Tottenham Hotspur have historically struggled against most top 6 teams, but with Jose Mourinho at the helm he’s turning them from a bunch of nice guys to… as they humbled Manchester United. On this episode we knee jerk react to the result and look for heads to roll. In the midst of that some tactical analysis breaks out regarding the match and a goal (37’ Son). It was a fun one.

Enjoy!

PS On the regain statistic it is not super relevant given the date the book was published, but I used it to counter my argument for a bit more balance. Also I was being hyperbolic with regards to the level of competition in the early 2000s. Matchday revenue is about 25% so not as important as sponsorship deals but important.
