What does the show introduction and technical issues cover?
Hi guys, welcome to Talking Tottenham 1882. Sorry about the delay. I had a bit of a technical problem where I couldn't hear myself and I couldn't hear my guests. Guys, if you're here for the first time, please hit the like and the subscribe button. And uh if you're uh if you're looking for a jersey, don't forget our sponsor, OKJersey, and don't forget to use that code T. TT TT 10. Tonight got a great uh great show on for tonight. And uh obviously you know who I am. We've got Ricky, obviously from Last Word of Spurs, needs no introduction.
Ricky, how are you, mate? I'm good, thank you, mate. I think like all of us we're waiting for this striker to come along. We've got an echo, less open strikers following.
Yeah, well the echo's probably me, so I'll have to uh I'll have to mute myself. Uh Billy, no needs no intro t introduction. How
you doing tonight, Bill? Yeah, getting the same mate, the same. Um itching for this attacking players, but uh pleased with the cup draw, mate. We actually got a good cup draw for once, so I'll take that. I haven't actually seen the cup drawer because I was too busy trying to work out. I wanna know.
Charlton at home, there you go. Charlton at home.
And it gone the other way, that cut through all. Chelsea we were the last four balls left for Chelsea and we got Charlton's uh Could you imagine if we'd have got Chelsea and we'd have been able to put it? It's fifty fifty, fifty fifty.
Um and uh guest first time out tonight, um Darren Rockman, former non executive director of Tottenham Hodgeburgh. How you doing tonight, Darren?
I'm very well. How are you guys? I'm looking forward to Lab Bomba this week.
La bomba. I thought it was a Ricky Martin song. I thought it was a Ricky Martin song. I don't know or two. I'll too. Listen, look, guys, um I'm not tonight, I'm not I'm not really interested in pretending everything is fine because the window's still open. Because if we look at Tottenham's attack right now. It's it's a it's a shambles, right? It's an absolute flooding shambles. I mean, if we look at that, um if we look at the chart here and we look at here. I mean we've got Kudos out injured. We got Madison out injured. We got Kulisewski, no return date. Xavi Simmons out for a long term. Uh Solomon sold And on top of that we got Dominic Solanke, who's always injured, could be a sore throat, could be gum bleed, anything uh anything really could keep him out of the game.
But We can't we can't really go into this season. trying to put all our eggs into Matthias Tell and Rich Allison and asking them to suddenly become the players to carry our attack. Yeah, we can't say like if Kurus is ready, if Kilosevski comes back quickly, if Madison manages to stay fit. If Tel kicks on or if another s uh attacker arrives, elite squads are not bloody built on ifs. Are they? I mean let's be honest. So who's left? Because we spent all the summer talking about the good things, right, uh happening at Tottenham. Roberto de Zerbi. The new signings in defence, we know who they are in midfield. ENIC 2.0 we'll talk about them in a minute. Ambition and of course that word what you mentioned before, bomber.
But we're getting closer to the start of this season right now and I'm looking for attacking options. And De Zerby to me looks desperately short. And I I got to be I gotta be telling you, I'm worried that Roberta de Zerby is sat there and is not at all Happy. Uh Ricky, what what are your thoughts on what might be
going through his head right now?
How does the discussion shift to the cup draw and early‑season outlook?
Well, I think he's made it clear, hasn't he, the fact that he feels that sixty percent of the work is done and there's still forty percent of it remaining. I think From what we've heard from him that, you know, he expects there to be At least two to three forwards coming in, he said that himself publicly. So There's work to do. I think that in an ideal world, Tottenham would have hopefully had the attackers in by now. To give deserve the time to work with them, of course, before the start of the season. I think we made this point also on last one Spurs. We've been slightly concerned about our pre season as to whether
