Have Spurs Forgotten How To Be Tottenham? | The Originals

Have Spurs forgotten how to be Tottenham? Roberto De Zerbi is trying to make them remember. The Originals — Jim, Si and DJ — react to the 5-1 Charlton win, look ahead to Newcastle at home with Marmoush available for his debut, and drop one of the boldest Aston Villa predictions you'll hear all season.

Fernandes was the transformational player, not Bergvall (sorry Deej). Bentancur behind him with Tonali could be the midfield trio Spurs have been missing. The Yao Pedro comparison for how Marmoush actually plays in a De Zerbi front line. And Si's now-legendary "watching Spurs win is like giving a Labrador a tax return" line.

Plus: De Zerbi's public message about Tonali's fitness — decoded. Have Spurs forgotten what it's like to be a home fortress? The away-dressing-room "downgrade" story — smart marginal gain or gimmick? Johnny's WhatsApp score prediction, the behind-the-scenes on scheduling a four-hander, and the never-0-0 Newcastle vs Spurs Premier League stat.

Score predictions close the pod: Johnny 3-1 (via WhatsApp), Si 2-2, DJ 1-1, Jim 2-2. Then the hot takes — DJ says Savio scores more for Spurs this season than his entire Man City career, Si says Coventry stay up, and Jim goes properly bold on Aston Villa: bottom eight, Emery leaves after the Champions League semi-final.

Considered, warm, panel-honest. The Originals.
