BBC football pundit Mark Lawrenson had predicted that Spurs would draw with Everton on Saturday – before it was postponed.
He told BBC Sport Online: “It looks as if Tottenham might be busy in the transfer market in the next couple of weeks but we don’t know at the moment whether they are going to go for it by spending a lot money, or if they will try to balance the books.
“If I were Spurs, I would consider selling Luka Modric because with £30m and maybe a player heading the other way from Chelsea that looks a good deal, especially if Modric doesn’t want to play for them anymore.
“Everton have not bought or sold anyone this summer which has been a bit disappointing for their supporters but there are no new faces to bed in and we can expect more of the same from them this season, which is for their manager David Moyes to make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.
“Prediction: 1-1.”
