All or Nothing: Tottenham Hotspur (2020) s01e05 Episode Script

New Blood

1
The transfer window is open
and we're on red alert to see
if Spurs are gonna make any moves
before the window slams shut.
You know, most of this
is gonna be about transfers, obviously.
How many strikers
have you been offered this month?
Can you give us
an idea of what it's like
when the world knows
you want a striker?
We've had problems.
We lost Harry.
We lost important players.
The fact is that Spurs
haven't won without a striker.
Of course, the club
is very aware of it, but, uh
The club has some money, presumably,
and it's a window and it's open.
Mourinho's probably the most
well connected manager in the world.
Why aren't we going out
and just getting players we need?
It's not Mourinho's team, you see.
So, he's gonna need some players.
It's amazing,
I get these emails from fans.
And I do read them all.
But now when
you're at a certain level,
the market for better quality
is like a pyramid.
There's obviously
fewer players that are better.
We all have our dream teams,
um, but often that's not reality.
If Christian does leave the club,
would you look
to bring in another playmaker?
- It's a very difficult time for him.
- I think it is.
They would be prepared
to sell Eriksen in this window.
What do you do?
Do you wait 'till his contract expires
or do you cash in now?
Are you relying on the money?
If we don't have an offer to sell him,
how can we sell him?
A honest situation
is to try to get the best
from the players which is
what I'm trying to do and that's it.
- Cheers!
- Thank you!
Blimey mate, get off your yacht
and spend your cash, mate.
We don't buy
then who we gonna blame?
There's only one person
and it's gonna be Daniel Levy
'cos he's the one with the purse strings.
I get very frustrated
if at the end of a transfer window,
the team is not in a better place
than where we started.
A new era begins
for Tottenham Hotspur.
The most important thing
Courage.
Honesty.
Family.
Listen to
Tottenham Hotspur's stadium now.
Let's go together, boys.
Come on!
Do we want to start with the financials?
So we all know that,
unfortunately, we've had major injuries
in Harry and Moussa.
That's really going to force us
to go into the transfer market
and try and find
a couple of options if we can.
It's obviously difficult
in a January transfer window.
So, striker, midfielder
definitely on the list.
It's the start of a new year.
And chairman Daniel Levy
meets with other members of the board
to discuss potential player transfers.
Striker, very difficult because
José wants a particular style of striker,
very, very limited.
Um, but we have one or two
ideas that we're working on.
Loans or buys?
There's lots of bits and pieces
going all over the place.
We may end up
spending money, we may not.
We may end up doing a purchase.
We may end up doing a number of loans.
It's like this.
Because we know the activity always
happens in the last week of the window.
We have a budget, and
Even if putting aside the money,
the fact is there may be
a player that we all like,
but, you know, unless you've got
the club that wants to sell
or willing to sell,
uh, you've got the agent
who's willing to business with us,
and a player who wants to come here.
I mean there's a lot of things
that have to come together.
And I think fans, generally,
just have no comprehension
how hard it is
to physically do a transfer.
Why is it never enough now,
that even come January,
teams can’t be like, settled?
Do you know what I mean?
It always has to be like,
have to sign a new player.
That’s how it is now.
It is how it is,
but when you think about it,
it’s gone a bit crazy.
It’s like you have to have
new players all the time where
Yeah for what reason?
whatever happened to like,
letting a player like develop a bit?
Look at that 2011 season.
Imagine how much that
200 million is worth now.
That was way before
Neymar’s transfer changed the game.
That’s Harry’s right foot,
200 mill, mate.
Not now with the hammy, mate.
Yes! Good!
Up! Yes, Mich!
- Would you like a coffee?
- Yes, please.
I'll take an espresso, please.
Easy life.
This is my worst time.
- Worst?
- Worst.
- Why?
- Well, because now is the only time
I can sign players for this one month.
-Really?
Mhm, it's not easy.
Steve Hitchen is Tottenham's
Head of Recruitment.
- Thank you very much.
- Enjoy.
It's his job to find
new players for the club.
January transfer window
is the worst window.
It's a window of opportunity.
It's a window of panic.
It's never a window to plan.
I hate it.
I work on the metrics
that José gives us
about what a José player is
for each position,
working on the parameters of finance
that the club gives to us.
