Mohammed Kudus has urged his Tottenham teammates to not get complacent after a convincing win in PL opener
Tottenham forward Mohammed Kudus was one of the standout players on the pitch against Burnley on Saturday. The Ghana international’s debut for the Lilywhites will be remembered for a long time as he grabbed two assists in his first Premier League start for the club. Not only that, but the 24-year-old was involved in all the significant attacks during the game while he was on the pitch.
Thomas Frank was hoping to kickstart a new era at N17 on a positive note. And he did just that by ensuring that the North London club outplayed Burnley in every department from minute-one. The game was controlled and Spurs looked tactically flexible, as compared to the frantic approach taken by Ange Postecoglou last season.

Tottenham managed to register an emphatic victory against Burnley as Mohammed Kudus shined on debut.
Two sublime goals from Richarlison and a delicate finish from Brennan Johnson meant that the Lilywhites started the Premier League campaign with a solid 3-0 win. But fans will also be happy to note that Spurs managed to keep a clean sheet in their first game of the season. The defence looked solid, something which was not the case last season, and everyone at the back looked assured.
Tottenham star Mohammed Kudus wants to carry the same momentum for next game
Tottenham looked solid and compact, albeit it was against a newly promoted side. Thomas Frank had promised that his team would ‘come out flying’ in their game against Burnley. And it is fair to say that the Danish tactician stayed true to his promise as the Lilywhites managed to beat Burnley fair and square.
Now, Mohammed Kudus wants his teammates to not get complacent and continue with the winning momentum. Speaking to beIN Sports (via X), Kudus said,
“It’s just the beginning. There are still a lot of good games. A lot of challenges and it is still a long season. So, it was a great start and I’m happy about the beginning. But it’s a long, long marathon to go.”

Mohammed Kudus has indicated that the game against Burnley is just the beginning of what is going to be a long Premier League season. The Ghana international believes that a lot of strong teams are left to face, and there will be times when the club will face challenges. The Spurs forward is ‘happy’ with the win, but has pointed out that this season is a ‘long marathon.’
Fans will agree with what the Spurs star has said, and it is true that the Lilywhites cannot get complacent after the first game. They take on Manchester City in the next game away from home, and there is a lot of work to be done if the Lilywhites want to take down the Premier League giants. Thomas Frank will hope that he can prepare his team in time for the challenge that lies ahead.
