It all comes down to the final day.
In Episode 100 of Tottenham – Home and Away, Graeme and Glen look back at the Chelsea defeat and preview the huge winner-takes-all final home game against Everton, with Spurs and West Ham both fighting to avoid relegation.
We discuss the frustration of another Stamford Bridge defeat, the decisions that went against Spurs, whether Mathys Tel, James Maddison and Dominic Solanke should start, and why Roberto De Zerbi has been dragged into talking about Cristian Romero when the focus should be on the biggest Spurs match in a generation.
Then we look ahead to Sunday. Spurs only go down if they lose and West Ham win — but with this team, nothing feels simple. Can Spurs get the draw they need? Will the crowd be able to lift the players without adding pressure? And if survival is secured, should attention immediately turn to the board, the owners, and the people responsible for this mess?
For Episode 100, we also take a short trip down memory lane with two Spurs legends from the 100-goal club: Glenn Hoddle and Jermain Defoe. We talk Hoddle’s genius, his goals, his style, his coaching career, and Glen’s personal story of meeting him as a child, before moving on to Defoe’s finishing, his two spells at Spurs, and why he remains such a loved figure at the club.
Thanks to everyone who has listened, watched, subscribed, joined the WhatsApp community, or been part of the podcast so far. Whatever happens next, we’ll keep talking Spurs. Come on you Spurs.
