OhSoSpurs — The Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

How can Tottenham turn total control into open-play chances? A Licence coach JJ says Spurs are still rushing it in the final third, even after a third straight Premier League win. Jim and JJ walk through Tottenham's 2-0 win over 10-man Crystal Palace: Jean-Philippe Mateta's red card on Micky van de Ven, why Palace's low block was so hard to break without Savio, and where Roberto De Zerbi's side are after three wins on the bounce. They pick their most improved players under De Zerbi, from Archie Gray and Mateus Fernandes to Mathys Tel, Jan Paul van Hecke and Micky van de Ven, and why Sandro Tonali is the one player JJ would keep fit all season. JJ thinks a new striker could help, but only a different profile. You'll want to hear why he wouldn't sign another Dominic Solanke or Omar Marmoush right now. Thanks to Roston for sending in this week's question. Want the full Palace deep dive with JJ and Enya?

AUDIO LISTENERS PLEASE READ: I have put together a visual pack so you can see the screen shots and moments we are talking about with time stamps https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jhyPIeMOaz5LpvqptPl3i9K71rmeweln How has Micky van de Ven gone from 13th percentile to 91st for line-breaking passes in one summer? Professional analyst Enya says it's a role change, not a form swing, and the frames back her up. Jim and Enya walk through the Gradient data on Tottenham's most transformed player under Roberto De Zerbi: line-breaking passes, passes into the final third, positioning mistakes and the carries that have been coached out. Then they put the numbers next to the footage from Fulham and Crystal Palace last season and Chelsea away this season, and the pattern is the same every time. The second half covers Conor Gallagher, Gradient's most improved Spurs player year on year, and why Mathys Tel's passing into the box has jumped 70 percentile points. The Chelsea 13th-minute frame sits in the same zone of the pitch as a Fulham frame from last season, and the decision is the opposite. You'll want to see the two side by side. Listening on audio?

What did Spurs do at Stamford Bridge that they couldn't do in August? A Licence coach JJ says it comes down to two things: De Zerbi's ladder and the honeycomb. Jim and JJ go through Tottenham's 2-0 win at Chelsea player by player: Kinsky's brave sweeper role, why De Zerbi called it Van de Ven's best game under him, Mateus Fernandes in the deeper role, Mathys Tel's second half and his goal, Kudus' work rate, and where Marmoush actually fits in this squad. JJ puts it on record that Fernandes has "potentially a world class player" in him, and breaks down Tel's goal touch by touch, from the line of the run to the two touches before the shot. Then he explains the ladder and the honeycomb, and you'll want to hear why he thinks it's the whole reason Spurs won. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Is beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge the moment Spurs fans finally trust the manager? Jim calls it "a turning point of trust", and Si hasn't stopped smiling. Jim, Johnny and Si go through Tottenham's 2-0 win at Chelsea: Si on Mateus Fernandes as the pivot that made everything click, Jim on why Tonali and Fernandes give Spurs one of the best midfields in the league, and Johnny on Mathys Tel, the forgotten man who kept his head up through all the criticism and scored one of the goals of the season. The members' questions take the episode somewhere deeper. Si explains what he's learned about De Zerbi from the players who've worked under him, and Johnny makes the case for Spurs fans dropping the shackles of the past, with one condition he's not willing to compromise on. Then the panel give their honest answer on whether Spurs can qualify for the Champions League and win the FA Cup.

Has the recovery finally started? Spurs have their first Premier League win, but DJ calls it relief rather than joy, and Stu says the 3-1 was "very flattering". Jim, Stu and DJ go through the win over Coventry: Tonali's role and why he isn't Pirlo, De Zerbi's back five, James Madison as the difference maker, Kulusevski's emotional return, and Marmoush opening his account. They also look at the aerial problem at centre back, Archie Gray covering everywhere, and whether Ben Davies is about to become a starter. Stu has the numbers on the "cursed stadium" myth, and you'll want to hear why DJ thinks Marmoush is the new Brennan Johnson. Then it's Chelsea away, and only one of the three predicts a Spurs win. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Can Spurs finally get off the bottom against Coventry? Four panellists, four predictions, and not one of them is backing against a Tottenham win. Jim, Johnny, Stu and Si preview Monday night's game against Coventry, starting with the good news: Kulusevski is back on the bench. Then the bad news. Savio is out for "some weeks", Bergvall's knee thins the midfield again, and Si puts his name to a guaranteed Maddison start against his boyhood club. The panel also ask whether the Richarlison decision was ever De Zerbi's to make, and why Spurs passed on the Turkey offer. Stay for the end, where things get silly. Johnny is asked which figure from history should give the team talk, and you'll want to hear how that goes. Stu picks an emergency loan from Milan or PSV, and Si chooses whose phone he'd scroll through after the Marbella trip. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Is Coventry at home the best chance Spurs will get all season? Professional analyst and former player Enya says the numbers make it a must-win. Jim and Enya preview Tottenham vs Coventry using the data: the expected points table, Coventry's numbers after their 4-1 win over Newcastle, and why a deep block could still make Spurs uncomfortable. They also go through the big selection calls, including Maddison or Gallagher at number 10, Senesi or Van de Ven, Bergvall or Fernandes without Bentancur, and Solanke or Marmoush, before picking their starting XIs and predicting the score. Listen for where Chelsea sit on expected points ahead of Stamford Bridge, and for the name second on Spurs' xG list. Neither of us saw it coming.

Can a draw feel like a win? After Spurs came back with ten men at Old Trafford, the panel says this was the first emotional win of the season, and the numbers back it up. Jim, Si, Stu and DJ go through Man United vs Tottenham: the first half Spurs dominated, Solanke’s equaliser after the armband show of faith, Tonali’s understated best game in a Spurs shirt, Gallagher’s pressing, Van Hecke’s distribution and the moments he was caught out, and why Archie Gray and Destiny Udogie deserve more credit. Then Coventry at home, and why it has to be a win. The Bentancur red card splits the panel too. Everyone agrees his was deserved, but once you hear Si and Stu go at it over Luke Shaw, you’ll have to pick a side. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Why is A Licence coach JJ frustrated after Spurs’ late point at Old Trafford? Because they dominated Man United for almost an hour and should have been out of sight. Jim and JJ break down Man United vs Tottenham: the line-up and the load management behind it, why Mateus Fernandes isn’t starting, Conor Gallagher’s man-of-the-match performance, the pressing that pinned United back, Van Hecke being isolated out wide, and how the Bentancur red card started. Then Solanke: whether the captain’s armband was a gamble, and why it paid off. There’s also a moment JJ can’t let go of. Once you hear how close Kudus came to an open goal, you’ll understand why Savio is his biggest frustration.

