Thursdays are for Q&As, your chance to ask serious (or not) questions. And after every match, there’s a solo pod recorded on the final whistle: unfiltered, emotional, and usually involving Jack crying about Ledley King (and now Son Heung-min

2025/10/30

Jack is joined by Billie T in the aftermath of Tottenham’s draw at St James’ Park. There’s a sense of perspective about the result. Spurs were stoic in the face of Newcastle’s quality, but the discussion soon turns to the work still needed in recruitment. The pair chat about Antonín Kinský’s shaky display and whether the calls to replace Vicario were a bit premature, before digging into Xavi Simons’ recent struggles with form. It’s also a listener Q&A, featuring questions like: which 90s Spurs

Spurs being beaten by the better side on the night. Did we learn much from that one? Did Thomas Frank? Is Kinsky ready to take over from Vicario? Who knows... not me.

2025/10/27

Jack is joined by Phil to break down Tottenham’s dominant display away at Everton, from Micky van de Ven’s brace to the growing importance of set-pieces under Thomas Frank. Are Spurs evolving into a more pragmatic, mature side? And what does their efficiency from dead-balls tell us about how football is changing, especially when even Arsenal’s open-play output has dipped despite sitting top of the league?

Spurs have climbed to third in the Premier League after a solid, but strangely unexciting win away at whatever Everton's new stadium is called. The first team to score from a set-piece against Everton, as well as being the first team to beat them at their new ground in the Premier League. Thomas Frank's introduction of Kolo Muani from the beginning was a welcome addition, regardless of the Palhinha x Bentancur double pivot. How good are Spurs? Do we know?

Following Tottenham’s drab 0-0 draw with Monaco, Jack is joined by Dan Louw to ask whether Thomas Frank is really the right man to take Spurs forward. The football’s tough to watch, the results aren’t disastrous, but is it just mediocrity dressed up as progress?They also dig into Xavi Simons’ faltering form, his crisis of confidence, and whether Spurs’ issues can really be solved by new signings or if a change of manager would put Spurs on an upward curve.

Jack is joined by Gavin to break down Tottenham’s defeat to Aston Villa, a result that laid bare the increasingly cautious nature of Thomas Frank’s side. From the conservative midfield of Palhinha and Bentancur to the lack of attacking spark and Xavi Simons’ quiet display, it was another afternoon where control seemed to take priority over creativity. The pair also question whether Spurs’ struggles come down to tactics or personnel with Tel and Odobert under scrutiny and debate the ongoing concerns

Tottenham slipped to a 2-1 home defeat against Aston Villa in a flat and frustrating performance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Despite a bright start, Spurs quickly lost control and never looked convincing once Villa grew into the game. Questions are now being asked of Thomas Frank’s reserved tactical approach, with his side once again lacking attacking impetus and creativity in the final third. Further scrutiny also falls on Vicario after another shaky display between the posts. A disjointed

No Spurs this week, but plenty to talk about. Jack is joined by The Extra Inch’s Windy to take stock of Tottenham’s season so far. Is Thomas Frank genuinely builing a brighter future, or is his system limited? They debate whether the team’s attacking issues come down to personnel or system, and share thoughts on Wilson Odobert's ability and potential dividing fans right now.

The lads talk about Spurs’ growing solidity under Thomas Frank, the remarkable stat of being the only Premier League team not to concede in the final 15 minutes of games, and whether Frank’s pragmatic, low-xG style is sustainable.

Jack is joined by Jon Bass of the Man’s Not What podcast for the latest Thursday Q&A. We reflect on Spurs’ frustrating Europa League draw with Bodo/Glimt — where Thomas Frank needs to take the blame, but also where he’s actually doing a good job. Which players should be stepping up, and are the younger talents being asked to carry too much pressure too soon?

Tottenham were held to a 2-2 draw away at Bodo/Glimt in the Champions League after one of their most shambolic displays in recent memory. The Norwegian side pressed relentlessly, played with real confidence, and fully deserved their lead, while Spurs looked disjointed, lacking belief and organisation. Even with key players missing, should Thomas Frank’s side have had enough quality to see off opposition like this? Is the blame on the players, or is Frank struggling to adapt to the demands of

Was Thomas Frank too cautious in his setup, or are Spurs’ struggles in attack more about the injuries in the final third? With Kulusevski, Solanke, Kolo Muani and Maddison all sidelined, the lads discuss whether the lack of urgency is tactical or circumstantial. There’s also chat on Mathys Tel, why patience is needed with him, and what business Spurs may need to do in January to boost

It was one of those nights for Tottenham, dominant without any real threat in patches, outright wasteful in others, and ultimately relieved to salvage a draw. A point gained feels like much more than it should. Big questions loom for Frank, can his side start to be more creative in attack? How long can Vicario's lapses be tolerated?
