Last Word On Spurs

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by George Achillea, Billie T and Ian Lubin as the panel react to the news that Xavi Simons has torn his ACL and will be out for the rest of the season with Tottenham. Simons became the fifth Tottenham player to pick up an ACL or knee injury to keep them out for 12 months since February 2025. We discuss our genuine concerns and delve deeper into the injury crisis that is surrounding Tottenham Hotspur. We also debate whether the home pitch and training pictures are factor in addition to the rehabilitation protocol the players are instructed to go through from the Medical Staff at the Club. Of course the conversation naturally turns to what this does in our battle to remain in the Premier League and whether Roberto De Zerbi can perform one of the best ever Premier League ‘Great Escapes’ given the limited numbers at his disposal and games running out to save Spurs.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Broadcaster Russ Williams, Jason McGovern and Marlon as our first Premier League win of 2026 arrived at Molineux on Saturday thanks to Joao Palhinha’s late goal. The panel discuss what a huge goal it might prove to be in our fight against relegation. The midfielder stepped off the bench to convert from close range with eight minutes remaining to score the only goal of a tense and scrappy game against Wolverhampton Wanderers and give us a massive confidence boost ahead of our remaining four matches. We also reflect on a stunning last-gasp save from Antonin Kinsky to keep out Joao Gomes’ free-kick in the dying seconds to ensure victory – one that was so important considering all the teams above us all won as well. It means we remain third from bottom, but this could be the start of our revival. We finally reflect on the concerning injuries to both Dominic Solanke and Xavi Simons and the consistent pattern of injuries we seem to be occurring in addition to touching on the refereeing decisions happening both during our games and elsewhere.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jonathan Hammé, Gary Ward and TJ Ramini as we discuss the do or die for Tottenham in their battle to stay in the Premier League, and they have another must-win game on their hands this weekend when they take on Wolves. We discuss the sheer size of the game and task at hand for Tottenham, the team news in which Roberto De Zerbi confirmed Spurs will be without Destiny Udogie, Guglielmo Vicario and Pape Matar Sarr for Saturday’s game against Wolverhampton Wanderers. Head coach Roberto De Zerbi also confirmed that James Maddison will be included in the squad but is unlikely to feature. The panel also discussed the news that Sebastian Kehl is now the leading candidate for a role as Tottenham’s new director. Spurs’ board want him to rebuild the team alongside Johan Lange. Kehl’s career as a top player, his management skills and his extensive international network are highly valued within the club and during the conversations. We also touch-upon the news that Marcos Senesi have reached an agreement in principle. With the 28-year old top centre-back giving his commitment to join Spurs on a free transfer in the summer, if Tottenham stay in the Premier League. We finally close on the scale of the game at Molineux and how nothing but a win will do for Spurs in their battle to retain their Premier League status.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Actor Darren Hart, Musician Jah Wobble and Jamie Brown from The Daily Hotspur as we reflect on West Ham drawing 0-0 to Crystal Palace to go two points ahead of Tottenham in the battle to stay in the Premier League. Wolves have been relegated to the Championship after eight seasons in the Premier League, ahead of their fixture with Spurs at the Molineux on the weekend. Many viewed West Ham’s opportunity as the chance to smash a first nail in Tottenham’s coffin, but instead they let the hammer slip through their fingers like sand, the panel debate whether West Ham’s dropped points has given Spurs fresh impetus in the battle to survive relegation. West Ham have still got Everton, Brentford, Arsenal, Newcastle, and Leeds, a run-in which Opta say is one of the toughest in the division, we look at all the relegation contenders final run-in and ask the question can Roberto De Zerbi compete the great escape for Spurs.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, George Achillea and Billie T as we go into a fresh week where Nottingham Forest beat Burnley to move five points clear of Tottenham. Aston Villa also beat Sunderland 4-3 so they can mathematically secure Champions League before playing Spurs, with Europa League semi-final ties days before + after game. We reflect on a wider length of where that Wolves result leaves us, if there is anyway we can survive and how Wolves away on Saturday can leave no room for error in a game that three points is an absolute must and needing favours from teams elsewhere to survive the drop.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Broadcaster Russ Williams, Luke and Marlon as Tottenham Hotspur’s Premier League survival hopes were hit by a crushing 95th-minute Georginio Rutter equaliser as in-form Brighton left Spurs languishing in the relegation zone by grabbing a 2-2 draw. In what was Roberto De Zerbi’s first home game in charge as our Head Coach – coincidentally against his former side – we took a 2-1 lead into the final stages thanks to a truly stunning Xavi Simons curler in the 77th minute and looked to be holding on until Georginio Rutter smashed home from just inside the area to snatch away the win. Spurs will now spend another week in the bottom three as we discuss where the result leaves Spurs in our battle to retain our Premier League status along with whether Xavi Simons can potentially provide the critical spark in keeping Spurs in the division. Simons' goal had looked like it would be the turning point in Spurs' battle for Premier League survival. A moment of wild celebration to launch from. Instead, their failure to get over the line and win has amplified the feeling this team is only going one way, as we reflect the continued individual errors that plagued our season, meaning that a win at Premier League bottom club Wolves next weekend is now essential.