This is the Football Daily podcast with Katie Smith. Tottenham have announced that they've sacked Igor Tudor after just seven games in charge. He took just the single point from his five Premier League games. They sit 17th in the table, just one point.

outside the relegation zone with seven games to play. In a statement that the club released a little earlier, we can confirm. They say that it has been mutually agreed for head coach Igor Tudor to leave the club with immediate effect. Tramislav Rogic and Ricardo Ragnachi have also left their respective roles of goalkeeping coach and physical coach.

We thank them for their efforts during the past six weeks in which they worked tirelessly. We also acknowledge the bereavement that Igor has recently suffered and send our support to him and his family at this difficult time. An update on a new head coach will be provided in due course.

Well, here's how those 44 days played out. Igor Tudor, meanwhile, has agreed a deal to become Tottenham's interim head coach. That is until the end of the season. Gesson forward for Crystal Palace. The Strand last, tries a little flick off the sari. He's in the penalty area.

Goes down, claims he was being pulled back by Van de Venn. He's given a penalty. Oh, I'm not sure about that. There's a... Oh, Vandarvans been sent off. Vicario is now going to come on, and Kinski is having to run off the field, and his tournament teammates have all come across to him, and shown Kinski some supporting here,

but that for him, that is a humiliation. Like everything in life, you can choose how to see the situation, so you can stay and cry, or you can fight. You can be the victim, or you can say I can change something. The full-time whistle goes here in the Metropolitano, and Athletical Madrid supporters celebrate wildly but this has been a nightmare for Tottenham. Tottenham mistake after Tottenham mistake

Atlago Madrid goal after goal it went 1-0, 2-0, 3-0, 4-0 in the end the score line of 5 to the tights long gone. Breakout wide to Williams, Wings under the controls, sweeps his rightfully cross, and 1-0-3-0 to Nottingham Forest in a game that Tottenham had to win And the Totten fans flood out.

Tottenham a beaten side yet again at this majestic stadium, a stadium that could host Championship football next season. Yeah, that's Igor Tudor for you though. Mr. Negative. That's why he plays a five at the bat. He is Mr. Negative.

I don't have nothing really positive to say about it. Listen to the Tockland booze and even then, even those, booze was sort of half-artic as most of the fans have gone and Tollam Hots were here have sunk deep, deep, deep, deep back into trouble Well, joining us now, the BBC senior football correspondent, Sammy Mockbell,

and our football correspondent John Murray and Sammy. I suppose after that catastrophic 3-0 loss to Nottingham Forest, their big relegation rivals down at the bottom of the table, sort of left spurs with nowhere to go on this one. Correct, yeah, the right-ins been on the wall now for at least seven days. But Tottenham, I've had to be aware and be cautious. moving forward because of the sensitivities of Igua Tudor's father dying

and he found out the news immediately after the game against Nottingham Forest last week so while that decision effectively had been made it's taken and I think rightly so I think it was a right decision I think they've let some some time pass between the bereavement and actually making the decision official with an announcement

but obviously we're a week on now. Players will start to filter back from international duty over the next coming day. So they've basically clarified that situation today. Ego Tudor is no longer the Tottenham head coach and they will now move on to who will be their third head coach of the current season. Yeah, and we're going to get into that, of course.

The understanding is that assistant coach Bruno Sautil is going to take training, with the few players that are still at the training ground at the moment. Of course, we're on international break. The plan is to appoint a new head coach in the coming days, as you say, Sammy. The clubs say that they expect to have someone new in place when the players return from their respective nations. That gives them then approximately 10 days to prepare for Sunderland away.

That's the next Premier League game on the 12th of April. What this can't hide is just what a catastrophic mess the club are in right now. Look, it's not ideal. The season, particularly off the back of last season, winning the Europa League in those sort of heady scenes in Bilbaugh last May, in comparison to where they are now in the Premier League, facing relegation, 17th place, one point adrift of the bottom three.