Would you take five years of great football finishing second to Arsenal, or ugly football that finishes above them? DJ says Spurs fans who claim they want beautiful football really just want wins. Jim, Johnny and DJ preview Man United vs Tottenham: why Old Trafford might suit this Spurs side better than home, the centre-back worries before kick-off, Udogie over Robertson against United’s wingers, Kudus and Savio out wide, and whether Gallagher plays the 10. Then they get to when “we’re getting better” has to turn into wins, and what a fair punishment for Man City looks like. DJ also gives a first look at his research into every Premier League goal this season, and once you hear how many involve a deflection or a penalty, you’ll understand why he believes in luck even if De Zerbi doesn’t.

Can Spurs finally get the win at Old Trafford? United fan Mike from TA Outdoors says both clubs have exactly the same problem, and it shows the moment either side goes a goal down. Jim and Mike preview Man United vs Tottenham: two squads underperforming their talent, home crowds turning faster than ever, Carrick and De Zerbi under pressure, the Rashford and Cunha debate, injury lists that are clearing but not yet fit, and the battle on Spurs’ right where Savio meets Luke Shaw. Then both make their score predictions, and Mike explains why he thinks Spurs will still finish top six. There’s also a piece of trivia Mike walks straight into, about which club David Beckham spent his first four years with. Most United fans have never heard it. Mike also shares his favourite way to get outdoors this weekend, making soap from silver birch leaves.

What should happen to Manchester City now? Luke, an MBA and self-confessed football business nerd, says relegation alone would barely register, and that the Premier League's own reputation depends on getting this right. Jim and Luke walk through the full picture with City found to have broken the rules and an appeal pending: why the league's commercial pull rests on trust, the Serie A precedent, how Chelsea's case differs, what a complete punishment package looks like, and the compensation question for clubs like Tottenham who missed out on Champions League football. And there's one scenario nobody is talking about yet. Once you hear what a January fire sale of City's squad could look like, and where Luke thinks Haaland ends up, you'll see why this could reshape far more than one club.

Do Tottenham's worst starts really lead to their best eras? Author and White Hart Review editor Andrew Pettifer has fifty years in the stands and two books of research that say the pattern is real. Jim and Andrew walk through every precedent: the 1975 escape against champions Leeds, relegation turning straight into the Ardiles and Villa era, bottom in November 1988 with Gazza before finishing sixth, the 2008 two-points-from-eight season that became the Redknapp years, Poch's near-sacking in 2014, and the 1912-13 side that didn't win until game 13. Plus why nostalgia lies to all of us about which era was really the best. And stay for the Sydney fish market story — oysters with Ledley King, a chance meeting with a club figure who didn't sleep for three months last season, and a trivia chain that ends with the invention of the Adidas Predator.

What if every verdict on Tottenham is being passed on a team that no longer exists? Aaron of The Professor says the squad has turned over so completely, ten in and ten out, that judging this side on last season's evidence is analysing a section of the ground after everyone in it has changed seats. Jim and Aaron work through the reset: why the new signings didn't inherit two years of trauma, the Man United comparison that shows how few survivors remain, why five games is no sample at all, and the case that Tottenham's goals are far closer than the mood suggests. Then the big one — the "just buy a goalscorer" myth, and the research showing how rarely anyone repeats a top-ten scoring season (Spurs have already run that experiment once). Aaron also puts a prediction on the record about where Tottenham's goals come from by the end of the season — and once you hear the reasoning, the January striker debate sounds very different.

Is Van Hecke Tottenham's best defender or their biggest liability? Professional analyst Enya says the data supports both — one of the two highest-graded centre backs in the Premier League, and Spurs' worst offender for positional mistakes at three times the league median. Jim and Enya grade Tottenham's back line through Gradient's execution scores: how the Van Hecke–Van de Ven pairing was built as a deliberate trade-off, Van de Ven quietly ranking as the most reliable of the lot, Robertson's 89th percentile grade and the role he was actually signed for, the honest conversation about Kinsky's start, and the Spence-shaped gap pointing to a January right-back. And there's a verdict on the "Robertson is washed" narrative that will annoy a lot of people — Enya ran his physical numbers, and one of them is the second-fastest speed clocked by any Spurs player this season.

How do you actually make Tottenham click? A Licence coach JJ says the click isn't one magic moment — it's a chain, and the first link is Savio, who the data already rates as Spurs' best player. Jim, Enya and JJ work through every layer of the fix: the Villa numbers showing clear chances tripled in a single game, the confidence cycle that snaps whenever Spurs concede first, why no single signing solves it, the Will Lankshear alternate universe, six pivot players and one right back, and Enya's midfield reshuffle — Fernandes into the pivot, Gallagher at 10, and a Bentancur verdict JJ flat-out refuses to accept. They also land on what the click will really look like — and it's not winning ten in a row. Once you hear Jim's stutter-into-gear theory, you'll watch the next five games differently.

Are Tottenham actually just not very good? Two points from five games and 20th at the break, the full Originals panel finally puts the question on the table — and the answer is more uncomfortable than a simple yes. Jim, Si, Johnny, Stu and DJ walk through the Villa collapse: the best first half at home in years undone by the concede-before-half-time curse, the bleeding rule that took Van de Ven off the pitch for the opener, DJ's cascade theory of the squad planning failures, Si's case that Spurs have had no club philosophy since push-and-run, and the first genuine panel doubts about De Zerbi — the prickliness, the psychologist answer, and why Stu says the real questions belong to Vinay and Lange. There's also a forensic reading of Pedro Porro's Instagram post — and once Johnny reads it aloud, you'll reach the same six-month conclusion the panel did.

Did De Zerbi get the Villa game wrong? A Licence coach JJ says the manager went off script — and for the first time this season, the coach is on his naughty list alongside the players. Jim and JJ work through the defeat: the half-time Kudus change that broke Spurs' structure, why JJ would have hooked Marmoush first, the Tonali criticism he calls misplaced ("eight players in line before he reaches my office"), the Robertson–Kinsky mix-up rated 70/30, and Van Hecke's afternoon against Nico Jackson. Conor Gallagher gets his flowers too, after changing the game off the bench and scoring again — though the panel is awarding his goal to Matty Cash out of pure spite. And there's a rant worth staying for: JJ's breakdown of the goal he says can never be conceded at Premier League level — Sunday league fines all round, kitman included.