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, Darren Hart and Gary Ward as we reflect on Roberto De Zerbi knowing what the Tottenham Hotspur experience is all about after a crazy first week in charge. The Italian only took the helm last week yet within days Spurs fell into the bottom three without a ball being kicked, that was just after losing Mohammed Kudus for the rest of the campaign due to a set-back in his rehabilitation through injury. De Zerbi then lost his first game at Sunderland with Nordi Mukiele's deflected effort deciding the encounter and Cristian Romero injuring medial collateral ligament meaning he will miss the remainder of the season. We discuss where we are in the battle for survival as Spurs remain two points behind in-form West Ham United. Three behind Nottingham Forest. And desperately in need of a league win — something they have not achieved since December. Tottenham Hotspur defender Cristian Romero will miss five to eight weeks with a knee injury, meaning he will miss the remainder of the season for Spurs. However, the 27-year-old’s World Cup dream very much remains alive, and he will have time to get fit to start for Argentina. We debate if he has already played his last game in a Spurs shirt. We close on being united around the fact that the Brighton home game has become similar to our most recent Premier League home matches, one of the most important in our modern-day history in our battle to retain our Premier League status.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Compère Richard Cracknell, Broadcaster Marcus Buckland and Billie T as Roberto de Zerbi’s first game in charge ended in defeat at Sunderland as we fell to a seventh loss in eight league games. Appointed two weeks ago following the departure of Igor Tudor, the Italian was unable to change our immediate fortunes as he made his debut as our Head Coach, seeing his new side go down to a narrow 1-0 reverse thanks to a heavily deflected goal from Nordi Mukiele just after the hour mark. We discuss De Zerbi’s team selection and tactical decisions taken in the game and what he would have learnt ahead of a reunion against his former side Brighton next week. The panel also debate with only six games remaining and Spurs’ Premier League survival hopes no longer in their hands, whether the players can mentally cope under the pressure and drag us out of this relegation battle as we sit, 18th in the table. Two points below West Ham United in 17th and three points below Nottingham Forest in 16th position. All three teams have six games left to play. We also touch-upon the refeering display from Rob Jones as Cristian Romero, Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro were all cautioned by referee Jones in the first-half, meanwhile Brian Brobbey, who swung an arm in the direction of Pedro Porro during a tussle and pushed Cristian Romero into Antonín Kinský which resulted in the keeper having to wear a head bandage for the remainder of the game and Romero in tears as he came off with a suspected medial collateral ligament (MCL) injury, remained on the field unpunished.

Host Ricky Sacks and co-host Billie T are joined by former Tottenham Hotspur player and Football Advisor Ramon Vega in this feature edition of the show, as Ramon offers us his first-hand experiences of psychologically what it is like for a player having to cope in the midst of a relegation battle to draw comparisons to what the current crop of players would be going through this season at Spurs. We discuss the decision-making that has led to Spurs being in the position they are in this season, as Ramon offers us his own personal insight on what he has made overall of the turbulent nature of the overall campaign, and whether the players can now solely find a way mentally to pull Tottenham out of the difficult position they find themselves in, under the remaining 7 games with Roberto De Zerbi installed as the third head-coach of the season.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by David Harris, Ian Lubin and TJ Ramini as the third managerial era of the 2025/26 Tottenham Hotspur season is about to commence, as Roberto De Zerbi makes his second Premier League debut on Sunday, away to Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. We discuss Roberto De Zerbi's first pre-match press conference in which he boldly states he knows his first mission is to keep Tottenham in the Premier League but believes the club has everything to challenge for the title in the future. We also reflect on a week which has seen Mohammed Kudus could miss the rest of the season in a major blow to new Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi. Kudus has been out since the start of January with a quad injury, but had begun to ease his way back into training before the international break. Kudus had not missed a single game through injury for West Ham but could potentially miss half of his first season at their north London rivals. It was hoped he would be in contention to face Sunderland this weekend in De Zerbi’s first game in charge. However, Spurs have confirmed that Kudus could be set to undergo surgery, ruling him out of Spurs’ final seven games of the season and casting his World Cup hopes with Ghana into doubt. We debate the icompetence shown by current Sporting Director Johan Lange in which Spurs had the chance to reinforce their squad in the January transfer window, despite the difficulties involved in that market, but only brought through the door a midfielder in Conor Gallagher and 19-year-old left-back Souza, while selling last season's top scorer Brennan Johnson just days before Kudus first suffered his serious quad injury. Unfortunately, of the long-term players out when Lange made those comments ahead of the trip to face Manchester United in early February, Kudus, James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Rodrigo Bentancur and Ben Davies all remain side-lined two months later and were added to a week after by Wilson Odobert. Therefore once again raising concern over the medical rehabilitation of players. The panel also reflect news that Tottenham Hotspur are in pole position to sign Andy Robertson as a free agent this summer, subject to retaining their Premier League status and a price has been set for reported goalkeeper target James Trafford. We finally close on our thoughts of Sunderland, given the fact that The Black Cats are running the risk of losing four straight home league games for the first time since September 2017 in the Championship, and their shoddy Stadium of Light sequence has contributed to their bottom-half ranking in the Premier League table, although they are still within touching distance of seventh-placed Brentford at the time of writing.
