"I put some runs without the ball. Never players like runs without the ball so we put some runs without balls [into the sessions]. But it's a moment when there is no time to think too much about what somebody doesn't like. And the best thing is that they understand this. So they gave me their availability to do these things."
"Physically, I believe, we are not in an amazing situation. They have played lots of [matches], and the only way out of their current slump is through pure physical exertion and high-intensity pressing, a style he believes is currently impossible to execute given the state of the squad."
Igor Tudor, Tottenham's interim head coach, has introduced a demanding 'shock-and-awe' training regime focused on high-intensity pressing and physical conditioning. Following a 4-1 defeat to Arsenal in his first match, Tudor believes the squad suffers from significant fitness decline and lacks the physical capacity for his tactical approach. He has implemented grueling workouts including runs without the ball, dismissing concerns about player enjoyment. Tudor emphasizes that the club faces a genuine relegation battle and that physical exertion through rigorous training is the only path to improvement. He maintains that players understand the necessity of these methods and have accepted the demanding workload required to escape their current predicament.
