    Interim Manager Discussion - Igor Tudor joined until end of season

    "Sprint a lot". That worked well for Ange's first ten games, so maybe that's what we aim to replicate. We had 26 points after 12 games, which should put us at a respectable 55 points and a comfortable midtable finish.

    Our signings since the Champions League final

    I think all three kids were good buys, but imagine the statement if we bought the other four as well. That would've been proper stregthening of the squad right now, allowing the kids more time to develop as understudies.

    Could work as critisism towards our owners too

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    I think it's foolish to disregard it completely, and I certainly hope the club doesn't. I've tried to read up, and found research that indicates that high training volume and insufficient recovery, combined with hard surfaces, can increase the risk of ACL injuries. The hardness of the pitch...

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    The medical team is the other factor that could have had an impact on us having more ACL injuries than all the other PL teams combined, I guess. My uninformed guess is it's because of a combination of inept medical staff, hard pitches, an intense playing style (last two seasons) and a...

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    Was he swiftly and immediately sent off by a referee determined to uphold the laws of the game and wanting to contribute to consistent refereeing in the PL? Asking for a friend.

    Thomas Frank - Former Head Coach

    No one in their right mind would quit at that moment, knowing the sack and a hefty pay off was just around the corner.

    Wilson Odobert

    Yeah, but if Spurs women also suffer many more ACL injuries than other top flight women's teams, then it's absolutely relevant.

    Wilson Odobert

    Five in three years. All other PL clubs have had a combined four ACL tears in the same period. Edit: I think our women's team also had three ACL injuries last year.

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    I think it's really interesting the way he talks about the "S pursy" tag being an issue within the club, adding to the mentality holding us back.

    Our signings since the Champions League final

    Lots of potential, lots of deadwood and a few 6-8s. Kulu (before his injury), Bentancour (before his injury), Udogie (when he's not injured), Perisic (before his injury), Maddison (before his injuries), VDV and probably Solanke (before his injury). Porro too was good for us when we were on the...

    Interim Manager Discussion - Igor Tudor joined until end of season

    Redknapp will be 79 in three weeks, and apart from a stint in the fourth tier of the Swansea Senior league, he hasn’t worked as a manager since 2017. He's not the man for us.

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    Opposition players spend 90 minutes on that surface, though - ours train and play there regularly. It's the only correlation I can think of. The number of ACL injuries we suffer, compared to everyone else, is such an anamoly there has to be an underlying factor. Not to mention all the other...

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    Three out of five at ours - we have the same surface on our training ground as our pitch, don’t we? Prolonged exposure to hard playing surfaces is a risk factor for ACL injuries, especially in combination with high intensity playing/training and insufficient recovery time, so I wouldn't dismiss...

    Interim Manager Discussion - Igor Tudor joined until end of season

    Yeah, the dark forces are too strong for the new manager bounce to even give us a hard fought draw.

    Interim Manager Discussion - Igor Tudor joined until end of season

    Could he get away with stepping on Gabriel's hand as a manager?

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    In that case, you'd imagine there would be many more ACL injuries in other teams as well. What's very suspicious is that we have more of these injuries than the entire rest of the PL.

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    I think only Odobert and Dragusin was at home. Perisic in training. Bentancour at Leicester and Maddison in a pre season gane somewhere.

    25/26 Injury and illness thread

    Perisic, Bentancour, Maddison, Dragusin and now Odobert. Five ACL tears in three years. That's one more than all other PL clubs combined during the same period. No way is this coincidental.

    I don't care who it is, as long as we get an instant new manager bounce.