Can Aston Villa accidentally cure Tottenham's goal drought? Professional analyst Enya says Spurs' worst number in the league — xG per shot — is about to meet one of the only defences bad enough not to punish it. Jim and Enya preview Tottenham vs Aston Villa through the Gradient Sports data: the central-channel mismatch at the heart of Saturday's game, why the models give Spurs a 46% win chance, Van Hecke's elite line-breaking numbers and Van de Ven's quiet step forward, the set-piece continuity nobody's crediting, and the off-ball running stats that explain the Marmoush problem at Anfield. Enya also delivers her honest schedule-strength caveat — and once you hear which teams Spurs have actually faced, the "easy fixtures" narrative falls apart. The 82nd Percentile, our weekly premium data show with JJ, Enya and DJ, is live on Patreon — roughly 15 founder spots (£5/month for life) remain. https://www.patreon.com/c/82ndPercentile/membership #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

What if Tottenham's main problem isn't finishing? A Licence coach JJ says the real flaw is recognition — seeing the moment half a second too late — and it runs through every sliding-doors chance at Anfield. Jim and JJ go player by player through the Liverpool game: Tosin's impressive first start and whether the Danso doubters (Jim included) got it wrong, Senesi's playmaking from centre half, the Udogie toe-poke behind McAllister's goal, the Archie Gray freeze-frame doing the rounds, Conor Gallagher's real value beyond the number 10 comparisons, and whether Marmoush can truly lead the line. Then JJ puts his house keys on the table and explains his toothpaste theory of Spurs' season — once you've heard it, you won't watch the next game the same way.

Check out 82nd Percentile here and grab one of the final founders spots before they are gone - https://www.patreon.com/cw/82ndPercentile Tottenham had 39 touches in Everton's box and forgot to shoot — how does that even happen? DJ's diagnosis: Spurs are trying to score the perfect goal when literally any goal would do. Jim, Johnny and DJ work through the 0-0 with more affection than fury: the opening 20 minutes that had Jim welling up at the stadium (in a good way, mostly), the boos at full time and whether they were fair, the freeze-frame that proves Fernandes was secretly playing right back all along, and the members' question on whether Spurs should just pay Richarlison to go away. Then it's off to Anfield in the Carabao Cup, where Jim has banned all 0-0 predictions and DJ responds with a Joel Matip own-goal prophecy that must be heard to be believed. Also featuring: correct Greggs sausage roll storage technique, a Dubravka shirt spotted in the wild, and the launch of The 82nd Percentile — our new data deep-dive show with JJ, Enya and DJ.

It goes up to £8 for anyone after the first 100. Why aren't Tottenham scoring, and is Sandro Tonali really to blame for it? A licence coach JJ and professional analyst Enya Collins say the data and the eye test agree — and it isn't Tonali. Jim, Enya and JJ walk through Spurs 0-0 Everton from the system up: Archie Gray inverting from right back, Mateus Fernandes dropping into a back three, Van Hecke's progressive passing, and the half-space run that was on all first half. Enya's numbers show Tottenham won possession, progressive passes and touches in the box — 28 of them — and still lost on xG. JJ explains the David Moyes tweak that shut the midfield down after the break. Then Jim asks the panel to tell him straight whether the £100m midfielder is the problem. The answer involves the 84th percentile, seventh in the Premier League, and a comparison with Rice and Caicedo you'll want to hear before the next Tonali pile-on. Where the eye test meets the data.

Is Solanke with Marmoush behind him really the fix for Tottenham's goal drought? Professional analyst Enya says the pairing everyone wants costs Spurs more than it adds — and that Marmoush can score 20 this season. Jim and Enya walk through what a De Zerbi number nine actually does, Marmoush's first games in detail, why the missing piece is a creative 10 rather than a target man, and the breaking Mudryk injury news that changes the winger picture. Then a full Everton preview: cracking the Moyes low block, score predictions, and Tel's breakthrough moment. They also get into whether De Zerbi has quietly lost authority over team selection — and once you hear the biomechanics discussion, you'll understand why Spurs players are suddenly sipping cherry juice.

Why haven't Tottenham scored in three games — and is the Forest handball row hiding the real story? DJ rewatched all 31 of Conor Gallagher's passes and says the numbers change the Fernandes debate entirely. Jim, Johnny and DJ walk through the goalless draw at Nottingham Forest: the disallowed handball and the Kudus penalty nobody's discussing, Van de Ven's captain-level display, the Gallagher vs Mateus Fernandes trade-off with JJ's coaching verdict, Tottenham's medical overhaul and the rotation it's about to bring, and whether De Zerbi should prioritise Everton or the Carabao Cup trip to Liverpool. Jim also lays out his theory on refereeing bias against Spurs — and once you've heard the Arteta comparison, you'll struggle to unsee it. Members' questions this week from Neil, Lee, Stefan, Roston, Howard, Kevin and Sean — Marmoush and Solanke answers coming in the Everton preview. Considered, warm, panel-honest.

What's the one thing Tottenham must fix before this season's up? A Licence coach JJ says the flaw runs through the entire attack — and no signing solves it. Jim and JJ walk through the Nottingham Forest performance and whether Spurs are genuinely improving under Roberto De Zerbi: Sandro Tonali's step forward and the criticism JJ calls unfair, Conor Gallagher's underrated work in the 10, Van Hecke's growth since Brentford, and the Marmoush decision that captures everything in one moment. JJ then opens the coaching manual — how professionals actually train this, from individual video sessions to 11v11 scenarios — and you'll want to hear why he thinks it can't be rushed before Everton.

How good is Mykhailo Mudryk really — and what are Tottenham actually getting? Professional analyst Enya has run his data profile, and it doesn't say what the jokes say. Jim and Enya close out the window: the De Zerbi–Mudryk history at Shakhtar, the truth about the doping ban and the two lost years, the £75m option ceiling, why Spurs' confidence-rebuild signings keep failing, what Chelsea fans really think of Tosin, the Danso exit, and the window's most underrated success — Mikey Moore's loan to Köln and Sosa's to Porto. Then the Nottingham Forest preview, powered by Gradient: Forest's long-ball, low-possession style, the corner threat, and why Spurs' away record inverts the usual disadvantage. Both make a prediction — but one of them goes against their own head, and you'll want to hear the case. Data first, feelings second.

How good was Tottenham's transfer window really? The Originals go signing by signing and land on a final score — and the deal that splits the panel is the one Chelsea couldn't wait to be rid of. Jim, Si and DJ walk the whole window: the Fernandes–Tonali midfield transformation, whether the defence actually got worse after Kevin Danso's exit and the unfilled right-back gap, Marmoush and Savio reshaping the attack, and the Mudryk loan from Chelsea — including the De Zerbi history that explains why Spurs did it. Favourite signings of the summer, best value among the free transfers — Robertson, Senesi or Dúbravka — and the window ratings close the pod (the panel can't agree whether deadline day costs it a full point).

Iliman Ndiaye to Tottenham: a full scout report on the Everton winger from a professional coach and a professional analyst — his dribbling, his real numbers, and whether he's Spurs' missing number 10. Plus Tottenham 0-2 Newcastle reaction: the xG data behind the defeat, Omar Marmoush's debut, Tonali's struggles, Mateus Fernandes' rise, Kevin Danso's exit talk and what the final signing of the window should be. The panel also debates whether Maddison still starts when fit, the right-back problem, and whether anyone's season prediction survives one point from two games. With JJ (@TheFullCo) and Enya Collins. A couple of production notes. Jim asks listeners for feedback on "this new format" but the episode never names the show — if this panel (coach + analyst + fanalysts) is becoming a recurring series alongside The Originals, it wants a series name in the title from episode two onwards so it builds its own search equity. And the Danso section is worth a standalone clip: "Danso wants out — should Spurs care?" will do numbers on Shorts/TikTok this week while his move is live, with JJ's "it could have been a little bit better from him" line as the hook.

