Following two demanding seasons for Tottenham Hotspur, can Roberto De Zerbi’s summer recruitment help rebuild the team? Former Spurs winger Andros Townsend, former Spurs fullback Chris Hughton and supporter Flav Bateman join Aaron Paul to assess the club’s prospects ahead of the 2026/27 Premier League campaign. They examine the manager’s background and leadership qualities, asking whether he can help restore Tottenham’s fortunes. Tactics correspondent Umir Irfan looks at De Zerbi’s footballing philosophy. The panel also evaluates the club’s transfer activity, including how Sandro Tonali and Matheus Fernandes could be integrated into the squad, while football finance specialist Kieran Maguire discusses Tottenham’s spending position this summer. Finally, they consider whether a season without European competition could work in the club’s favour after last year’s injury problems, as De Zerbi attempts to guide Tottenham back to better form.
