Lucas Bergvall's return from injury is anticipated soon, with potential minutes off the bench against Leeds United or a start after the international break, according to Hotspur HQ. Bergvall has been stellar since his initial start, and his return will add depth to Tottenham's midfield. The young players, including Archie Gray, have shone in limited starts. Bergvall's capabilities complement those of Gray.
Tottenham's defensive midfield pairing of Mateus Fernandes and Sandro Tonali is considered one of the best in world football, having dominated in recent matches against Chelsea and Crystal Palace. Their 185 million pound price tags reflect their status as the clear starting duo. However, having a strong B Team is crucial for Tottenham's aspirations.
Archie Gray and Lucas Bergvall form an ideal B Team, with Gray capable of playing Tonali's role and Bergvall mirroring Fernandes' strengths in winning the ball. While they may not match the technical or creative abilities of the starting duo, they possess key qualities that can maintain momentum. Hotspur HQ notes that Gray and Bergvall can effectively replace Tonali or Fernandes if needed.

Source context
Tottenham Hotspur center midfielder Lucas Bergvall is currently out injured, but his return should be on the horizon. He could either get some minutes off the bench against Leeds United this weekend as a tune up, or he could return for some starts after the November international break. Bergvall and fellow young gun Archie Gray haven't gotten many starts in the midfield this season, but when they have played there, they have shined. The Swedish international has been stellar since a terrible Matchday 1 surprise start against Brentford when Spurs lost 3-0, while Gray has mostly started at right back, slowly turning up the heat to the point where he has been more than just an emergency right back option for star man Pedro Porro.