How will Tottenham line up against Newcastle, and what does the data say about Spurs' chances? Jim and professional analyst Enya pick their predicted XI: the Udogie vs Robertson call, Van Hecke at centre back, Tonali and Bentancur as the pivots, and Solanke vs Marmoush up front. Enya's match report breaks down the xG prediction, why Newcastle's counter-attacks and aerial duels are a tough matchup, where Tottenham can hurt them through the buildup funnel, and the Elanga problem. Plus Sandro Tonali facing his former club and both score predictions before Enya heads to the match. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Are Tottenham finally starting to look like Tottenham again? Jim, Si and DJ walk through the 5-1 Charlton win, preview Newcastle at home, and drop one of the boldest Aston Villa predictions of the season. Fernandes was the transformational player, not Bergvall. Bentancur behind him with Tonali could finally give Spurs the midfield trio the last two seasons have been begging for. De Zerbi's public message about Tonali and Senesi's fitness — decoded live on tape. And why Marmoush is closer to Yao Pedro at Brighton than Danny Welbeck as a facing-forward number nine. Plus the Newcastle preview — where the battle of the wings is won or lost, whether Newcastle's own transition changes the calculus, and why the Jed Spence-shaped hole at right back matters if Porro isn't fit for ninety minutes. Have Spurs forgotten what it's like to be a home fortress? Si on the £500-per-win season ticket price last season. And the away-dressing-room "downgrade" story — smart marginal gain or gimmick? Score predictions from Johnny (via WhatsApp), Si, DJ and Jim close the pod. Then hot takes: DJ says Savio scores more for Spurs this season than in his entire Manchester City career, Si says Coventry stay up, and Jim goes properly bold on Aston Villa — bottom eight, Emery leaves after a Champions League semi-final.

Should Roberto De Zerbi get a pass for Tottenham's 3-0 defeat at Brentford? The Originals panel splits — and it's a proper split. Jim, Si, Stu, Johnny and DJ walk the opening-day loss with fresh eyes. What went wrong tactically — Kinsky's parry, Van Hecke's stepping-out habit (same one as vs Hoffenheim), Bergvall's press without triggers, Gallagher running like a chicken with his head cut off. Why every Spurs attacking moment came from Tell and Robertson on the left. Why the corner Spurs conceded from had six players marking three at the front post. Plus Si's soon-to-be-quoted "our possession is like my gym membership — it exists but doesn't do a lot of good." Stu's "119 points from 105 games" stat. DJ's tactical read on why he won't give De Zerbi a pass after this if it happens again. And Jim's defence — Spurs actually got the fifth-most points in the league across De Zerbi's seven-game stint at the end of last season. Panel Charlton away predictions: DJ 1-0, Si 2-0, Johnny wins on penalties, Stu 2-1, Jim 3-1. Members read on tape: Ivor, Mr Pipe, Sean Howe, Stefan, Howard and Lee. Considered, warm, panel-honest.

Why did Tottenham lose so convincingly to Brentford? A Licence Coach JJ says the scoreline actually flatters Spurs. Post-match tactical debrief with JJ (The Full Co). Kinsky's parry frame by frame — the lower-hand buckle that turned a save into a goal. Van Hecke's Spurs debut against a dynamic Brentford front line — the discipline still to learn as Romero's replacement. Bergvall's pressing problem — no triggers, no cover, and the warning sign JJ spotted at Brentford's second goal. Plus: why Sean Robertson wasn't meant to be the starting left back, the wide-vs-central-players disconnect that left the whole team disjointed, and whether the returning Van de Ven, Fernandes, Savinho and Marmoush actually fix any of this. JJ says it's deeper than personnel. And the optimistic close: why this humbling might be exactly the reset Spurs needed, and Roberto De Zerbi's "soul of the football club" callback. Considered, nuanced, tactically honest. A Coach's View. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Are Tottenham top four with Marmoush and Savinho? The Originals panel goes on record — and Jim goes further. Jim, Stu, Johnny and DJ walk the whole window: the double swoop from Manchester City (Omar Marmoush and Savinho), the Djed Spence departure to Inter that's still hurting, the Tonali–Fernandes midfield already looking the part, and where all this actually lands Tottenham in the table. Johnny: top-four hope. Stu: outside Champions League Europe. DJ: four-to-seven range. Jim: alone on the title hill. Panel score predictions for the Brentford away opener close the pod (one panellist has gone with 5-5 — you'll want to hear why). Plus the injured Spurs attackers debate — Mohammed Kudus, James Maddison, Xavi Simons, Dejan Kulusevski — who comes back best? The squad-depth walkthrough after Les Binder's question. And Stu on Djed Spence arriving in Italy wearing a puffer jacket in summer. Members' questions from Lee, Kevin, David Kenna, Ross, Howard, Jonathan Rainbird, Dean, Les Binder and Mr Pipe (happy birthday). Considered, warm, panel-honest.

Spurs are in talks with Manchester City for both Omar Marmoush and Savinho so is it crazy to say this team can challenge at the very top? Analyst Enya Collins, A-licence coach JJ (The Full Co) and in-house tactician DJ join Jim to find out. Where Marmoush actually plays best and what the data says: elite link play, the half-space pockets he loves, the aerial weakness, and why the first few games might underwhelm. Why "not good enough for City" is football's laziest narrative. Then the fun part: how a front four of Marmoush, Savinho, Gakpo and Kudus fits in one team, Kudus training at ten, a possible 2-2-2 shape, the Maddison 90-minute stat that stunned the panel, and the ceiling debate that splits the room — with one panellist promising a data thread to back the optimism.

