Lose for one to Arsenal when Eze scores the hat-trick.
And then they were 2-0 down after five minutes against Fulham.
So they just never recovered from that point.
The last...
moment of the season where maybe there was some semblance of happiness in the Spurs world was maybe that October game at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.
They don't need to win, though, on Sunday, particularly... But De Zerbi was asked about this on Monday, and he said...
I don't want anybody to think a draw is fine.
We have to go in with the mentality of... Right.
I should.
I should add, because I was talking to our colleague Jack Pitbrook about this the other day, but Spurs' biggest problem at this point in time, there are many, is that injuries just mean the complete lack of attacking depth means that Deserby has to rely on Randall Colomwani, who is woefully out of form, has been all season.
Richarlison, who gets scrappy goals, but the rest of his play is maybe lacking and doesn't help Spurs control games.
The most frustrating player, I think, the other night and probably the game before as well, no?
I think you could argue that.
It's just sometimes his touch is very heavy and it sort of slows moves down or he makes the wrong pass.
And then finally, you've got, you know, 21-year-old Matisse Tell, who is very up and down, but does try to make things happen.
And...
I was at Stamford Bridge and after the game, Callum McFarlane said he knew that in the final 20 minutes, Spurs would sort of kick on a little bit more because of the tight turnaround between the FA Cup final, because of the desperation of the situation Spurs are in.
But the three changes that the Zerbi made were Pape Sarr, who's barely played this season and I think tailed off quite significantly in the last 12 months or so.
Jed Spence replaced Destinia Doggett, left back, and James Madison.
Now, undoubtedly, Madison lifts the fan base.
