The optimism around Tottenham is unlike anything we've felt for years... but should we actually believe it?

This week the lads discuss Xavi Simons' brilliant interview, why everyone at Spurs suddenly seems to be talking about winning titles, and whether Roberto De Zerbi is changing the mentality of the entire football club. We also get into Romero's expected departure, the excitement around Luca Williams-Barnett, the transfer strategy, Savinho, youth sales, and ask the big question: if the window closed today, where would this Spurs side actually finish?

Plus there's a Lewis Holtby quiz, plenty of Reddit questions, and the usual descent into absolute nonsense.

We're looking ahead to the new Premier League season and asking the biggest question of all: can Tottenham genuinely challenge for the title under Roberto De Zerbi?

We break down the current squad, debate whether Morgan Gibbs-White is the missing piece, discuss Romero's future, the need for another striker and winger, and whether Spurs should keep spending while the opportunity is there. Plus, we talk Djed Spence's incredible rise, who should captain the club next season, and what counts as a successful campaign after such an ambitious summer.

England's World Cup dream is over, so naturally we've turned our attention back to Tottenham.

We react to England's semi-final defeat, discuss whether Jed Spence has played his way into De Zerbi's plans, ask if it's finally time to move on from Cristian Romero and pick through the latest transfer whispers surrounding Savinho, Vuskovic and more. Ricky checks in with his mysterious ITKs, we wonder what happened to tapping up rules, and somehow end up talking about seagulls delivering transfer documents, fly zappers and whether Tottenham fans are emotionally indestructible.

With the main podcast running way over, we finally get around to your Reddit questions.

We chat Harry Kane's future, whether Cristian Romero should be sold, De Zerbi's pulling power in the transfer market, Kinski's redemption arc, Morgan Rogers purely for the meltdown, England's World Cup heroics and why Tottenham suddenly feel like a club moving in a completely different direction.

45 minutes of transfer madness before we answer a single question. We discuss whether Tottenham have fundamentally changed under the Lewis family, the arrivals of Tonali and Fernandes, why the club's recruitment suddenly feels different, and whether Rafa Leão is worth the gamble. We also dive into Bergvall's development, Ricky's increasingly suspicious ITK credentials, why rival fans seem obsessed with Spurs, and the strange psychology of the summer transfer window. Plus Cornettos, Daniel Levy conspiracy theories, and the usual nonsense.
