Tottenham didn't win if Bethany England didn't score last season, but that they've eased their reliance on the Lionesses' striker's goals now is reason to be excited about Spurs' future under Robert Vilahamn

Last season, Spurs didn’t win if the striker didn’t score, but that they’ve eased their reliance on her goals is reason to be excited for the future

This time last year, Tottenham were still at risk of being relegated from the Women's Super League. A dreadful run of nine successive league defeats saw head coach Rehanne Skinner dismissed in mid-March, and it wasn't until the penultimate weekend of the season that safety was secured, thanks to a star performance from Bethany England at home to eventually-relegated Reading.

Last term, the Lionesses striker scored a remarkable 12 goals in 12 WSL games to fire Spurs away from danger, with it difficult to see how they would've stayed in the division without her contributions in attack. Such form even saw her snatch a place in England's Women's World Cup squad at the last minute, having not been called up for eight months, many worried for Tottenham. That Spurs failed to score a single goal in pre-season while she began her time on the sidelines only meant those fears grew.