What's the one problem that could unravel Spurs' season — and why has nobody noticed it? Former professional player and analyst Enya Collins joins Jim with the data on the gap hiding in an otherwise brilliant summer. The 33/33/33 Maddison reality — injured, finding form, or brilliant — and why his reputation grows the longer he's out. Kulusevski's return from major injury and why recurrence risk matters. The case for Conor Gallagher: the "creation cliff" when he plays, versus what he genuinely grades well at, and how De Zerbi has always used wildly different profiles at ten — the one common trait being ball retention. Then the transfer search: why almost nobody in Europe fits the profile, and the three realistic targets — Bilal El Khannouss (now genuinely linked with Spurs), Charles De Ketelaere, and Romano Schmid — plus the homegrown catch that complicates replacing Maddison. All data from Gradient Sport — free site and app, well worth exploring. A collaboration with Enya Collins. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

One week until the Premier League returns — so where do Spurs really rank? Professional A-licence coach JJ joins Jim for a full pre-season audit and a final league prediction for 2026/27. What preseason actually revealed about Roberto De Zerbi's system: the buy-in across multiple different elevens, the possession and rotation patterns embedding, and the counterattack vulnerability still to fix. Then the squad, position by position — Kinsky as number one, Robertson and the left-back picture, the Tonali and Fernandes double pivot, Archie Gray's maturity, and the honest verdict on Solanke and Richarlison up front. The big question: if Gakpo and Savinho arrive, do Spurs move from a fifth-to-eighth team into the Champions League places? Plus breakout watch on Mikey Moore and Luka Williams-Barnett, the rivals wildcard from City to Carrick's United, and JJ's final prediction.

A first-time crossover: former professional player and analyst Enya Collins joins professional A-licence coach JJ (The Full Co) to bust the three biggest misconceptions in football — all linked back to Tottenham Hotspur. Myth 1: confidence is not talent. Why a player in a broken environment isn't a bad player, the "mentality monster" myth, and how coaching staffs actually build confidence — plus the Levy and Ndombele story. Myth 2: you can't just move a player to a new position. Why "put Romero at six" doesn't work, what coaches mean by giving players "pictures", Enya's own forced winger stints, and our favourite forced switches from Porro to Bernardo Silva at left back. Myth 3: injury timelines are almost always wrong. The Kulusevski case, why the media quotes the minimum of every recovery range, the hidden two to three months of match fitness after returning to training, and the psychological side of coming back that nobody measures. A collaboration with The Full Co and Enya Collins. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Which players have adapted to Roberto De Zerbi's system and which areas still need work? Professional coach and A licence holder JJ breaks down the Getafe friendly and what it tells us about Spurs' pre-season. The vertical play is back, Kinsky is clipping balls over the press, and Archie Gray got a live coaching lesson from De Zerbi on the touchline. But the creativity in the final third? Still a work in progress. Chapters: 00:00 What's working in De Zerbi's pre-season? 00:30 Vertical play returns — Spurs go down the middle 02:38 Kinsky playing over the press 04:03 The goal, broken down: Tonali to Gallagher 07:45 Tonali isn't Pirlo — so what is he? 10:16 Van Hecke's aerial surprise 11:40 Halfway verdict: three big ticks 12:27 Archie Gray and the De Zerbi touchline moment 15:02 Defensive distances: no more open motorways 16:49 The big area of improvement: final-third creativity 19:36 What to watch in the next friendly Follow JJ (The Fullco) for more coaching content — channel linked above.

Everyone's arguing about which striker Spurs should sign. Jim and A-licensed professional coach JJ (The Full Co) ask a better question: does De Zerbi's system want an out-and-out number nine at all? They break down what a false nine actually does — pinning defenders, posting up, dropping into pockets to bring runners in — and why the traditional penalty-box striker is disappearing from the top of the game. Plus: how De Zerbi manipulates opposition presses, why Spurs looked like they had three number 10s in pre-season, the Gallagher trade-off, and how recruitment has swung from athleticism to technicians — with Osimhen, Gakpo and Solanke all viewed through that lens. A review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts would make us very happy. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

New partnership, new data. Jim and analyst Enya Collins put the whole Spurs defence and the new midfield through Gradient Sport's event-based grading — every action scored on its own merit rather than against other players. Danso grades as a proper box defender, Van de Ven's numbers explain why he needs a high line, Senesi makes a surprising case to start, and Van Hecke barely has a weakness. Then the flags: Robertson's game is built on athleticism at exactly the age it fades, and a pattern emerges suggesting Spurs' recruitment has been over-indexed on athleticism for years. Plus the verdict on the new midfield: why £100m Tonali and Mateus Fernandes grade as a genuinely complementary duo. Data by Gradient Sport. A review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts would make us very happy. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Cody Gakpo to Spurs is the debate splitting the fanbase — so Jim, Si and Stu settle in. Stu has watched Gakpo since his PSV debut and explains why the Brennan Johnson comparison misses badly, Si brings the numbers, and the panel asks whether £70m is really the problem people think it is. Also: the research showing homegrown players carry a 40% price premium (the "Premier League tax"), why "best striker at the club" is exactly Richarlison's problem, what's dragging Romero's £34m fee down, how much control De Zerbi should have, the academy reset behind Archie Gray's armband, and where Spurs finish if Gakpo and Savinho both arrive. A review on Spotify or Apple Podcasts would make us very happy. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Tottenham are strongly linked with Cody Gakpo and the link has split the fanbase. Jim is joined by A-licensed professional coach JJ (The Full Co) to break down what Gakpo would actually bring to De Zerbi's Spurs: why he's closer to Kudus than Brennan Johnson, how a 6ft 4in powerful runner reshapes the left side, how he fits the high press, and why the "not enough goals" argument collapses under scrutiny — plus what a Gakpo signing means for Mathys Tel and the balance of the squad. GA = goals + assists combined. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Which strikers should Spurs actually sign after Kroupi's three-month injury? Enya Collins takes The Analyst through four data-backed alternatives — with Wyscout and Hudl doing the heavy lifting alongside the eye test. Charles De Ketelaere (Atalanta's 6'4" utility man with elite vision and ghost-runner instincts). Omar Marmoush (the ex-Man City winger-striker hybrid Enya compares to Arsenal's Zinchenko/Jesus level-up signings). Endrick (Real Madrid's 19-year-old Brazilian with the whole country behind him). And Ferran Torres — the Barcelona striker Roberto De Zerbi just called "the shark" in a press interview. Enya's #1 pick isn't the name most Spurs fans are shouting about — and Jim's mystery reveal at the end pays off De Zerbi's own coded hint. Considered, nuanced, data-driven analysis.

Which Spurs players should Tottenham fans be most excited about this season? Jim and DJ take The Scouting Room through their top five with Luca Williams-Barnettm, James Madison without a preseason minute, Tel ff the back of a stunning free kick, Archie Gray (currently getting the captain's armband over Ben Davies), and Hardy all fighting for number 1! Plus honourable mentions for the £200m midfield of Sandro Tonali and Matias Fernandes and DJ's read on why the composed-plus-expressive pairing is going to click. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

What has De Zerbi's Tottenham shown us in preseason? A Licence Coach JJ walks A Coach's View through the tactical patterns already emerging — with the tactics-board register the format is built on. The diamonds and triangles. The bounce-pass buildup. The swing-pivot midfield with Sandro Tonali and Fernandes rotating between 6, 8 and 10. The touchline-winger case for signing Savinho. Why JJ thinks Dominic Solanke will struggle to physically hold up against top-level centre backs — and why a new striker signing (Krupi or otherwise) is coming. Plus: is a vision-based footballer born or coached? (with a Kevin Keegan callback). Is playing inverted fullback good preparation for central midfield? Is Savinho the new Leandro Damião — a transfer saga that never actually arrives? And Tottenham's aerial-defence vulnerability against set-piece-heavy sides. Considered, nuanced tactical analysis.

