Tottenham Hotspur secured a narrow first-leg victory against Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Alan Sugar has hit out at Rio Ferdinand on Twitter for being ‘negative’ about Tottenham and ‘singing the old song’ that they have to spend money in the transfer market.

During the last two transfer windows, Spurs have opted against signing any players as they also recently moved into their new stadium.

Here is Alan Sugar sending a message to former Manchester United defender Ferdinand on his personal Twitter account:

Many pundits and supporters have pointed out that in order for the North London club to take the next step they must dip their hands into their pockets and sign new players.

Moving into their new stadium will help and winning their opening two games will also serve as a boost to the supporters.

On Tuesday night, they beat Manchester City 1-0 in the first leg of their Champions League tie with Heung-Min Son netting the only goal of the game.

The South Korea international has already written his name in the history books because he officially scored the first goal in Tottenham’s new stadium when they beat Crystal Palace 2-0 in the Premier League last Wednesday.

Now, he will be looking to score in his third consecutive home game when Pochettino’s side host already-relegated Huddersfield Town at the weekend as they bid to maintain their status in the Champions League places.
