"We need to start winning games so that there isn't a gap where you need to win two or three games just to have a chance," Bent said.

"We've got a difficult game against Stoke but if we prepare like we know we can do, and play like we did against Hull in periods, we know we can beat anyone."

Bent is confident Spurs can climb out of trouble and feels everybody at the club is pulling in the same direction.

"Everyone is still upbeat," he added. "There are things going around that there is unrest in the dressing room but everyone is behind the manager and each other.

"I'm sure we'll be okay and we'll put it right sooner or later.