Enya and Jim take the whole Spurs squad apart. Before the summer, Enya's data model had us averaging 12th across every position group in the league. After the window? 7th. But two positions are still broken, and the "depth" we keep talking about might not actually exist. Inside: the full pre-window audit position by position, why the model has us 12th at centre-back despite the "world-class pairing" narrative, why Enya would still keep Romero over Van Hecke and Senesi, the two positions where depth is still an illusion, the 2028 contract cliff around Kulusevski and Maddison, and what the preseason tour selections tell us about the pecking order. All the charts mentioned are up on Enya's X (@EnyaCollins) and the OhSoSpurs channels — worth pulling them up while you listen if you're near a screen. Data source: Wyscout.

First proper look at De Zerbi's 26/27 Spurs DJ and Jim take The Scouting Room through the MK Dons pre-season opener with the tactical evidence: the bounce passes, the inverted fullbacks, Fernandez already scoring a goal-of-the-season contender, and Tel running the same bending line five times to show the automations are already being drilled. Then the young players. DJ flags Luca Williams-Barnett as one of the top prospects in world football and backs it up. Mikey Moore's Rangers loan growth spurt. Malachi Hardy at centre-back as one to watch. Plus who backs up Maddison at 10, why Connor Gallagher isn't quite a Madison, and what Bentancur being left off the pre season tour might mean. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Which Spurs sale hurt you the most? The Originals go on record — Berbatov, Waddle, Bale, Modric, Kane, Hoddle, Robbie Keane — every panellist names one they never got over. And it's the block that closes the episode on the warmest note. Before that: a considered tribute to Kevin Keegan, the first proper preview of De Zerbi's Spurs against MK Dons, and the Tynan Thompson departure that reopens the "no pathway for youth" debate. Chris Wood's Semenyo callback from the members' group lands mid-argument. The middle stretch is the substance: the Cristian Romero decision (DJ makes the "hit the reset button" case; Si argues sell-at-peak; Stu names the reputation problem in the Premier League); a panel love-in on Djed Spence that goes places most Spurs pods don't; and the two panel-on-record moments — trophy or top four (Sean Hurl's dilemma) plus a points prediction each. Warm, considered, nuanced. The Originals. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jim and UEFA A licence coach JJ build a fan's toolkit for reading the game: manager philosophies, protagonist vs antagonist (not what you think), between the lines, half spaces — and then apply it all to De Zerbi's Spurs, including the automations to listen out for and a pre-season homework assignment: watch the goal kicks, not the ball.

Spurs need a left winger — and Enya Collins, live from Vancouver, walks The Analyst through the five names every fan is arguing about with Wyscout and Hudl data doing the heavy lifting. Savinho as the low-block breaker and the case for two dribblers with Kudus on the opposite flank. Antoine Nusa as the profile-similar alternative — with the medical history and the Bundesliga-to-Premier-League step-up that changes the risk profile. Rafael Leao as the on-form game-breaker with the fallouts baggage — plus a considered read from Enya's diehard Milan-fan friend that reframes the "attitude" question. Cody Gakpo as the completely different inside-winger profile that might not actually fit De Zerbi's high-and-wide starter. And the twist: the current, only-fit left winger already in the squad. Enya's data-led defence of Matisse Tell — the crossing, the shot data, the confidence issue — is the pivot the episode earns. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Originals panel — Jim, Si, DJ and Stu — walk the full pre-season window with a considered read on where Spurs still need work. On the table: the Djed Spence stick-or-twist question and the mooted Nico Williams swap (does it actually make sense?); the aerial gap in the new-look Van Hecke / Senesi / VdV back line; the Gibbs-White dream and a panel vote on the Bergvall + £30m + sell-on framing; Rodrigo Krupi and Stu's "young Henry" line from a Bournemouth season-ticket-holder mate; the wing puzzle — Kudus back from surgery, Kulusevski question mark, Simons in December, and the Leao risk that DJ compares to the Kolo Muani work-rate scare. Plus the back-three debate — DJ's watched the Marseille tape and says it's mostly a back four in possession, Stu refuses to talk about it at all, and Si says it's coming whether Stu likes it or not. The panel closes on the points prediction that gives you the tension of the whole window — Si 67, Stu 72, DJ low 70s, Jim 82. #SpursNews #OhSoSpurs #TottenhamPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Which of Tottenham's young players are actually close to the first team? Analyst Enya Collins joins Jim to go player by player through the data: Yang Min-hyeok's mixed loan, Alfie Devine's quiet rise at Preston, Mikey Moore's breakout in Scotland, what happened to Jamie Donley, Will Lankshear's 12-goal season, Ashley Phillips' fit problem — and whether selling Luka Vušković for £50m was smart business or a future £200m regret.

Spurs have a £200m midfield. Analyst Enya Collins joins Jim to judge Sandro Tonali and Mateus Fernandes by the numbers: progressive passing and carrying, Fernandes' creativity in a struggling West Ham side, Tonali's hidden goal threat, how the two profiles fit together under De Zerbi and which signing Enya rates more.

Mateus Fernandes is through the door at £85m, and A Licence Coach JJ is here to walk through what Spurs have actually bought. Two talk tracks: first, the player on the pitch — profile, role in a De Zerbi double pivot, the line-breaking question, the ball-carrying upside, the defensive cover JJ thinks he brings. Then the player at the price — whether £85m is market-realistic or bubble-inflated, and why JJ thinks that question shouldn't decide how you feel about him on the pitch. The headline take of the episode: if you could only have one between Fernandes and Sandro Tonali, who do you take? JJ doesn't dodge it — he lays out the bet-on-the-future / bet-on-the-now framing that gives you the coach's actual decision under uncertainty. Plus: who slots in alongside him, where Bergvall fits now he wants to stay, what this means for Paulinha, and why a seven-for-three midfield isn't outlandish if the right ones leave.

A full house of Originals, a full window of news.

Spurs are spending close to £200 million to build the midfield De Zerbi actually wants. A-licence coach JJ joins Jim to walk through exactly what Tonali and Fernandes would bring to the system, to the squad balance, and to the bigger picture of the rebuild. - How both signings fit De Zerbi's double pivot - Why the back-line work (Senesi, Van Hecke, Porro) was the right first step - What the £200m actually delivers — and what still needs to follow - The Xhaka case study: why the same player can transform under a different system - Why "progressive passing" is a system question, not a one-player question The considered version of the Tonali and Fernandes conversation.

