We were teased with Harry, weren't we?

We were also teased with Tim Sherwood and other people affiliated to Spurs.

Why didn't they get the job?

I think that was really heartening, to be honest with you.

It just shows the love...

certain individuals have still got for the football club that they would do that.

But I think, ultimately, that Roberto de Serbi was the number one choice.

They've got their number one choice.

He was the number one choice when Thomas Frank was dismissed in February.

But people keep asking, why didn't they do it in February?

Roberto de Serbi had just left Marseille.

He wanted to take some time off.

Now, the information we had at the time was that time off would be until the summer.

But then when you get off the Tottenham job again...

Tottenham Hotspur have always attracted top players.

They've always attracted big-name managers.

Jose Mourinho, Antonio Conte.

And I'm sure when Igor Tudor got the call, he thought, goodness me, Tottenham.

Then you go into it, wow, I've got a problem here.

And I'm sure Roberto Di Zerbi is going to see that with the injuries he's got and the squad he's going to inherit.