Tottenham is in
a very fortunate position now
where the profile of the club
has increased so much
and it's nice to know
that the players you can attract now
is miles away from
where they were five years ago.
Steve and the club
have got ahead of the competition
and made an early January signing.
Twenty-one year old, Gedson Fernandes,
a highly rated Portuguese midfielder.
Did they leave you alone?
How are you, brother?
It's an 18 month loan
with the option to buy at the end of it
for around 50 million euros.
And then we'll do the ones
at the top of the stairs.
The club has been in a position
probably for 12 months
taking away from
the Champions League,
where we've known
we've had to rebuild the team.
We just feel that this is a time
for some players to move on.
And to bring some new blood in.
Excellent. Thank you.
The transfer window
adds to the speculation
that midfielder, Christian Eriksen,
will finally achieve his aim
of a move away from Spurs.
I didn't sign a new deal because
I thought I wanted to try something new.
A football career's short.
I've I've felt it and I'm only 27.
It's difficult because with any club,
if your contract runs out,
it's just a business
because the money in the end
is really what controls if you go or not.
Outside of the transfer speculation,
there are still
important league points to fight for.
Having not one a game in a month,
Spurs have slipped
to eighth in the table.
José Mourinho says that
he's always found Watford away
a tricky fixture.
Spurs haven't scored in three
of their last five Premier League matches.
And today they are still without
their star striker Harry Kane.
Tanganga screaming for it.
He decides to shoot.
Great ball up to Son
who takes on the volley first time.
After 70 minutes of deadlock
A run in the middle from Dele Alli
Watford are handed
a golden opportunity to take the lead.
who does and has it back.
Deulofeu.
Oh and now they're appealing for handball
and get a penalty here, Watford.
Huge moment
with, uh, just over 20 minutes to go.
Paulo Gazzaniga
denies Watford's number nine
to keep it nil-nil.
Great save from Gazzaniga.
Substitution for Tottenham Hotspur,
is number 30
The new signing from Benfica
gets a big welcome
from the away end.
Gedson Fernandes Eriksen
Aurier
Good chance here to win it.
Lamela! Is it over the line?
No, we play on.
Just to truly illustrate
how close that is.
Deary me.
Have you ever seen
anything like that?
That's the end of the game.
Spurs have played 93 games without
a goalless draw in the Premier League
Until now.
José, what were your reflections
on that overall?
I think we showed good things, especially,
this organisation, this commitment.
The intensity is going higher.
If you imagine
our team today with Harry Kane,
I'm not saying that we would win,
but it's the kind of game
where you have a a goalscorer,
where you have a guy that smells goals.
Just wanted to ask about Danny Rose.
He hasn't been involved
in the last two squads,
and I just wondered the extent to which
he's still part of your plans?
Yeah, yeah, part of my plans.
Today, made a decision
to bring only players
to a match that we knew that
was going to to be physical so
a bit of everything.
- Thank you very much.
- Thank you.
Having been at the club
for twelve years,
left back Danny Rose is the longest
serving player in the squad.
here he comes and punches one handed.
Rose. Brilliant!
Magnificent strike.
This season he has been
in and out of the team.
His only league start
in the last eight weeks
was in the one-nil defeat
against Liverpool.
He gives the ball to Toby.
Toby gives it back to Paulo
and then goes long.
What is the point?
Stop doing this.
I can be a bit of a handful.
There has been times where
you know, I've said a few things
in anger when we've lost,
but it's just how I'm programmed
and I want to win.
The nature of football players
is when you play you are happy,
when you don't play you are not happy.
The biggest challenge
is what I call the impossible one,
which is to make everybody happy.
It's the morning after the Watford match
and the 29 year old
England international has come in early.
- Morning.
- Morning.
- Can I have a word, please?
- Of course you can.
- Morning.
- Morning.
Gaffer, um, I was just wondering
what the problem is?
What do you mean by?
Well, you you know
exactly what I mean?
How I'm being treated.
You know, I was very excited
when you came as manager,
but if you don't want me to play
I'd rather you just tell me now,
and I'll stay at home, gaffer,
and I'll train at home.
No, but let me try and be
as open as I can with you
because I think you deserve that.
When I arrive,
you played some matches.
You were on the bench other matches.
I didn't select you other matches.