No one could ever have foreseen this happening. and it's just a situation that, you know, it beggars belief really. Tottenham are a global brand. They're a club that are synonymous with, but potentially not in terms of winning silverware on a regular basis. But they are a club and a brand that are known all over the world. So for them to be in this situation, as you say, it's a total mess. And I wonder, John, then, how far we need to try and travel back here to find the heart of this crisis?

Because I think it seems this toxic environment at the club was definitely here before Ego Tudor walked through the doors. Yes, they've tried to be as respectful as they can after the death of his father. And they do acknowledge that in the statement today. But I think the word was just inevitable that it would come to this point. And it does feel like it is just a number. the desperate act by Tottenham in a season that has turned into a proper crisis for them. You know, it feels a little bit, doesn't it? Like they're thrashing around in the deep water, desperately trying to cling on to some

part of the wreckage that's going to keep them afloat. It was not, it was patently not Igor Tudor. But, you know, there is that, as you say, Katie, there is that it's not just what's happened this season, you always have to underline the fact that they finished 17th last season as well, just above the relegation zone, even though, you know, the three who went down last season, there was a big gap between them. But last season, under Postercoglu, it felt very often like a runaway train, didn't it? It was like boom and bust. And, you know, they hoped for stability this season. I think that was the idea, really, with Thomas Frank, to try and build some

saying, as it's turned out, they're going to be onto their third manager of this season, and you still have that boom and bust. And they have got seven matches to save their Premier League lives. It is a desperate situation. We're going to get the fans' perspective, Sammy, but the negativity at the club just feels overwhelming. I mean, as John said, through the Thomas Frank phase of the season, if you like, but long before that with Poster Coglu.

It's toxic. at the moment, particularly at home, certainly through Thomas Frank's reign, the Tottenham Potspur Stadium was not a happy place. They appointed Ibor Tudor with a view to changing that narrative, right? Because he's got this, as we all know now, he's got this reputation of making an instant impact at clubs when he arrives. And obviously, Vinay of Venetheum,

the CEO at Tottenham and the sporting director in Johann Lang identified him and given the situation that Tottenham were in with regards to slumping down the table, they identified him and saw his track record of helping clubs in that kind of situation. They saw him as almost a perfect candidate. He just hasn't turned out that way. And I think what this appointment certainly does, it does shine a spotlight,

on Vinayvanketian and Johann Lang and it wouldn't surprise me if the owners of Tottenham Hotspur are looking at certainly the appointment of of Igor Tudor and asking, well, why did that go so horribly wrong? But in terms of the supporters, I think, you know, they...

I don't think any of them believe that they would be in this situation this season. I think a lot of Tottenham fans are, realistic and then they probably knew they weren't going to be fighting for a top four, top five place this season, but they would have thought they'd have been at least comfortably mid-table. So for them, you know, you feel for the supporters, certainly the matchgoing supporters. And now, as we've, right, you know, reading said, they are facing up to trying to support their third manager of a season. And for a club, the size of time. And for a club, the size of

Tottenham and with the resources of Tottenham is poor, really. Yeah. And also, Katie, there is churned not just in the manager's job. You know, they're trying to, Daniel Levy, obviously, it's not such a long time since he left the club. They've got a new structure at the top of the club trying to put together a leadership team. They appointed a new director of football operations in January, Rafi Morrison. When they did that, in the club's statement, it said,

This is part of an approach to build a modern, high-performance football structure to drive long-term success. Now, where they are now feels like a massive counter to that, doesn't it? And that's why I think that, you know, people, Tottenham fans, football fans, will have read what the talk is of who it might be, who will be brought in. And I mean, you are looking at the widest possible range of possibilities. in terms of whether it's someone from abroad, people who've been already managing in the Premier League, people with former Tottenham connections. And, you know, I can tell you that I've heard

that it is almost a case of all possibilities are being considered, including some really radical options. And to go back to the crisis analogy, it is almost that they're thinking of any port in a storm. You know, they're looking for whatever it is, short one. never mind the long term, they're looking for the short term that will just keep them up. That's it, in one point above the relegation zone. I think they're going to have to.

