Host Ricky Sacks is joined by co-hosts Richard Cracknell, Brendan McGerty and Tottenham Hotspur cult-hero Sandro on this exclusive interview edition of Last Word On Spurs.

Sandro joins us as he believes a destiny has been fulfilled after seeing his old boss Roberto De Zerbi appointed as our new Head Coach.

The 37-year-old ex-midfielder revealed he hoped the Italian would one day take charge in Spurs after playing under his guidance at then-Serie A side Benevento in 2018, serving as his captain during that period.

With us as a player between 2010 and 2014 and now a regular matchday hospitality host at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Sandro also cut his teeth as a coach under Roberto during the latter’s time at the helm of Brighton.

Sandro says he’s delighted to see one of his mentors take over at the club and believes the 46-year-old has the qualities needed to make a real impact on the squad and even revealed how a special invitation from Roberto once meant he was unable to celebrate a Spurs victory!

We finally close on whether Sandro could be part of Roberto’s coaching staff and his dream to one day manage Tottenham Hotspur.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Darren Hart, Ian Lubin and Billie T as the panel react to the news that Tottenham have confirmed the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi as their new head coach, with the Italian reported to have become the third-highest paid manager in the Premier League behind Arsenal's Mikel Arteta and Manchester City's Pep Guardiola on a five-year contract.

We discuss the suggestions that De Zerbi was overwhelmingly the club’s number one choice for the position, and the attraction to the Italian was based on his prior Premier League experience, his tactical acumen and the his reputation for playing attacking football. We also give our feeling to the news that De Zerbi does not have a relegation clause in his Tottenham contract and is understood to be fully committed to rebuilding Tottenham and views the position as long term project regardless of which division they are playing in.

We also address the divide the appointment has caused across the fan-base, due to De Zerbi's backing of Mason Greenwood at Marseille, and furthermore with the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters' Trust having confirmed they oppose his appointment following member complaints, with certain fans threatening to boycott fixtures. Finally we close on whether having made the appointment now if this changes our mood in being able to retain our Premier League status.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, George Achillea and Billie T as we react to the news that Tottenham Hotspur are closing in on the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi, with Spurs understood to really admire his attitude, tactical quality, and connection with players.

We reflect on that news that De Zerbi had told Spurs last week he wanted to wait until summer, but a lucrative long-term deal has made him open to taking the job now, a five-year contract is understood to be on offer and in the process, De Zerbi will become the third best paid manager in the Premier League behind Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta.

We debate whether De Zerbi is genuinely motivated at the challenge that sits before him of keeping Tottenham in the Premier League and whether we feel anymore confident of staying up on the back of a permenant appointment being made.

Finally at Tottenham Hotspur, Johan Lange and Vinai Venkatesham are in the firing line from supporters and their club is the most spectacular example of chronic leadership failings in the Premier League, we discuss whether this final role of the dice from the duo will be their last act as employees of the Club and whether there is any possible case you can make for either to stay on, given the number of poor decisions taken alone in this season.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Jason McGovern, Billie T and George Sessions via The Press Association as Igor Tudor has left his role as Tottenham Hotspur interim head coach after just 44 days and seven matches. Spurs said they have "mutually agreed" with the Croat to part ways with "immediate effect". The decision comes a week after a damaging 3-0 home defeat by fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest on 22 March - a result that left Spurs 17th in the table and only one point above the relegation places with seven games remaining.

The panel discuss the Croatian's exit and react to the news that Tottenham Hotspur want to convince Roberto de Zerbi to become their new permanent head coach. De Zerbi, who is available following his exit from Marseille earlier this season, is a primary target and Spurs, prior to the official announcement of Tudor's departure, tried to ascertain whether the Italian is open to the job.

The boys debate the concerns that while De Zerbi is open to becoming the club's next permanent head coach, he would prefer to wait until the end of the season when he knows whether the club are still in the Premier League. It now remains to be seen whether Tottenham renew their efforts to land former Brighton boss De Zerbi immediately following Tudor's departure.

We finally close on George giving us his thoughts on what he has made of covering Spurs this season personally and whether following Tudor's exit, if there is anyway this group of players under yet another new voice can keep Spurs in the Premier League.
