After a tough couple of seasons at Tottenham Hotspur, can Roberto De Zerbi’s summer rebuild spark a turnaround? Host Aaron Paul is joined by former Spurs winger Andros Townsend, former full-back Chris Hughton, and fan Flav Bateman to assess Tottenham’s prospects for the 2026/27 Premier League campaign. They examine De Zerbi’s personality and whether he has the presence to shift the club’s fortunes, with BBC Sport tactics correspondent Umir Irfan breaking down his style of play. The panel reviews the transfer window and how new arrivals Sandro Tonali and Matheus Fernandes could fit in, while football finance expert Kieran Maguire outlines the club’s summer spending. Finally, they consider whether a season without European football might help, especially after last year’s injury woes.