Let's bring in former Spurs goalkeeper Brad Friedel, who's with us as well. Brad, before we get into who might be potentially replacing Igor Tudor, just your reaction to the news? I think after the forest game, although I hate seeing this merry go round of managers, especially at Tottenham, thought it was inevitable. but this is how do I put it? If someone I respect the most in football, and I can't say his name,

he actually said something. It takes over a decade, maybe longer, to build something up at a football club, and it takes less than two years of bad decisions to break it all down. And he's absolutely correct. And I think Daniel Levy was starting to get power taken away from him even previous to last season.

I think it's the Lewis family that has the money. Daniel Levy's job was to try to create revenue sources to then be able to spend the money. If the money isn't there from the actual owner's pocket, you have to spend the money that is there based on revenues coming in and you have a man, albeit a manageable debt on the stadium, but it's still a debt that has to be serviced. He saw Arsenal's troubles when they were, you know,

their downturn and form and the players that they could purchase when they were going through. Stadium. But I've said this many, many times now. Be careful what you wish for. I'm pushing somebody out like Daniel Levy. In my, whatever it was, 23-year career, I think the two best boards that I ever played for and chairman, Daniel Levy was one of them, and then John Williams and Ton Finn performing on behalf of the Walker Trust at Blackburn when I was there. I thought they were outstanding. So I don't think there's any possible way that they would be in this situation if Daniel Levy was still pulling on the purse strings.

Now, with that, we can talk about that. That's in the past. That's in the hindsight. That's in hindsight. And now we have to talk about what's best going forward. And it is a mismash. It is any, nobody's right. Nobody's wrong right now.

Do you bring in a Ryan Mason? Do you bring in a Harry Rednapp? Do you bring in a Tim Sherwood? Do you bring in a Glenn Hoddle? Or if you could get to Zerbey, would he take over the club right now? but if you bring in to Zerby, you're going to have to put them on a long-term contract.

What happens if they relegate? Do you get someone just to the end of the season? If you do relegate, well, then I would probably go for Scott Parker and I'd probably go for Sean Deich because they're proven track records of getting back into the Premier League. It's just crazy that club that brings in 560 plus million in revenue,

we're talking about relegation. Well, so, okay, so a lot to get stuck into there, Brad. I mean, interesting your take then on Daniel Levy, so you're suggesting, I mean, there'll be a lot of Totten fans who will veer. I'd legitimately disagree with you there about where the club might be if he still at. No problem. No problem. I was at the club. I negotiated my own contracts with Daniel. I know how he operates.

I think the criticism, if you want, of Daniel was maybe he wouldn't take the risks associated or fight for the risks with the Lewis family associated to getting to first in the Premier League or second in the Premier League. but that's tough that is really difficult to do to break into the wage structures of of Liverpool and man united and arsenal and man city and he would he had one foot in the door and that he got you know the the revenue that he brings in the stadium he built the training facility and that he built is is incredible so if you want to have be critical of of that I would say maybe you know looking back on it you know maybe maybe he would should have kept Maricio at the time because they had a really good relationship working together.

But it's really hard to run a football club and get every single decision right. My point is that they wouldn't be a point above relegation right now. And if they were mid-table, Daniel Levy would be getting screamed at. Don't get me wrong. You know, the fans would be livid,

even with mid-table, but they would not be fighting off relegation. That's my point. Yeah, and Sammy, actually, that's key, isn't it? That relative stability and growth that they had under Daniel Levy. the problem that they're having to stab in the dark now is that that has all been ripped away

and it just feels like there is no sense of structure and stability is probably the key word. That feels like it's gone right now. Right. And the message emanating out of the club for the past, really for the past six months, maybe longer following the departure of Daniel Levy has been. We're building structures. We'll be building for the future. But I think when you're building for the future, certainly from this perspective and top,

Tottenham's perspective, trying to do that when you're at the centre of a wild, wild storm is far easier said than done, virtually impossible. So they're now faced with this situation of trying to build, trying to build structures and a squad and internally for the future, but doing so whilst in the midst of a relegation fire. That, you know, that's virtually impossible. Because one, you know, you don't know what league you're going to be playing in next season. And with that comes so many difficulties. For example, my understanding is they would like to appoint Roberto Deserbie as permanent head coach. And he would be at the very top of their list.

