Daniel Levy walked away from Tottenham Hotspur after last season’s Europa League success.
The former owner of the club is a lifelong Tottenham fan and still cares deeply about the ongoing affairs of the football club.
How are we not getting these decisions? 😡
Spurs still have not been awarded a penalty this season… 😳
Levy spent 14 years overseeing things at Tottenham, leading the team to a Champions League final with some decent managerial appointments and some shrewd recruitment.
Now, Levy has given an interview on Tottenham and delivered his verdict on the appointment of Roberto De Zerbi.
Daniel Levy praises Roberto De Zerbi
It’s clear that Levy is a very big fan of De Zerbi and now believes that Tottenham are in good hands.
At this stage, the club’s Premier League status is up in the air, but Levy thinks Spurs now have a manager who has instilled belief that survival can be secured.
He told ITV News: “I’m optimistic that we will remain in the Premier League.
“I think Tottenham has a great coach, and all the fans and all the employees and everyone now are behind this coach.
“Let’s hope that the players can do it for the last two games.
“Like every fan there’d be emptiness in the stomach. But, we will bounce back. Let’s be optimistic and hope that doesn’t happen.
“I just hope at this moment in time that Tottenham manages to remain in the Premier League.”
Tottenham should have persuaded De Zerbi earlier.
The club had to get the man to replace Thomas Frank, right and in appointing Igor Tudor, Tottenham made the wrong decision entirely.
De Zerbi might not have fancied coming in at that point, but clearly, he was persuadable, and the club had to try harder to get him through the door.
Tottenham’s performances have vastly improved under De Zerbi, and now it remains to be seen whether the club will rue the decision not to appoint him sooner.
