Tottenham Hotspur will look to get their season fully up and running after the international break.
Spurs picked up just four points from their opening three Premier League games, and the coaches and players know they could’ve easily won all three.
Tottenham host Arsenal in the North London derby on Sunday 15 September, and they’ll be eager to use that match as a springboard for the rest of the season.
Likewise, Lucas Bergvall reportedly has similar plans in store for his own career at Tottenham, as reported by GiveMeSport.

According to GiveMeSport, Bergvall plans to use the rest of September as a launchpad for his Tottenham career, with a starting spot in his sights.
The 18-year-old is ‘desperate to make an impact in his new surroundings’ after making the decision to swap Djurgarden for the Premier League.
In addition, Bergvall has reportedly been earmarked to make his debut in the EFL Cup third-round trip to Coventry City on Wednesday 18 September.
There’s also be scope for Bergvall to play a ‘key role’ when Tottenham get their Europa League campaign underway at home to Qarabag on Thursday 26 September.
The report says Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou has been left impressed by the Swede’s ‘ability and the way in which he has carried himself’.
Though Postecoglou is still eager to remain cautious over Bergvall’s game time, the expectation is that the player will soon start causing him a selection headache.

Hopefully September will prove to be a fruitful month for the Sweden international as he looks to really kick off his career at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
