The 20-year-old was a part of a dismal league campaign last season but ultimately won the Europa League at the end of it.This season, however, has been a struggle from start to finish, and it could still end with one of the worst days in Tottenham history.Gray has undoubtedly been a rare shining light throughout, though, and there remains hope that he will stay regardless of potential relegation.“He’s playing continually in the right way, in a good way,” said Tudor after Wednesday’s game.
