBC sport writer Ian Hughes noted that Tottenham have " an average of 3.63 goals in every Spurs game this season".[22]

After earning a point on 19 April in a 1–1 draw against Wigan, Tottenham made themselves mathematically safe from relegation with at least 42 points.[23] Berbatov's sixth-minute strike was Tottenham's 100th in all competitions that season, 64 in the Premier League and 36 in cup competitions.[24] The season ended on 11 May 2008 with a 2–0 home defeat to Liverpool.[25]
