Manager Igor Tudor

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I agree. And it feels like the Summer is the moment to find out if it was right to go back. On the plus side, a big part of the fan base will feel there's someone back in the seat that loves the Club and the fans again. And we desperately need to feel a connection with the Club again.

Mind you, what happens if Igor comes in and surprises us all with more wins than even we hope for? The Club has a decision to make then.
Tudor on a permanent deal is always a trap. Doesn't matter how well he does well shouldn't even consider it.

Hopefully we do well enough under him for that to even be a consideration though.
 
Been a while since a Tudor last crossed the channel and took a big seat in London. Let's see how that works out for him
 
Fingers crossed, we'll have these lads back in the coming games:

Porro, Richy -> Fulham (game after Scum)
Udogie -> Liverpool (4 games from now)
Romero -> Forest (game after Liverpool)
Kudus -> Sunderland (game after Forest, but there are Champions League matches in between).

Which means that we'll have most of these players (barring any setbacks, which is almost a certainty with our medical staff) for this final run of fixtures:

Brighton (H)
Wolves (A)
Villa (A)
Leeds (H)
Chelsea (A)
Everton (H)
I believe Romero will be back for Liverpool.

4 game suspension and Newcastle was the first one.
 

Me too... I'm warming to this fella... I think Conte has had a big influence on him but I liked the bits in this article about
- he wants his team to dictate the tempo and he wants it to be fast
- very fluid 3-4-2-1 or 3-5-2
- man orientated high energy press to force opposition to funnel ball wide where you can create quick turnovers and instant overloads
- bit fiesty
- good attacking stats with Marseille only bettered by PSG but not in all catagories

It's a good read and like I said... I'm gonna get behind him and who knows...
 
Oh right sorry. I guess everything will definitely work out this time.
This is one of the most stupid things you could have said, I mean, how fucking childish do you want to get?

It's not about if you think it will work out this time or not, no one knows the answer to that We'll just have to wait and see.

It's the fucking brain dead comparison to the Stellini situation that is insanely way off the mark.

If your going to make a comparison, at make it within same realm of reality, rather than just insane nonsensical random bs.
 
Yeah I agree. Dragusin always looks like a liability to me in a back 2 but has done well in a back 3 for Genoa and Romania and I think it suits Romero and VdV quite nicely too.

Also think playing a bit more centrally suits players like Tel, Xavi, RKM rather than shunting them right out on the wing as we often saw under Frank.

Hopefully Porro's back soon. Also suits him ofc.

Can play Souza as well. In a back 4 he is the left defender, as a wing back however he will have VDV covering that side. So 3 CB’s rather than 2 CB’s will give Souza less responsibility.
 
Lets be honest if Forest had announced Tudor yesterday or West Ham if they'd sacked Nuno a few weeks back we'd hardly be shitting ourselves. I just think the same coaching staff, a transient figurehead and 11 fit players is not going to end well. We needed a lift, get the fans back onside and dont think we've done that.