Spurs need a striker. Or do they?  Enya Collins runs the data on the striker market and lands somewhere most reaction channels won't — there's a real argument we don't need one as badly as the discourse suggests. Five European targets ranked by data and eye test — including the Marseille striker with a De Zerbi connection nobody's discussing. Plus why Solanke is actually a better De Zerbi striker than Richarlison, and why a winger upgrade probably matters more than a centre forward upgrade. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Bergvall wants out. Vuskovic wants out. £300m window. The panel can't agree. The Originals — Stu, DJ, Johnny and Jim — work through the questions that matter most this week. Should Spurs sell? Are the young players actually as good as we hoped? Lankshear, Solanke, Kinski, and where Spurs actually finish next season if every reported target lands. Plus DJ's contrarian Vuskovic take: Brighton wanting him is exactly why he'd keep him. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Sandro Tonali to Spurs has split the fanbase. Is he the deep-lying playmaker we've been crying out for? Or is he a £100m Bentancur replacement? In this week's Scouting Room, Enya Collins (data) and JJ (eye test, A-licence coach) break Tonali down on every metric that matters and answer the question the rest of Spurs YouTube isn't quite getting to. The verdict: Tonali is half of the midfield rebuild. Without a Stiller-or-Wharton signing to follow, the squad still has the same problem it had before. Plus: Enya's contrarian close on the squad building, and Jim's ruthless take on what Spurs need to stop being sentimental about. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Spurs have just signed Jan-Paul van Hecke from Brighton. A-licence coach JJ and in-house scout DJ break him down in the first ever Scouting Room. The new OhSoSpurs format puts each transfer target through both lenses: a professional coach on the eye test, an analyst-scout on the data, both in the same room. Today's verdict: thumbs up from both, with caveats. Plus: why Spurs effectively just signed two players for £25m each, the leadership profile we've been missing, the lapses to watch, and JJ's contrarian "most excited about" pick.

The data picks one of the most divisive strikers in football for Spurs. Our A-Licence coach pushes back hard. The Analyst (Enya Collins) and A Coach's View (JJ) combine for a new crossover format — three data-led targets put through the eye test. Marco Carnesecchi in goal, Angelo Stiller in midfield, Nicolas Jackson up front.

Spurs' biggest gap isn't up front, it's the controller in midfield. Enya Collins ranks the five players who could fix it. After calling Van Hecke and Bohoya before either link broke, Enya turns to the deep-lying playmaker Tottenham haven't had in years. The five: Nico Gonzalez, Alex Garcia, Manuel Loccatelli, Angelo Stiller, Adam Wharton — and why one of them might quietly be the right answer over the obvious pick.

Spurs could spend £250 million this summer without breaching any rules. So why does everyone assume the budget is tight? Ben W — corporate finance and OhSoSpurs Business End regular — joins Jim to break down the difference between what Spurs are ALLOWED to spend (SCR rules) and what they can ACTUALLY spend (cash position). Plus: the £100m the owners already injected, the rule change that benefits billionaire owners, and why Arsenal, City and Liverpool are about to inflate the market. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Why does the football world enjoy Spurs losing this much? Aaron — ProfSpur — joins Jim for the second episode of The Professor. We unpack his essay arguing that what looks like banter is structural — a class theory of why the football world wanted Tottenham relegated, even when their own teams were celebrating. The Big-6 entitlement from above. The historic-club resentment from below. The London / regional class layer. The media tone we've all noticed. And why "resentment" is more accurate than "hate."

We survived. Now we can finally laugh about it. The full Originals panel — Jim, DJ, Si, Stu and Johnny — sit down for the end-of-season awards: the most bizarre injuries (and Kulusevski's never-ending knock), the best and weirdest goals (Mickey Moore's Puskas, Solanke's scorpion), the takes that aged the worst, the moments we'll never forget, and five very different picks for player of the season. Then Stu walks us through the squad registration maths and what it forces us to do this summer — the priority signings, who has to go, and the one player who missed out on homegrown status by a single day. Plus: Andy Robertson incoming, the Perisic comparison, the Dougie Freedman question, and a Leicester reference at the end that you'll either love or have to actively try not to think about.

Spurs stayed up so what does it actually mean for the money? Welcome to The Auditors, the new OSoS series on the financial side of Tottenham. In this first episode, Jim is joined by Nick (Corporate Finance) and Ben (Finance Professional) for a clear-eyed look at what survival actually buys us, financially. They walk through PSR and the new Squad Cost Ratio, where Spurs' headroom sits now (around 54% versus the relegation alternative of 93%), why the headline rise in costs was largely out of the club's control, and the gap between £100m–£230m of theoretical PSR room and the actual cash in the bank. Then the wider picture: how parachute payments would have softened but not solved a relegation, why West Ham are in genuine trouble, the truth about the Macquarie loan and ENIC's £100m capital injection, and the figurehead question hanging over Vinai, Charrington and the Lewis family's separate statements. Two more episodes of The Auditors follow: modelling the actual summer budget, and how to spend it within the constraint.

The season's over, Spurs survived the drop, and now the rebuild begins. Jim is joined by JJ a coach with an A licence for A Coach's View: a player-by-player audit of the Tottenham squad heading into the summer. It starts as "Spurs don't need to do much" and turns into something far bigger. JJ makes the case for Rodrigo Bentancur and Micky van de Ven as the spine to build around, works through the goalkeeper and centre-half questions, the Solanke and Richarlison striker dilemma, what to do with loan hero Palhinha, the young-player calls on Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray, and why the midfield is where the real overhaul has to happen. There's also considered look at the viral video claiming De Zerbi has "masked" Palhinha — and why that story is not as tidy as it sounds. #KeepItLilyWhite #OhSo33 Learn more about your ad choices.

Jim is back from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, joined by DJ and Stu, to react to Spurs beating Everton and surviving the drop — the relief, the euphoria, and a season none of them will forget in a hurry. This is a reset episode, not a panic one. The panel digs into De Zerbi's points-per-game form, his press conference verdict on the squad and the famous "big broom", the goalkeeper question after Antonin Kinsky's redemption arc, Micky van de Ven going from maligned to one of the league's best, Djed Spence playing through a broken jaw, the man of the match debate, and the winger problem Spurs have to solve this summer. The full five-Originals season audit follows on Tuesday.

