"In Italy, they use the term 'have the mentality of a small team.' That's the key: to always have the willingness and motivation like you play against bigger teams. They are aware of everything. The mentality changes by training. Doing the right things there and to have enough training sessions that you can transmit these things to the team so that on Sunday this can be seen from the fans in the stadium."
"Hard work. There is no other possibility. You need to be smart to understand, deeper the moment and how to take the points."
Igor Tudor, Tottenham's new manager, emphasizes that the club must adopt a small team mentality to escape their relegation crisis. After a 4-1 loss to Arsenal in his debut, Tottenham sits four points above the drop zone with nine consecutive league matches without a win. Tudor stresses that hard work during training sessions is essential to transmit the required mentality to players before their match against Fulham. He believes success requires constant willingness and motivation, similar to how smaller teams approach matches against bigger opponents. Meanwhile, Fulham has recovered from a three-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over Sunderland, moving into the top half and positioning themselves three points behind seventh-place Brentford with European football aspirations.
