The season's over, Spurs survived the drop, and now the rebuild begins. Jim is joined by JJ a coach with an A licence for A Coach's View: a player-by-player audit of the Tottenham squad heading into the summer.
It starts as "Spurs don't need to do much" and turns into something far bigger. JJ makes the case for Rodrigo Bentancur and Micky van de Ven as the spine to build around, works through the goalkeeper and centre-half questions, the Solanke and Richarlison striker dilemma, what to do with loan hero Palhinha, the young-player calls on Lucas Bergvall and Archie Gray, and why the midfield is where the real overhaul has to happen.
There's also considered look at the viral video claiming De Zerbi has "masked" Palhinha — and why that story is not as tidy as it sounds.
