Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering a second managerial change in less than a month, with Igor Tudor's position already under threat after just three matches in charge. The Croatian has lost all three games, conceding nine goals, and the team's slide towards the relegation zone has intensified fan anger.
Thursday night's home defeat to Crystal Palace prompted stinging questions from members of the exclusive Tunnel Club, who directed their displeasure at chief executive Vinai Venkatesham and questioned the direction of the club under the Lewis family ownership. The hierarchy are now weighing up their options, though no obvious candidates are currently available.
Tudor was hired on a short-term deal until the end of the season, partly due to his reputation for making an immediate impact, but results have not improved. When asked about his future after the Palace loss, he said: 'I don't think in that direction. I have my job to do and that's all.' He declined to comment when asked if he would still be in charge for the next match.
Former striker Peter Crouch was scathing in his assessment, telling TNT Sports that Tottenham are 'without doubt the worst team in the league' based on form since Christmas. The club have reportedly sounded out ex-Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi for next season, but that plan depends on Premier League survival.