One point keeps us in the Premier League. The biggest game of our season is Sunday — and our captain has chosen to be in Argentina. The Originals previews Spurs v Everton — a final-day survival game — off the back of Roberto De Zerbi's press conference. Jim is joined by Si, back in the UK, and Stu in a 42-degree Dubai. And we open with a thank you, because we've passed 10,000 subscribers. We get into what's at stake (a point at home and we're safe), what De Zerbi's "I burn, I burn" line actually means once you translate the Italian, and the team news — Solanke and Maddison available, and whether either should start. We talk through how De Zerbi sets Spurs up, why Everton having nothing to play for might not help us, David Moyes openly wanting to send us down, Djed Spence's England call-up, and the keeper question De Zerbi flatly refused to answer. Then the big one: Cristian Romero, in Argentina for his boyhood club's final rather than our survival game. We go through "I'm not stupid", the telling "until now", the Ben Davies contrast — and the bigger question of who should captain this club next, and why it probably shouldn't simply be Maddison. Plus your member questions, "I miss Captain Sonny" and whether we let Son go a year too soon, our final-day score predictions, and a loan watch on Mikey Moore's outstanding season at Rangers. The Originals is the panel show from Oh So Spurs — higher-quality, more nuanced Tottenham content from fans who've lived every minute of this season. Smarter than the angry-pundit register, but still nervous supporters at heart.

Spurs lost 2-1 at Chelsea — and A Licensed Coach JJ is calmer about it than most. This is the tactical post-mortem: how we conceded, what actually went wrong, and the gameplan to survive the final day against Everton. This episode of A Coach's View is a collaboration between Oh So Spurs and JJ's own channel, The Full Co. Jim and JJ get into the Kolo Muani right-wing debate, the first goal broken down properly — why it wasn't just the keeper, and the "circle of half mistakes" that led to Enzo's strike — the quality gap between this Chelsea side and our midfield, the Kolo Muani error that gifted the second, and an honest defence of Richarlison, the man without whom Spurs would have been relegated long ago. Then the bit that matters most: JJ's gameplan for Everton. Be the protagonists, dominate the ball, take control of our own destiny. A point on Sunday keeps Spurs up. A Coach's View is the tactical strand from Oh So Spurs — Jim Goddard with A Licensed Coach JJ, breaking down what's actually happening on the pitch.

Spurs lost 2-1 at Chelsea — but the numbers say we were the better side. 2.15 xG to Chelsea's 1.09, and 67% of the game's big chances. And now the whole season comes down to one game against Everton. Jim is joined on The Originals by Stu in Dubai and Si in Switzerland to pick through a frustrating night at Stamford Bridge and answer a stack of Oso 33 member questions. We get into why the data and the eye test tell completely different stories, the Enzo Fernández screamer and the Kinsky question, the front-three problem and an honest defence of Richarlison, the VAR decisions still baffling us — the Delap elbow, the Cucurella booking that makes no sense — and what fans can realistically do about officiating. Plus the most honest question of the season from Oso 33 member Howard: have Spurs ever stressed you this much, and how are you coping? A point against Everton on Sunday and we're safe.

One point from safety. Eight years since we last won at Stamford Bridge. And Chelsea? Winless in seven, four straight home defeats. Could Tuesday actually be the one? I'm joined on The Originals by Stu in Dubai, Si in Switzerland and Johnny in drizzly Dublin for a Chelsea away preview that, for once in this fixture, doesn't lean on dread. We dig into the maths (one point keeps us up after West Ham's defeat), what De Zerbi said in his press conference — including his flat "no" when asked if a Spurs win would be a "miracle" — and the Italian mentality angle, comparing his approach to Conte's, Frank's and Tudor's. Plus Chelsea's form crisis (winless in seven, two goals in their last seven), the four Brighton lads in the Chelsea XI who came through De Zerbi, and Conor Gallagher returning to his old club — Si has called him for man of the match. Romero, Maddison, Tel and the keeper question all covered too. Listener questions: Linda on whether supporter culture actually changes after this season, the Jonathan / Roston debate on whether we really need a deep-lying playmaker or whether it's a unicorn position, and Danny on whether the directors have learned anything from this season's drama.

1-1 with Leeds at home. The fifth home game this season we've taken the lead and dropped points. And now Chelsea away on Tuesday — eight years since the last time we won a league game at the Bridge. Could this finally be the one? I'm joined on The Originals by our ray of sunshine Stu in Dubai, Si over in Switzerland, and a brilliant guest — Jason McGovern from Last Word on Spurs. We get into what actually happened against Leeds (Tel's first De Zerbi-era goal, the Richarlison miss, the overhead-kick decision that gifted Leeds their penalty), the five-game De Zerbi trajectory — 8 points from 5, xGA halved, the direction is genuinely up — and the home pattern that won't go away. Then Linda's brilliant question on the tumor of negativity pressing on the soul of this club, and why so much Spurs content goes nuclear after every result. And the big one — Chelsea away. Eight years at Stamford Bridge. Andy's question on how De Zerbi exorcises the demon. Roston's case for positivity. And whether this group, mostly recruited in the last two windows, even carries the scar tissue the previous lot did. Plus your listener questions — Maddison usage, Kolo Muani vs Spence, the penalty drought, and how on earth we're planning to celebrate when we stay up.

Aston Villa, fifth in the league, didn't manage a single 0.00 of xG against us in the entire first half. Zero. A Licensed Coach JJ joins me to break down exactly how this Spurs team strangled Aston Villa for 45 minutes at Villa Park, and what Roberto De Zerbi has actually changed in four games. We get into the press, why the team has been so deliberately slowed down, why Pedro Porro is staying rooted as a full-back for now, why Bentancur and Palhinha suddenly look like a working double pivot when they didn't under Frank, and the bit JJ wanted to jump up and down screaming "I told you so" about. Plus the press-baiting concept properly explained — what it is, why it's hard to do at home, and why Villa were patient enough not to take the bait. PPDA, xGA, the metrics that matter and the ones that don't. The Buendía corner that Van de Ven won't enjoy watching back. And why the set-piece defending is a slower fix than the rest. For the Oso 33 crew sticking to the end — JJ on a question we got asked: why do so many number 10s become great number 6s? JJ takes us through it from his own playing days. It's a lovely bit. A Coach's View is the tactical strand from Oh So Spurs — Jim Goddard with A Licensed Coach JJ, dissecting what's actually happening on the pitch with Tottenham Hotspur week to week.

Villa Park. Fifth in the league. But they had zero xG in the first half. Zero. And we were two goals up. It was, it was special. A full-house Originals panel back together for this one — Johnny over in beautiful Dublin, Si in Switzerland, our ray of sunshine Stu in Dubai, and DJ in sunny California — for a proper reaction to Aston Villa 1–2 Spurs at Villa Park and the four games of De Zerbi so far. We've had this conversation every three months, haven't we? But is this one different? Please tell us it's different. So we get into the data (xG against nearly halved, pressing up vs both Frank and Tudor, the back four launching the build-up), the lads who look like completely different players under De Zerbi (Gallagher, Van de Ven, Palhinha, Bentancur, Kinsky), and even Stu's allowing himself to get a little bit excited for once. Plus your questions — the Roberto-wan-Kenobi one (do we give the club credit for landing him?), whether we've got any transfer window pull despite no Europe, who stays if we stay up, the Maddison-vs-Leeds debate, and frankly the best listener question of the lot: is this De Zerbi run actually the best pre-pre-season a new manager could ask for?
