Roberto De Zerbi appointment consensus emerges at Tottenham – ‘Utterly clueless’

Roberto De Zerbi is again being linked with Tottenham Hotspur as Igor Tudor gets ready for the Liverpool game on Sunday.

The Croatian manager is under extreme pressure ahead of facing the Reds at Anfield on 15 March, with his sacking almost inevitable at the North London outfit.

Spurs are in realistic danger of getting relegated from the Premier League and the former Juventus boss has arguably shown nothing to suggest he can help them avoid the drop.

De Zerbi is now a candidate for Tottenham, but fans in N17 don’t seem keen on the former Brighton & Hove Albion boss’ possible appointment.

Tottenham fans slam Roberto De Zerbi decision

De Zerbi has been a top target for Tottenham for months, but fans on X have questioned whether he’ll be the right fit for them.

One supporter has branded the North London outfit “utterly clueless” as speculation around the Italian head coach grows in N17.

There are some who feel the former Olympique Marseille boss’ arrival at Spurs would be a disaster, with the potential decision to replace Tudor with him expected to blow up.

Some fans aren’t convinced by De Zerbi’s CV so far, suggesting that Graham Potter got found out after leaving Brighton for Chelsea.

The Italian manager doesn’t seem to be a popular choice among the Lilywhites’ fanbase, with claims that there are better managers like Michael Carrick and Robbie Keane out there.

Even those who would feel De Zerbo could be a sensible choice acknowledge that things could possibly go badly with him.

Spurs must ride out Premier League worry as perfect managerial candidate emerges

Tottenham must find a way to avoid the drop in the short term and then plan for the long term in the summer.

If someone can come in on an interim basis and achieve top-flight safety, then Spurs should go for Mauricio Pochettino after the 2026 World Cup.

The Argentine head coach feels like the perfect candidate to restore stability at the club he took to the Champions League final not long ago.

A lot of supporters in N17 will admit that Pochettino would be the right choice for the North London outfit, but it remains to be seen what the hierarchy decides.
