""I want to enjoy. I'm living a dream and to live a dream you have to enjoy. First of all is to enjoy. Second is to keep the mentality when I was a player. I wanted to be a protagonist on the pitch.""
""To be a protagonist you have to keep the ball, to have the ball. From it starts the ball possession. I was the No.10. You win the game through the No.10, No.11, No.9 and No.7, because they are the players with more quality.""
""Most players who have worked under De Zerbi can vouch that he changed the way they perceived football. His recent track record also reads like the sort of coach Spurs would ordinarily be after.""
Tottenham Hotspur is in a precarious position, sitting just outside the Premier League's relegation zone after seven games under Igor Tudor. The team has yet to secure a win in 2026, and each time they appear to improve, new setbacks arise. In contrast, De Zerbi, known for his maverick managerial style, emphasizes enjoyment and ball possession in football. His philosophy aligns with Tottenham's desire for an engaging style of play, contrasting with the previous management's approach that left fans dissatisfied.
