Why this break has come at the worst time for De Zerbi & Spurs

Tottenham manager Roberto de Zerbi is currently facing a challenging period as the international break interrupts his efforts to develop the team. Columnist Tony Pulis highlights that the timing of this pause is particularly disadvantageous for the club's ongoing progress.

The break has limited the manager's ability to work directly with his squad during a critical phase of team building. According to Pulis, the interruption creates significant obstacles for the staff as they attempt to establish a cohesive playing identity and implement tactical adjustments.
