Tottenham - Home and Away

Tottenham - Home and Away Episode 98


Listen Later

Spurs have won back-to-back league games. Yes, really.

In this episode of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the huge away win at Aston Villa and ask whether Roberto De Zerbi has finally found the missing belief in this Tottenham squad.

We discuss a performance that felt better than the 2-1 scoreline, the intensity from the first whistle, the impact of Conor Gallagher, João Palhinha, Pedro Porro, Richarlison, Kolo Muani and Mathys Tel, and why De Zerbi’s “no more pity party” mentality may be exactly what these players needed.

We also preview Monday night’s home match against Leeds. Can Spurs carry the same intensity into a game where expectation will be higher? Will the home crowd help or add pressure? Should Kinsky keep his place? Could Maddison get minutes? And can Spurs take another huge step towards Premier League survival?

There’s also chat about Archie Gray’s future role, Spurs’ transfer needs, Johan Lange, Sebastian Kehl, possible summer targets, West Ham, Arsenal, Chelsea, the Australia pre-season tour, Spurs youngsters, and a World Cup rant for good measure.