And I think this is also
not what a player wants
because a player
wants to feel the trust, bam, bam, bam,
but was not also a gun
and you don't play anymore.
The week before Liverpool
you were fantastic in training.
You were fantastic.
And that made me decide
that probably the most difficult game
against the most difficult opponent
you played.
I think you didn't play well.
Then the next game against Middlesbrough,
Tanganga played so well
and is so strong defensively,
and doesn't make any kind of mistakes
because he's so fast and so powerful.
I cannot say
are you going to be a first choice?
Are you going to play every match?
Depends on you.
OK. I respect what you're saying about
I didn't play well against Liverpool,
which is true.
But I play once every four weeks.
Do you want me to be man of the match
and you want me to be
give my best performance when I play
one game and then don't play again
again for three or four weeks.
The defence has kept two clean sheets.
They play every game.
It's not fair.
- So who do you want instead of them?
- No, it's OK.
- No, look, you're the manager.
- Yes.
But you're saying to me
I was shit against Liverpool,
- but I respect
- No, no, not shit.
OK. I wasn't good.
It wasn't my best game,
yeah, you are right
and I respect what you say,
but other people
have been shit in training, shit in games,
but play every game
and in the squad every game.
- It's not fair.
- It's your perspective.
It's not fair. It's facts.
The whole changing room know it's facts.
It's not fair.
And Daniel,
I'm going to see Daniel as well.
So when Daniel's in tell him
I'm looking for him.
I think you are a honest guy.
- You speak what you
- That's the problem.
- I think you should.
- Yeah, I will.
Open your heart,
Whatever you want.
If I have an issue or a problem
or I'm not happy about something,
you know, I'm an adult,
I have to be able to
have an honest debate
or conversation with somebody.
And he is a very straight talker
and as am I and obviously I do want to
play every weekend possible,
but at the same time I know
football doesn't work like that.
He's the manager
so I have to respect him
because only eleven people can play
and if a squad's been assembled
to have two very good players
in each position,
you have to realise
you can't play every game.
So, I think it's something
you've got to come to terms with
once you maybe
get close to your thirties.
I've spent pretty much
all my professional career
at this club
and just wish that I was involved.
Obviously, I fully believe in myself that
I am Tottenham's best left-back still
And, you know,
I can't watch centre-backs
and right-footed centre-backs
play in my position.
It's a slap in the face basically.
When you look around this squad,
it's probably as settled a squad
as you'll find in the Premier League
with a great group of guys.
Our edge is the togetherness.
So, it's a spirit within the group,
- and once that's broke
- Come on!
it's very difficult to repair.
That's it. That's the last one.
He ideally needs to go to another club,
and for a long-term contract.
The problem is he wants to go to clubs
here and there aren't those clubs.
The only two clubs I'm aware of today,
on loan, Bournemouth and Newcastle.
Newcastle have the philosophy
that anyone over 26,
I don't think they'll buy.
Bournemouth, on the other hand,
they're willing to loan him
- with a guarantee, they'll buy him
- If they stay in the Prem.
But the agent's saying that
he doesn't think he'll go to Bournemouth.
He's so silly
because he's hurting himself.
- Anyway.
- Yeah.
You don't know
how long you've got left in football,
and you're as good as anything
one day and expendable the next.
Literally, nobody's safe.
You know,
everybody has a price in football
and sometimes when you get
to a certain age or you have
you know, certain amount of years
left on your contract,
people who work
within a football club will think,
now it's time to move somebody on
and get someone younger in.
It's a business
that aims to make money so,
yeah, you have to try
to not take that too personally.
In the penalty,
I don't have too much things to say,
It's just a great save.
We we study. We we analyse,
but, at the end of the day, as I say,
it's the keeper
in goal that makes the last decision.
Against Watford,
Paulo Gazzaniga was man of the match,
but it's unlikely he'll be in the team for
the upcoming game against Norwich City.
I'm just gonna pull the wrist down,
- does that cause any pain or discomfort?
- No.
OK. If I'm tapping
on this side of the arm, that's OK?
Yeah.
Club captain
and World Cup winner, Hugo Lloris
has been declared fully fit
three weeks ahead of schedule.
That was a time off
that I can feel behind me
and I just want to start again.
Yep!
