It was a big call to replace Tudor with a long-term manager.
Potentially, you're appointing Roberto de Zerbi on Premier League wages and paying him in the Championship if it goes wrong.
But to be honest, from the evidence of Wolves,
last week or the week before, and then yesterday, it looks like it's worked.
For the first time in a long time, Spurs look like a team with a clear identity, I think.
I think Ben Central coming back has been fantastic.
Bigger than maybe people realise.
That has been the theme throughout for Spurs, that the performance have been poor, the managers have been bad until Deserby.
They've made all these terrible decisions, but they have constantly had 11 players out injured, which I'm pretty sure doesn't help.
Charlie, to you, does it look like a tactical shift from Deserby or is it a mentality shift?
Or is it that they've got a clear tactical identity, which means they have the confidence in themselves?
Yeah, someone's going down with a lot of points.
That's the reality of it.
The last two seasons, I think the bottom three didn't crack 30.
And we talked a lot about the idea that the promoted teams were such a massive financial disadvantage, they wouldn't be able to compete.
And there were basically now 17 Premier League teams and three guest teams who would appear every season.
Leeds and Sunderland have kind of disproven that.
That might be a blip.
It might be an anomaly.
The same thing might happen next year, whether it's Coventry, Ipswich and Millwall or Borough or Southampton or whoever.