And I think over the course of the past two or three weeks, they've tried to make that happen and engage and try to find out and ascertain whether he would be. prepared to do that immediately. I think what they've come back or what they've heard of what they've found is he would be open to replacing Eagle Tudor as Tottenham head coach, but only at the end of the season, i.e. when he knows what league they're going to be playing in. Which is understandable, right, Brad?

Absolutely. The predicament is the most important thing is staying in the league. the long-term solution and the long-term building of the club, you can't really take place until you know whether you're building from the championship or you're going to try to rebuild from the Premier League. And there's not a lot of top quality, like real long-term visionary head coaches that would jump into this job right now unless they had a break clause if they relegated in the summer.

And then is that good for the club to bring in another manager and have to release them after seven? after seven games. So you're almost stuck into a position where you need to bring in a short-term replacement. And now, if you're talking about someone like Sean Dice, I have an incredible amount of respect for, I'm not so sure. I think Tottenham fans would welcome him right now with open arms to try to save the club from relegation. But I'm not so sure that they would welcome Sean Dyshe on a long-term basis because they would fear

that they're not going to play attacking free-flowing football. And by the way, I think if you gave Sean Dice a bigger budget, his football would be a little bit different on the field. But I think the stigma is that he would be more of a negative head coach. So I'm not sure if the fans would accept Sean Dyshe other than on a short-term basis. So then someone as good as he is, would he come in for seven games knowing that it's over in the summer? That would be a trick as well. So now you're going down to, I'm sure, Glenn Hoddle would help out the club. I'm sure Tim Sherwood would help out the club.

and I know Harry Rednapp has openly said that he would help out the club. So is that going to get you over the line to get the points needed to stay up? It is a crazy situation. The board room will have all these permutations, and it's really difficult to have the answers, really difficult at this stage. And of course, one of the long term, if you put it in inverted commas, popular choices,

would be to go back to Mauritio Pocitino. You know, there is still a clamor for that among Tottenham. supporters. And if you remember a couple of weeks ago, when we went to Madrid, there was the story at the time of Mauritio Pocetino traveling in his role as the USA coach to watch one of the Real Madrid, one of the Athletical Madrid players. He was on the plane with the Tottenham fans who were making it very clear to him that they wanted him to come back. But again, that poses problems because it depends how far the USA go at the World Cup. And are you really going to wait until that point in order to get the structure together and again, you know, where will Tottenham be?

They will have to be in the Premier League for Muratio Pocetino to even consider that. And don't forget towards the end of his time, when they did have that stability over five years in charge, that all unraveled towards the end because he didn't get the investment and the club he felt were unwilling to take the next step to see. a Tottenham team challenge for the Premier League title. And Brad, I mean, you've mentioned names like Harry Radnapp, like Glenn Hoddle, Tim Sherwood. Yes, they could. And maybe they would be, you know, nostalgic, popular choices.

But should and could, I mean, can they literally do it? Is that not just the biggest sign of desperation from the club that they would turn to someone like Harry Radnapp who has been almost 10 years out of managerial work? Well, it is desperate and they are in a desperate situation. as we sit here today. I think somebody like Harriet played for Harriet Tottenham. I think someone like him could do very similar what Martin O'Neill did up at Celtic

on the short-term basis, especially to stabilize the club. I think long-term is not the solution, but to go in and try to instill some confidence in the players because something that Harry would do, Harry gives responsibility to the players, not a lot of meetings. There's not a lot of

there's not a lot of off-field mentality days. You know, it's very much, this is your role, this is your job on the field. We need to pick up the points. Give the players that can express themselves in the attacking part of the field. Please express yourself.

