We’re joined by Michael Green, an elite-level physio who’s worked in professional football across different clubs and projects, including time with the FA and supporting players through PFA rehab pathways. We get into what actually happens after a “routine knock” turns into months out, why ACL timelines are never as simple as fans want them to be, and why hamstrings are basically their own medical universe. Michael also tackles the big Spurs talking points: pitch surfaces, fixture congestion, intensity of playing style, rotation, injections and why you sometimes need weeks to know if they’ve worked. Plus, the bit nobody talks about enough: how stress, sleep and mental load can quietly push players towards injury.

We’re joined by Luca from JFTV to get the Juventus perspective on Igor Tudor and what Tottenham fans can expect over the coming months. We talk about how Tudor steadied Juve in a difficult spell, his strengths as a man manager, the tactical tweaks he tends to make, and whether he really is the right kind of character to guide Spurs through a tense run in. If you’re wondering who Tudor is and why he might work, this is a great place to start.

We’re back with Harry Brooks to talk through Tottenham’s next manager problem, and why it feels like two jobs in one: steady the ship now, then take us forward. We dig into Pochettino as the obvious unifier, Helberg as the exciting left field option, and what De Zerbi, Glasner and Iraola would actually mean in terms of style, control, chaos, and whether the club has the stomach for another intense rebuild. We also get into dressing room standards, why “environment” changes everything, and how modern football has drifted toward patterns, set pieces and safety.

We get into Romero’s Instagram post and whether “disgrace” was a translation issue or another not-so-subtle dig at the people running Spurs. From a historically dead January window to PSR reality, loan market weirdness, and why the club feels completely directionless, we ask the big one: did we actually try and fail, or just choose not to act? Plus: how much slack does Frank get when the squad is held together with tape, and does the lack of signings quietly buy him time?

We’re joined by sports psychologist Dan Abrahams to talk about what’s really happening inside a player’s head when the pressure hits. Dan explains his “ANTS” idea (automatic negative thoughts), why mistakes snowball, and how crowd emotion can seep into decision-making. We also get into “game face” as a practical tool, the difference between high and low performance mindsets, and why culture matters if you want any of this to stick. Proper fascinating, and very Spurs-relevant right now.

We stop doing the “everyone’s rubbish” routine and actually audit the squad. What’s a genuine upgrade, what’s just frustration, and who simply doesn’t fit. Vicario and the modern keeper problem, Dragusin as the obvious sale, Udogie’s injuries, Porro’s trade off, midfield balance (and the Paulinha debate), the Kulusevski and Maddison contract time bomb, and why Tel is the one attacker we’re building around. Plus, we end with the uncomfortable truth: even if you bin Richarlison and send Kolo Muani back, you still need a proper number nine, and Jon’s punt is Osimhen.

We’re back with Harry Brooks and we get stuck into Conor Gallagher to Spurs, why he’s basically plug and play, and why managers love him. We talk about what he actually gives Spurs off the ball, how he can become the press trigger we’ve been missing, and why his engine and discipline make him such a reliable week to week performer. There’s also a bit on Valiz likely heading back to Brazil, a quick Souza check in, and the bigger question of squad balance and what this means for Sarr, Gray and Bergvall. Plus, yes, Villa fans catching strays after Gallagher picks Spurs.

“Brazilian fans are brutal… the training ground is being invaded… any kind of malcontent he will see in N17, he’s already been through it all in Santos.”

We sit down with The Athletic's Dan Kilpatrick to talk about the weird new Spurs emotion: numbness. Dan explains how a decade in the press box switched off the “fan brain”, why he’s now trying to work out what kind of supporter he even wants to be, and why watching Spurs can feel like booking time off just to be annoyed. From Romero’s captaincy posts and the club’s outside image, to Frank’s grip on the squad, the lack of leadership, and the muddled structure behind the scenes, it’s a proper zoomed out look at a club that feels riddled with
