Spurs leave Leeds with three points after a professional away performance. We get into Thomas Frank’s in-game tweaks, Xavi Simons central, Udogie’s all-action display, and why away-day Spurs look miles ahead of home form. There is chat on Vicario’s big late saves, the midfield blend with Palhinha and Bentancur, and what changes once Solanke or Muani are back. We also touch on the broader Premier League trend toward set-piece-heavy, pragmatic football.

S15E20 - Palhinha and the Point
EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/thefightingcock Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!
Spurs draw vs Wolves sparks a cathartic chat: frustration with chance creation at home vs solid away form; “boiled parsnip” as the metaphor for a flat performance. Consensus that it’s early in Thomas Frank’s tenure, injuries matter (Madison/Kulu/Solanke), and a defensive-first build is sensible. Paulinha’s late equaliser praised for technique and leadership. Midfield makeup debated (Palhinha + passer vs metronomes), with calls to give Xavi Simons a run at 10 and find a dependable left-side option. Brief takeover chat: fan temptation of a £1.2bn spend vs concerns about ownership profile and league direction.

S15E18 - Kudus, Udogie, and the Buy-Back Dream
Spurs come from two down to draw 2-2 at Brighton after a dominant second half. We get into Kudus’ star turn, Udogie’s balance on the left, Paulinha’s destroyer work, and where the goals come from if Solanke’s not fit. There is a lively debate on Richarlison, the Harry Kane buy back clause, and how Thomas Frank’s pragmatism is landing with fans.
