All right, you're very welcome along to this week's episode of Final One Standing. There's a full slate of Premier League games for us to get stuck into. We'll get Lee Feltz from William Hill online in a few minutes. In the meantime, Yves, Shane and David are here. People, you're all very welcome. What's going on? Thank you very much. All right. I think, Yves, since the last time you've been here, there's a new manager, I suppose.
There has. A lot of excitement. A lot of excitement. You could say that, you know, so many times over the past few seasons, there's been so much chopping and changing. I'm just glad it's happened before we can get relegated.
How does Igor Tudor's appointment impact Tottenham's season?
And sometimes, you know, be careful what you wish for. We've got Igor too.
Igor Tudor I knew very little about him apart from the fact that he managed a bit in Italy but he's kept a lot of teams up he's kind of a professional interim manager and he's very successful at it so I'm you know not just totally despairing and that's what this is a relegation safety appointment Yes, which is not really what I'd anticipated going into this season. I don't think any Spurs fan was, despite the 17th place finish last season, things have kind of gone off the rails very quickly.
straight to disciplinarian apparently Tudor doesn't care about you he's kind of saved like he saved Udinese twice he kind of got Juventus' season back on track when they looked like they weren't going to qualify for the Champions League and they kind of got them into the Champions League he got Marseille into Europe as well when they looked like they were kind of hitting the rail so I don't know he's a very short term appointment which I think is a good thing for Spurs in the now
You rarely see teams go for the manager with no Premier League experience for the rescue job. Usually it's the big Sam, Sean Dyche sort of hire. So you think he could be gone by the end of March? Well, it's going very badly, very quickly.
I will say when Dyche got the sack the day after, Frank, I had a moment where I thought that would be the next appointment. That would be the interim. Wow. Just because the season has been crazy already.
The dark recesses of Eve's mind come before.
What challenges do Spurs face in their upcoming matches?
It's not good up here. This season's driving me crazy. Now, I think actually it made sense to go for a non-Premier League manager just because I feel like if Tottenham had hired a big Sam or even brought back someone like a 78-year-old Harry Redknapp, you're nearly admitting that you're in this really, really dark, terrible space.
Yeah. Sometimes it's best to understand what the reality of your situation is before you can fix it. Lee Phelps is with us. Lee, good morning to you. How are you?
Yeah, I'm really good, thank you. Fascinating listening to that conversation. I'm still shaking my head that they've appointed Igor Tudor. I just can't believe it. Every time I think about it, I think, What? Where did that come from?
How do Manchester City's recent performances affect their title chances?
I mean, I get your point about the interim specialist, but he's not always been successful, by the way. And I just think what in this day and age of players who clearly they have influence. They've always had influence, of course, but what are those Spurs players thinking when this guy comes in? I'm not as confident as you guys are about him being able to just suddenly bounce into the Premier League with no Premier League experience. Multiple managers have frequently told us how it's a different challenge to any other league in the world, mainly Europe, I guess. But yeah, fascinating. But the North London derby is just set up so well, isn't it? Brilliant.
I was going to say, a nice handy start from a little off-Broadway game.