I know that training is not enough.
Only the competition
will bring me back at my best.
And step by step I hope to be
at my best and help the team
to finish the season very strongly.
Goalkeeper is one specific position
and in this scenario,
it's one difficult situation
because Paulo
is the one play at this moment
Good!
He's a young goalkeeper
with a lot of talent and I think
he's gonna give good things for the club.
But, of course, in terms of Hugo,
he's one of the top keepers in the world.
And I think we need Hugo back.
He's our captain, he's our reference.
He's a world champion.
And he's very important for us
as a staff and for the club.
Let's go.
Ten days left in the transfer window,
what can you tell us
about the latest on Christian Eriksen?
- Have Tottenham accepted
- I can tell you
that is great news for you.
People gets addicted to the screen
because it's amazing,
but from us we are very poor on news.
The January rumour mill is incessant.
For spurs, the main question concerns
the future of Christian Eriksen.
There are stories linking him to a number
of clubs outside the Premier League.
When you came José,
you said you spoke to Christian,
- one of the first things you did.
- Yeah.
You understood what he wanted,
but you didn't want to tell us.
I still don't want to tell you.
I think he needs
the 31st of January to come.
Is it frustrating to you?
Because I mean,
there's been so much talk of an offer.
I That's for him to tell you.
I have nothing to say about
I think that's the best way.
You protect everybody.
You protect the clubs.
- You protect the player.
- Thank you, guys.
- Thank you, José.
- Thank you, guys.
With just over a week to go
in the transfer window,
Tottenham have now received
an offer from Inter Milan.
It's a club that Christian
is keen to join.
You know, I just wanted to say that
now I think it's a good opportunity
for me to go to Inter.
And I know, of course,
they’ve made an offer and stuff
and I just wanted to know
how it was going?
Only a couple of days ago
did we get an offer from Inter.
The issue for us today is,
obviously we have some injuries,
some key players,
and it's obviously hurting.
We have to try and find some solutions,
- very difficult in January, as you know.
- Yeah.
But I also said to José
and I just want to make it clear now,
from Tottenham's viewpoint,
I've always been consistent.
We don't want you to go.
From a financial viewpoint,
I've always said to you
whatever another club was offering,
we would do exactly the same.
So that there can be
no doubt in your mind
your reason for leaving
isn't a financial one.
- It's never been and you know that.
- I did say that to José, but I wanted
- to make that absolutely clear.
- No, that's fine, yeah.
So that's really
where we are Christian.
In reality,
this should be a fairly easy deal to do.
From the outside it looks very easy.
It's not that difficult, you know,
we're not talking
It's not like we're talking about
100 million dollar, pounds, euro transfer.
- No.
- Realistically small sums of money,
but I think from our viewpoint
we just need to be getting
a fair fee for the circumstances we're in.
- Yep.
- Right, I don't think in today's market
to pick up a player of your quality
for 20 million euros, let's just say,
I mean, that is not a lot of money
so I don't think we're being unreasonable.
No, for me, I'm not in control of how much
money has been thrown on the table.
It's between the clubs, of course,
there's nothing to do with me.
If the number isn't right
and I know it's not what you want to hear,
but because of our circumstances here,
there's a level where actually
it's not worth our while doing.
- Yeah.
- And I know that's not what you want,
and we're not trying
to stop what you want.
I mean it's ridiculous that José and I
know more about what's going on
by watching Sky
and everything coming out of Italy.
I know, but that's not my fault.
- No, it's not your fault.
- Of course.
You're an important player for us.
We're not in a good place at this moment
in time with the injuries we've got.
So, you know, it's it's not
an easy situation we're in.
And we have a good relation
and we speak openly.
I know that every game that you play,
every minute that you play,
you try to do your best.
I think you don't do better because
it's not because you don't want.
It's because the fear
this year I want to go,
this year I can be injured,
but you are professional.
I can only say good things
about this guy.
Because if you were a shit professional,
the situation would be a mess.
Twenty million euros and,
reluctantly,
we would agree to let you go.
Come on, guys.
We are still alive in the league,
but it's up to us now.
Eriksen is included
in the squad for Norwich,
which is boosted
by the return of Hugo Lloris.
Hey, come on, guys.
Let's do the job.
Aggressive from that start.