The other players do all the dirty work. I mean, it's very simplified. And I think these players right now are so low on confidence that they could do with a little bit of sarcasm, a little bit of uplifting, but also someone that has no problem if someone doesn't shake their hand, like letting them, you know, giving them some discipline as well. But we are in desperate times right now. And it's hard with seven games from the end of the season, not knowing

if you're going to stay in the league to sign somebody who's going to go on a four and a half year contract or a three and a half year contract thinking I'm going to be the guy that's going to get this club back up into the Champions League places. That's a tough. That's a tough place for someone to see. So I could understand fully if they've had these discussions with Deserby, why he would want to take over in the summer and not take over right now. We should just say as well, we did get in touch with Harry Rednapp to see if he wanted to be involved with this.

He responded he didn't want to get involved with the program. I just wonder, John, though, if we sort of take it back to Igor Tudor, then we've talked about the wider problems and the far-ranging problems at the club. But him himself, I mean, there was a lot said about the character of him. particularly, I think, in contrast to Thomas Frank. And actually, interestingly, what Brad's saying there about what a Harry Rednapp character might have been like, particularly, you know, when you try and fire up a group of players

with a minimal amount of time to get the job done. How much blame can we lay at the door of Igor Tudor then in terms of the decisions he made and his man management through his 44 days? Well, frankly, I wouldn't blame him, because if you get the opportunity to come and manage in the Premier League and to manage Tottenham, you're not going to turn it down, aren't you? And, you know, anyone at that level will back themselves. And he's been in a position at big clubs. And as we know, he has pulled off rescue operations. But, you know, right from the

very outset, I commented on the North London Derby, when he might seem to, I mean, I saw him doing things in the warm up. I don't think I've ever seen any other manager do in the Premier League. And I know Yergan Klopp used to stand in the middle of the pitch. But Igor Tudor was right involved in the warm-up. And I remember watching them, they were going through set pieces, defending, attacking set pieces. He was in the penalty area as they were doing that.

And I think also what he, the way that he spoke, pre-match, post-match, you know, it didn't, it didn't, along with the results, all of that just did not really send out the message of confidence that he was the man who was,

going to be able to turn this around. But, you know, let's not forget that was a panic button. And now, now we're reaching for the bat phone, aren't they? Well, I do wonder, Brad, just a final thought from you on this. And particularly perhaps from a goalkeeper's perspective, how he handled the Kinski moment against the Thetkao, Madrid, brought him off after 17 minutes. I mean, it was tough viewing.

And I just wonder, confidence-wise, in a group that are already struggling to have moments like that with a manager who is dealing with you like that and sort of publicly as well. I can only imagine it's pretty tough. I think that shows the pressure of the job and the chaos that's surrounding Tottenham right now. It was a really strange decision to take out your number one who has been struggling this season in a Champions League match away from home and make the change. So that's decision number one that's really difficult.

And then one of the goals was the goalkeeper's mistake. One was a genuine slip. The other one wasn't his fault. and then you take them off after 17 minutes, but you have a discussion with Romero and the sidelines. Everything was, for me, bizarre, because you've not only upset the number one by putting them out, you've now upset the number two is going to be low on confidence,

and then you have to bring Bacario back in as the number one, and you have two goalkeepers now very uncertain going forward into these must-win matches towards the end of the season. By all accounts, Vicario has, a little bit of a hernia issue or something, an issue that I've read. So is he going to be fully fit from now to the end of the season? And if he isn't, you're going to need Kinski.

So that was a very strange decision to watch as an ex-coalkeeper. Brad, Brad, thank you. Cheers, great to get perspective there. Former Spurs goalkeeper Brad Friedel. We're going to bring in a Tottenham fan now. Emma, Notting us, Emma, what do you reckon then? Hello.

Do you know what? It's best bit of news I've had all day because I don't think he was right for us from the get-go. When he got announced, I was like, oh, okay, never managed in the Premier League. It's a tough gig anyway. You need somebody with Premier League experience.

