Back to back Saturday defeats against Newcastle United and Liverpool contrasted with a good win against Aston Villa at White Hart Lane and a deserved point at Portsmouth on Monday.
Spurs boss Martin Jol said: "I was not satisfied with our return over the Christmas period, but not too disappointed either. Our results and performances could have been worse, but they could have been better too.
"It was a busy period for us and that was something that made it really satisfying. Aston Villa was good on Boxing Day but I still think we should have picked up three points at Portsmouth although it was our 10th game in 30 days."