90, 95 minutes, it's in the mind.
Now focus! Come on! Let's go!
I'm quite emotive
even if you don't really feel or see
what's happening inside myself.
But I will use all my experience to stay
focused from the first moment of the game,
and to be ready to help
the team to get the win
because today that's the most important,
to get these three points.
The ball is deep
Really commanding from Hugo Lloris.
That's what you need,
a captain to lead by example.
Lovely ball.
Good linking work from Lo Celso.
It's whipped in by Aurier.
And struck wonderfully by Lamela.
Good save from Tim Krul.
Spurs have it again.
Aurier
Dele Alli!
It's a marvellous finish from Dele Alli.
A well constructed and well finished goal.
José Mourinho said that
Christian Eriksen would be involved
against Norwich and here he comes.
We wait and see what the future
holds for Christian Eriksen.
Duda
A darting run into
the penalty area from Aarons.
Penalty.
After four months out,
Hugo must face a penalty
in his first game back.
And he manages to squeeze
the ball beyond Hugo Lloris
on his return to the side,
and Norwich are level
with 20 minutes to play.
Hugo Lloris nearly, nearly got there.
Spurs must fight now for the win.
Good run from Son who's been allowed
to drift into the penalty area.
Son, what will he do here?
Can't quite work out the angle to shoot.
He was crowded out
by those in yellow and green.
Eriksen has it again.
Dele Alli
Where's that going?
Into the net!
Heung-Min Son is there
at the backpost to help it in.
Spurs have taken the lead again.
They had to do it
the hard way in the end.
Hugo leads the team to their first
league win in five matches.
Very important result for us.
Very important three points
in this moment.
It was fantastic
what happens after the one-one,
which comes in a difficult moment for us.
The return of Hugo is a happiness
to see one of the best goalkeepers
in the world to be back.
But at the same time
it's one of these
decisions that hurt.
And to leave Paulo out hurts.
The good thing is that
he's such
a good member of the family
that I think he he also shared
our happiness to have Hugo back.
The victory takes them up to sixth,
only six points behind Chelsea,
and the all-important
Champions League places.
Hi, Danny.
- Any news?
- Um
- Sorry.
- Hi, you alright?
So I think
Bournemouth are waiting to
um see what they can do
on the salary-wise.
- OK.
- Hello.
what they can do salary-wise.
I think it may be tough for them.
And Newcastle we're waiting to hear.
They're definitely checking you out.
What was uh
Did you follow up on Milan?
Yeah, at the moment
So, Milan is a no at the moment.
- OK.
- At the moment.
Because they were hoping
to sell someone to PSV
and it hasn't happened, so,
you know, things could change.
Well yeah, if you hear anything,
keep me in the loop.
- Alright, no problem.
- Thank you.
In the final days of the transfer window
the pressure intensifies.
Spurs have found another
exciting player that they want to sign,
but he is being chased
by a number of elite clubs in Europe.
The deal is far from done.
I've checked all his home life,
and how he's living there.
It's fine.
Personality-wise he's exactly
what this squad needs.
But I think the reality is that
we need to know that we've done a deal.
Yeah.
His name come to the table.
He was a player
that me, my staff is following,
A fantastic, exciting young player
that gives me, my staff
so many positive feelings.
Twenty-two year old Steven Bergwijn
is a Dutch international
currently playing for PSV Eindhoven.
There's always gonna be other clubs
chasing players of his profile.
You have your Liverpools,
Man Uniteds, Man Citys
all fishing in the same pond for players.
So, we've got to
try to be even more creative
trying to find different ways
of getting ahead of the game.
Yeah, it's so difficult.
No, no, no. I'm still trying.
Are they going to make
another offer or not?
OK.
OK, I'm just checking because
obviously we're running out of time.
Perfect.
Thank you. Appreciate it.
Thanks, bye.
With a new arrival in the offing,
a space in the changing room is now free.
Breaking news. Spurs midfielder
Christian Eriksen has arrived in Milan
ahead of his reported move to Inter.
Daniel Levy managed
to get the 20 million euros
he wanted for the transfer
of Christian Eriksen.
Obviously,
Christian was an amazing player.
We got on very well.
He wanted a new challenge,
you can't blame someone
for wanting to try something new.
I guess that's the business of football.
