Nicky Butt tells Igor Tudor to do something ‘crazy’ to get Tottenham back on track
Nicky Butt has asked Igor Tudor to do something unusual to get more out of the Tottenham Hotspur squad.
Irrespective of what one thinks about the quality of players at Spurs, almost no one thought at the start of this season that this team would find themselves in the middle of a relegation dog fight in the final run-in.
Tottenham are now in serious danger of being relegated from the Premier League for the first time in the history of the competition.
Igor Tudor is confident that Spurs have the tools to stay up, but the Croat does not have a lot of time to get a reaction from the players, with West Ham now sitting just four points behind the Lilywhites.
Igor Tudor asked to take Tottenham players on a short holiday
Butt has opined that rather than drilling tactical instructions into the Tottenham squad, Tudor should focus on creating camaraderie among the group.
The pundit even called for the new head coach to take his players on a short holiday where they can bond.
Speaking on The Good, The Bad & The Football podcast, Butt said about Tottenham: “It sounds crazy, this, but go and take them for a little trip away and get the camaraderie back together and get them wanting to play together, wanting to run through brick walls for each other.
“I just don’t see that manager doing that. I see that manager getting them on the coaching pitch – which they have to do, don’t get me wrong – but first and foremost, you’ve got to galvanise that changing room and get them all together.”
Tudor has made it clear what he expects from Spurs squad
The Tottenham squad were already given five days off after Thomas Frank’s sacking before Tudor started overseeing training with the squad last week.
The players have thus had their mini-break, and it is now upto them to focus and get out of the mess they got themselves into.
Tudor has demanded hard work from the Tottenham squad in training, with the Croat admitting that the players were not able to do what was expected of them against Arsenal.
