Tottenham - Home and Away

Tottenham - Home and Away episode 95


Listen Later

Spurs showed signs of life against Brighton — but another late goal conceded left us with that familiar gut-punch feeling.

In Episode 95 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the 2-2 draw with Brighton, ask whether Xavi Simons has finally arrived in a Spurs shirt, and debate whether Roberto De Zerbi is the right manager at the wrong time.

We also preview the huge away match against Wolves. With five games left, Spurs badly need points, performances are no longer enough, and the relegation fight is very real. Can we finally end the winless run? Does De Zerbi stick with the Brighton team? Should Bergvall start? And is Wolves now simply a must-win?

We also discuss the wider survival picture, West Ham, Chelsea, Villa, Everton, the leadership issues in the squad, Cristian Romero, online abuse aimed at Kevin Danso, and the possible arrival of Sebastian Kehl as sporting director.