I guess that's the business
of getting sold for the right price
or getting bought for a certain price
because it's never as easy as,
"OK, you wanna go, you can go."
'cos that's not the way it works.
Daniel also secures a reported
two million pound loan deal,
sending Danny Rose to Newcastle
until the end of the season.
Moving to Newcastle
was part of wanting to play
and part of thinking that
the Euros are this summer.
It's an opportunity
that I couldn't turn down
and just thankful that the club
allowed me to leave on loan,
and play some football.
Is it important though
to to move those guys on now
rather than
at the end of the season?
What difference does that make?
- Christian and Danny?
- Christian and Danny.
You know, I think
I think Christian, if he stayed here
he would always give us something.
But
We still have managed to get
an important transfer fee,
and the future of the team
needs the deal that Mr. Levy did.
Big news for Tottenham fans,
here's Ross.
Breaking transfer news,
Spurs have confirmed,
in the last couple of minutes,
they've signed Dutch winger,
Steven Bergwijn from PSV Eindhoven.
Spurs have fought off the competition
and secured Steven
for a reported 27 million pounds.
It's a big move for him.
Now, he's got to go and prove it.
The feeling of getting one
over the line
that you know is going to
improve the team dramatically,
somebody the manager wants,
I think that's the best feeling.
With Stevie, we've found somebody
who's probably the perfect scenario.
He's young. He can improve.
But also he's won titles.
Good family behind him.
And he ticks the boxes
of everything we're looking for.
Before completing the deal,
Steven must pass his medical.
I ask you just to keep
at least one hand on, yeah?
OK.
Because if you come off the back,
the club won't be happy.
That's some hard work, that.
You made it look easy,
but it was very hard
what you did just now.
First game against Man City.
Is it so?
- What a game!
- I'm excited.
Oh, you should be.
What a game! What a team!
It’s unbelievable.
Normally I play on the PlayStation,
that kind of game.
Hi, good to see you.
Hi, welcome.
Nice to meet you.
- Hey, boss.
- Hi, you OK?
OK. I've got Steven for you, hold on.
- Hello, mister.
- Almost done or what?
I hope so.
Tomorrow I'll have the check
then I hope it's done.
Your parents are happy?
Yeah they are here now,
my mother is here and
Ah, they're there.
Yeah, everybody's happy.
We bring nice present for you.
First match is Man City.
Yeah, I'm ready.
- The big matches are the good ones.
- Yeah exactly.
That's why you play football.
- Mustn't let him down now.
- Again?
You mustn't let him down,
high expectations.
That's great, big smiles everyone.
That's lovely, really good.
Perfect. Thank you.
So, I'm gonna get some properties
just for you to have a look at
- Yeah, no problem.
- You're thinking apartment, yes?
Yes, apartment.
For me, the sooner
we get you in somewhere
- and settled the best it is for you.
- Yeah.
I don't want you living in a hotel.
In just a few days,
Spurs face reigning champions
Manchester City.
But before he starts training,
the club helps Steven
and his family find somewhere to live.
Stevie, so one of the players,
the other players who lives in here
has this apartment,
but on the ground floor.
So, it's big enough for him,
but then his family don't stay over.
I think if he'll want this,
we take
- Both.
- You'd take both.
So I think my parents stay here
and I take the other one.
What your parents will stay in there?
José is making final preparations
for his team to face
Premier League Champions,
Manchester City.
City are managed by Pep Guardiola,
a long time rival of José's.
- Son, OK?
- You good?
Skippy.
The first thing I say
in relation to a team
that is very dangerous
is don't lose the ball doing shit.
It's about everybody,
we lose the ball
trying to be offensive.
We lose the ball
because we are not perfect.
We don't lose the ball
by doing blind things,
fucking tricks, fucking flicks.
So, we need to be organised.
We need to win.
We need to attack.
We need to take risks,
but we need stability.
We need organisation
when we have the ball.
OK, we go.
OK. Let's go.
The fixture is the biggest game
of the weekend,
and all eyes are on
the club's major new signing.
Play, play, play.
With a number of key players out injured,
José plans to bring Steven
straight into the starting line-up.
Steven, Man City always has one guy wide
so what we do is
we press the side of the ball.
Could we see the first sign of
Steven Bergwijn playing?
I think so.
