@_Equinoux_ @SpursJourno They do now. Thanks to him largely. They were very young players with us. He did not sign any of those players. He improves them all hugely. Hence they got the big moves. The only reason we did not finish top 4 that seasonwas because they were young and inexperienced.

@Col46580873 @SpursJourno Half his team play for elite level clubs now, cucurella Sanchez colwill macallister caicedo Pedro, with other good players filling in the holes easily was a top 10 side in the league

I understand literally every other criticism of De Zerbi but are we seriously meant to pretend he was a bad manager in the premier league?

@_Equinoux_ @SpursJourno It really wasn’t. We massively over performed with the squad we had. To suggest otherwise is nonsense.

@Col46580873 @SpursJourno Why was he only winning below 40% of his games if teams had no idea what to do against you, considering the squad you had at the time was easily better than over half the teams in the league

@thfc_T_news 😂😂 one of the reasons he left is he was not allowed his players. Only Dahoud, Fati and Igor were RDZ initiated or requested. RDZ is way better at improving players rather than signing them

🚨⚪️: Roberto de Zerbi Spent a total of £95m on these 9 players. Elite talent ID. - Joao Pedro 🇧🇷/ £30m - Carlos Baleba 🇨🇲/ £23m - Bart Verbruggen 🇳🇱/ £16m - Igor Julio 🇧🇷/ £14m - Valentin Barco 🇦🇷/ £7-9m - James Milner🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿/ Free - Mahmoud Dahoud 🇩🇪/ Free - Ansu Fati 🇪🇸/ Loan

@JuhlTHFC 😂😂 literally getting linked with everyone one of our players !

That’s my nr. 1 choice!!! Fits all the right aspects of a dream keeper

@Mastrigt_ You have no clue how lucky you are to get him 💙🤍💙🤍 I can’t describe the thrill I had of going to watch us play under RDZ for 2 seasons. Magical stuff.

Has any player who has worked under De Zerbi ever publicly stated that they don’t like him?

@Christianjw92 You and every one else ! 💙🤍💙🤍

Would love to see De Zerbi bring Kaoru Mitoma to Tottenham

@InvertTheWing That’s not the point re Mitoma. The point is IF he leaves us will be to a champions league side. This is what he said when Saudi money came. I very much doubt it will be spurs even if they were interested. 💙🤍💙🤍

Looking at some of the replies and quotes. Do Brighton fans not realise their club is a stepping stone? Where on earth is this arrogance coming from? Tottenham could finish 17th 10 seasons in a row, and it’d still be a bigger, more attractive club than Brighton.

@Vrdfr_ He will sign a new contract at Brighton 💙🤍💙🤍

My take is the WC will get him back in better conversations. He stayed too long at Brighton.

@Mrjamieohara1 Absolute elite manager. Loved his time with us. Time is his enemy 💙🤍💙🤍

Let’s gooooo 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@ExpressionsOOZ Bloody love RDZ 💙🤍💙🤍 BHA, you are in for a treat

After 2 seasons of HELL in the Premier league 🤬 This could be the start of something new like High school musical 🤩

@CFCaudu @talkSPORT You are right. He is way to good for spurs

@talkSPORT I agree with Darren Lewis, I don't think Roberto De Zerbi deserves to be Tottenham manager

Darren Lewis claims not a "single thing" about De Zerbi's body of work warrants the Spurs job! 😬

@Mrjamieohara1 Spurs fans do not realise how lucky they are if they get RDZ. As a fan I loved it 💙🤍💙🤍

Sports bar tonight will be discussing Spurs I’ll have my say on it 10pm 🙌🏻

@HotspurLane RDZ is nothing like him 😉💙🤍💙🤍

I feel De Zerbi is very similar to Ange in the sense that if/when it works, it'll be fantastic to watch. 👏 The problem is #THFC absolutely do not currently have a squad that is able to play this fluidly! If RDZ is SERIOUSLY backed (and we stay up) it could be fun....🇮🇹👀

@Tezza2799 @NeoTHFC We were stable for sure. But RDZ transformed us as he will you if you stay up. His ideas need time and practice. You are in for a joyous ride. 💙🤍💙🤍

@NeoTHFC And potter did a lot of work before hand they were doing well already when he got put in charge

And took them into Europe in the same season 🤍🇮🇹

@NeoTHFC You will bloody love him as we did. 💙🤍💙🤍

@footballz_tv @DanHoward1010 Oh they will buy in. He is incredibly charismatic. That football took some time to implement. Spurs do not have that. I bloody love De Zerbi. But he needs time and clever players to put the plan in place. 💙🤍💙🤍

@DanHoward1010 You don’t realize how a good coach can transform a team take man united for example

Roberto De Zerbi Ball….. SPURS FANS THIS IS WHAT YOU ARE GET FROM DE ZERBI

@Matthew85030857 @kanefromthelane You will love him. As we did. He’s a handful for the board. But the fans will love him and the football so so good. He just needs a pre season. He can’t implement his style in your remaining games. You just need to hope you survive. Then you can enjoy him 💙🤍💙🤍

@kanefromthelane Yes Kane, remember streaming it, couldn't believe how many chances they had. Think it's a good appointment. Don't care if his an asshole he isn't my mate, I just want to see sexy winning football.

Not that it’s really that important or relevant but De Zerbi’s Brighton pulled us apart in a way I’ve never seen before at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

@InvertTheWing De Zerbi is a genius. A handful but a genuis. Spurs fans will love him 💙🤍💙🤍

De Zerbi Negatives: — Anger management skills of a gorilla. — Arguments and bust ups with his own players. — Falling out with the board. — Tactically stubborn. Lack of a Plan B. Idealist. — Defended and platformed an abuser. De Zerbi Positives: — Good enough to keep Tottenham up. — Will bring short-term success. — No nonsense attitude will force players to respect him, or get out. Only universe I see him succeeding is if they give him unlimited backing (won't happen).

@footballconfid1 As a BHA fan it’s possible. If you were in Europe. I see a side in top 6 coming and he will go there if he leaves. He is superb. 💙🤍💙🤍

Jan Paul van Hecke, Brighton 2025/26… 🔥 Toby Alderweireld vibes… Dragusin OUT and JP van Hecke IN would be an instant (and affordable) upgrade for next season… IF Spurs stay up!
