Really enjoyed the three episodes. Jose comes across really well. I think Dele is going to have an amazing season and i have higher hopes having watched the documentary.

Just finished the 3rd episode overall it’s okay nothing earth shattering but it’s just made me like some of our players more.

Really sad watching Jan talking about his daughter moving school etc :(.

Aurier actually comes across like he doesn’t like Jose much, but he also comes across as a great guy a lot more intelligent than I expected.

Jose, overall I’ve never liked the bloke but his charisma is winning me over and I love how honest he is with the players I would have assume Mauricio would have just been everyone’s friend.

also finding it super interesting looking at the social groups of the players it’s weird how the dele and Eric Bromance seems to have just evaporated.

there’s obvious clicks or social groups within the dressing room but it’s nice to see the human side to the players we dig out often.

the other shock for me is how quiet we are as a team just seem to rely on Harry to lead

I’ve just watched the first 1.5 episodes while under the influence and god I really just love Dele Alli you know :unsure:

I hope Jose succeeds in getting it through to him that he can, and should, be one of the world’s elite players

I tell ya what, José wanted us. He wanted these players. He wanted this stadium (I said that when he was the first away manager here, he was licking his lips in the dugout for the old pro’s game). He wanted the training facilities. He wanted this club. It’s been difficult for various reasons - injuries - covid etc, but I think this will only get better for us. The winning mentality he’s putting in the players, the guys he’s chosen to buy, he (as many of you have noticed) is adding players to the squad that were missing. Not just positional, but personality wise. I think we could end up dark horses this coming year. COYS!

Wish I could binge it all right now. I'm loving it i wish it wasn't so heavily edited. Atleast we have the directors cut to look forward to in about 15 years.

Did'nt like winks attitude when mourinho got the job. "do you reckon he will be on us from the get go, all tactical?" .

Of course mate. You're on 1000's of pounds a week. Do you want mollycoddling?

I've found it a bit dull so far. We are interested obviously because we are Spurs fans, but it's not a well made programme. It's been rushed out and certainly isn't something a non football fan would watch. I hate that they have used the club commentary, which is awful, and in reality I don't feel it reveals much. Predictably Jose is the star. There's a few mildly interesting tidbits and some of the chats with the players are good, but it's very PR (and, trust me I work in PR for a sports star, this has the club's fingerprints all over it). This is a long, long way from The Last Dance.

Just realised the two lads who delivered us the 3 points at Molineux are no longer with us.

Jan and Christian combining for that last min winner against Wolves whom we finished above on GD.

Jose’s Midas touch?

But one of Wolves' players who took our 3 points last season is with us now.

Would imagine most of it is staged
What like reading from a script and learning their lines kind of staged?

I'd say absolutely not, they aren't actors, they couldn't manage that and make it look real. Careful about what they say and liberal use of the Daniel Dinklage veto? Absolutely.

People would hold up giant cue cards behind the camera ;)

Really not sure what people were expecting from Kanes team talks, maybe some people haven't played Sunday football before..

We have a quiet dressing room overall it seems, I can't imagine Hugos team talks being particularly inspirational.

People should also remember that Southgate made Kane captain ahead of the likes of Henderson etc

The show’s producers were on The Fighting Cock last week and said a lot of the indoor scenes used tiny cameras that were very easy for the players and staff to forget were even there. Heavily edited, sure, but I reckon most of the fly-on-the-wall type stuff is genuine.

£5 says JJ was one of the HR women.
Ha ha nah i'm Donna !
They should have honestly done a piece on what happens in a trying to do a transfer as its complete madness/stupidity in trying to do one and when Daniel said to Jose about CE and his agent not talking to us is just so typical and also not entirely true but they made it look that way but a semblance of truth. Everyone and anyone gets involved in a transfer and you saw the table at Hotspur way when we announced Jose and his people plus Donna , Simon and Ade from us plus a few others were there and his people plus plus plus. Daniel came across exactly as he is which is good for everyone to see.