But, of course,
I don't like to create big expectations.
I don't think it's fair.
He's a player for the future of the club.
He's a young boy.
Let's not try to make him arriving,
"Has to perform,"
"Has to score."
But a player, I think, sooner or later,
the fans are going to love.
Let's go. Come on.
I want my team to win.
We need points.
No more than that.
- Mourinho.
- Hey!
- Happy birthday for Friday.
- Hey!
A defeat today could see Spurs
drift to seven points behind
a Champions League place.
Come on, we go with everything.
Come on.
First bell coming up, boys.
We worked the whole fucking week
to get the points. Come on.
Hey come on, guys.
Enjoy the game.
Enjoy to compete, guys.
We all want to win this game
and we're gonna show it.
Let's go! Come on!
José versus Pep
is one of the iconic
head-to-head match-ups.
Come on you Spurs.
Good challenge by Bergwijn.
Superb work.
Mahrez
The first half sees City
as the dominant force.
Sterling
Can they get this away?
Creating a number of chances.
Aguero goes down in a heap.
Oh, it is a penalty to City.
Hugo must face his second penalty
in successive league matches.
He denies Ilkay Gundogan.
City want another penalty.
Hugo Lloris made the save,
but I wonder did he give away
a penalty on the rebound?
Well things are heating up.
No penalty. Wow!
What drama!
Listen to Tottenham Hotspur stadium now.
We are in the game.
We are giving them
a good fight.
The result is there
to go to one side or another side.
But try to understand what I want to say.
I think when you saved the penalty,
they tried to put huge pressure
for another penalty to be given.
This is the difference between
a team of
and a team of good guys.
But the story of football
is that the teams of good guys,
they never win.
So, fucking hell!
Be a.
And the way the game is going,
they know Toby has a yellow card.
I promise you they know.
I promise you.
And I have to say that Kyle Walker
has a yellow card,
Zinchenko has a yellow card,
Sterling has a yellow card.
So, be a, don't be a good guy.
And now, how do we score a goal?
Bergwijn
Dele Alli lurking.
City move it quickly.
Mahrez Sterling
Good work from Tanganga.
Him and Lloris get in a tangle.
Off the line. Sterling
Gundogan over.
Winks has broken clear.
Now, Zinchenko is on a yellow card
what will happen here?
It's a red card, City are down to ten men.
Zinchenko is off.
How many more
twists and turns in this game?
It's a deep one into Toby Alderweireld.
Lucas Moura clips it.
A dream goal!
Steven Bergwijn
has arrived in North London.
That is absolutely incredible on debut.
Tottenham Hotspur one,
Manchester City nil.
Does well, Son is free
Two-nil Tottenham Hotspur.
He can celebrate.
Spurs can celebrate.
It has been an incredible
ten minutes in this game.
In this stadium's
relatively short history,
and early in the reign
of José Mourinho,
this feels like a defining moment.
Full time, Tottenham Hotspur two,
Manchester City nil.
Where have you got
that turn of pace from, son?
José, a win, a clean sheet
and a goal for your new signing,
what do you make of that?
When you play against the champions,
you know that it's a very,
very, difficult match.
You know that you have to be
in the top of your commitment,
in the top of your concentration.
You have to try, especially in our case,
we are a team
that doesn't score many goals
and I think it's the best feeling
for the players to end the weekend to say,
fantastic work and fantastic result.
I mean, this is what
dreams are made of.
It's a cliché, but it is,
and the celebrations afterwards
were brilliant.
- Yes, it's brilliant for me.
To make my debut
and score against Manchester City
is unbelievable.
Can't stop smiling, it's such a big day,
it's such a big moment, isn't it?
Yeah, it's unbelievable.
Yeah, it's fantastic.
Well, you started off
with a goal against Manchester City,
you've got something
to live up to now, mate.
Yeah, I hope the first of many.
So I think it's a very important week,
probably the most important week
of the season until now.
Big tackle on the South Korean.
He normally doesn't
stay down for too long.
- What movement hurts?
- When I do this.
If we're lucky it's just bruising,
but we do not want to pull him out
- unless he has surgery.
- He has to play.
When we find confidence,
happiness
something happen
that kick us in our teeth.
Attention turns now
to this FA Cup fourth-round replay.
