Joao Palhinha, the midfielder for Tottenham Hotspur, has expressed confidence that his team will get back on track despite their recent poor form. The Portuguese international, who joined Spurs in June from Benfica, was speaking to BBC journalist Kelly Somers about his experiences since making the move to North London.
Palhinha acknowledges that the team's results have not been what they would have liked so far, but he remains optimistic about their chances of success this season. The 26-year-old midfielder believes that Spurs will eventually find their rhythm and get back into winning ways, which is music to the ears of fans who are growing increasingly frustrated with the team's performances.
"I think we'll get there soon," Palhinha said in an interview on BBC iPlayer. "We just need to be more consistent and make sure we're playing to our best standard." When asked about the challenges of adapting to a new league, Palhinha noted that it's not easy but also pointed out that every team goes through this phase at some point.
Palhinha's comments were seen as an attempt to reassure fans and teammates alike, who have been growing increasingly impatient with the team's performances. The midfielder's positive outlook is certainly welcome news for Spurs supporters, who are eager to see their team get back on track and compete for a top-four finish in the Premier League.
With his calm and collected demeanor, Palhinha has quickly become an integral part of Tottenham's midfield, providing a steady presence that has helped to shore up the defense. He also brings a wealth of experience from his time at Benfica, where he played an important role in leading his team to several domestic titles.
Palhinha's future with Spurs looks bright, and fans will be hoping that his confidence is contagious, helping to lift the team out of their current slump. With his positive attitude and infectious enthusiasm, Palhinha may just be the spark that Spurs need to get back on track and achieve great things this season.

I'm loving the vibe of Joao Palhinha's interview 
he seems like such a down-to-earth guy! I think it's awesome how he's trying to reassure fans and teammates with his positivity 
. As someone who loves layout and structure, I appreciate how he breaks down his thoughts into simple, easy-to-digest points 
. It's not just about being confident, but also being realistic and acknowledging the challenges ahead 
. Plus, his calm demeanor is super refreshing 
. Let's see if this confidence trickles down to the rest of the team 
! 
. It's easy to lose faith, but his words remind us that every team goes through this phase, even the best ones 
. I love how he talks about needing to be more consistent and play to their best standard – it's like he's saying, "Hey, we're not perfect, but we got this!" 
What I find really inspiring is how quickly he's become a part of the team and brought that calm presence to midfield 
!
They're going through a tough time, but Palhinha's vibes are definitely needed 
️. As an observer, it's not surprising to see top players go through an adjustment period when they join new teams - even Barcelona and Real Madrid have had their share of struggles when signing new players 
. If anyone can bring some positivity back to Spurs, it's this guy 
it's defo a sign dat they're gonna turn it around & get back 2 bein da team we know they can b 
But what's got me thinking is how these top football players have to deal with all the pressure from fans and teammates alike. I'm not saying Palhinha isn't right... he does seem pretty confident about Spurs getting back on track 
. Can you trust a player's word when they're under all that scrutiny? Maybe I'm just being paranoid 
but I think it's good to keep an eye out for any red flags 
.
️
. I mean, don't get me wrong, he seems like a cool dude and all, but Spurs have been in a rut for ages and it's not exactly easy to turn things around on a whim 
. We've seen this movie before and I'm not convinced that Palhinha's positivity will be enough to see them through 
he's literally the perfect example of a pro who knows how to handle pressure & expectations 
and let's be real, his confidence is totally contagious 
i mean, if palhinha thinks spurs can get back on track, i'm 100% believing it 
the guy knows what he's doing & has already proven himself to be an integral part of the team