You can't just bring somebody in from the outside who's never played in the toughest league in the world. So, Emma, how much blame are you putting at the door of Igor Tudor versus just maybe the state of the club? I don't know how much of what we've been talking about, You've heard there, but it, I think, is kind of widely felt that the problems are much further reaching. Yeah, it's not his fault. You know, at the end of the day, like has been said, you know, somebody comes knocking on your door saying,

John and I managed Tottenham, you're going to take it. It's a good gig. But, unfortunately, you need to play a certain way. And we just want that way. There's no if-butts about it. I think the hierarchy have got to take some of the blame. It's been coming for a wide. It's gone back to when Potch was on about this beautiful house.

We need the investment. We don't seem to get that. So fair play to I go for coming in and trying, but it just wasn't the right gig for him. And then obviously his father's passed away. So send him his condolences and, you know, moving forward to him up, he gets another job somewhere when the time's right. But he just wasn't the right fit for us.

Emma, I'm just on the back of your answer. You said there about you want to talk about, you want your Tottenham teams to play a certain way. So just heading into the final seven games of the season, would you accept, for example, someone like Sean Dyshu would get you organised, wouldn't necessarily play the most expansive, positive football that you would probably want from your Tottenham team.

Would you accept that if he was to keep you in the Premier League? I don't even think Sean Daj could save us, to be honest with you. They need a boost. I would definitely maybe call Harry. I really do think Harry needs to be the man. But I also think maybe Pochitino should just come home. And I think we should go and get him now because then he's got these seven games. I know it's World Cup over summer.

But I do think we need to unite the fans and the club as a whole, we need to bring Potch back to finish the job. But he started all them years ago. I think he is the man. who we're all crying out for. Emma, thanks for your time. And I guess we should say best of luck for those seven fixtures to come.

Yeah. Fingers crossed, day. That was a sign of half. Emma Nottsch at Spurs fan. Sammy, Spurs have 14 days until their next match. We mentioned that. Sunderland away. Then it is Brighton at home,

wolves away, Astinville away, Leeds at home, Chelsea away and Everton at home on the final day of the season. I mean, it is proper crunch time. Yeah, there are no easy games. We know that in the Premier League. But certainly when you're stuck in a rut in the way that Topham

have been over the past, I guess since the turn of the year, getting out of that rut is very, very difficult. Particularly when you're coming off an international break and they haven't got a game next weekend because they're out of the FA Cup. So, yeah, you're right. It is crunch time, but they've got the squad. They've got an experienced squad. These are seasoned international players.

It's not like they're duds. But for whatever reason, they just haven't performed this season. And I do think that speaks to the kind of character that I think they should look to a point to replace Igor Tudor. I don't think they've got the time to necessarily appoint a manager who, that a candidate won't have time to put in tactical structures into the team. it will simply be a point of trying to get these players up for it and galvanise for the final seven games of the season.

Yeah, yeah. Who that character is, you know, they've got options. If they could do Roberto de Zerbe, they will do that. But if they can't, then I think they may look to someone who has connections to and historic connections to the club. Well, and John, just a final thought then from you. I mean, 1977, that's almost 50 years the last time Spurs were relegated from the top flight.

They're one of the great clubs of English football. They're a point from potentially dropping to the championship. Yeah, as Jonathan Pierce was saying in the commentary on Five Live, a couple of last Sunday afternoon, for Tottenham Hot Spur to be in the championship, but also for that stadium to be a championship venue is for the club absolutely unthinkable. And whichever way they go,

whoever they appoint, and particularly, I think, if it is a rabble rouser, someone with those connections to Tottenham. I mean, for good mistake, I've even heard suggestions that they might put a couple of the current players in charge, which I feel, I mean, I cannot envisage that that would be a possibility. But if it's a Harry Redner, if it's a Glenn Haudel, and I've even heard talk that Osir Delas could be involved if they're able to, you know, depending on which way they go. If it's one of the whole, I mean, these matches are going to be absolutely box office. So that Sunday, a month, which is on at 2 o'clock, Sunday the 12th of April,

it is a five-life commentary, that will be something else. And then the next match, when they play at home, were that to be the way that they go down? You know, that is not to be missed. Well, the countdown is on seven games to go, one point above the drop zone. And today, Tottenham have announced that Eagle Tudor has parted company with the love.
