Roberto De Zerbi speaks after suffering loss in first Tottenham game in charge to deepen relegation woes

Roberto de Zerbi's tenure at Tottenham Hotspur has begun in the worst possible fashion, with the Italian suffering a 1-0 loss at Sunderland that leaves the north London club firmly entrenched in the Premier League's bottom three.

The defeat at the Stadium of Light means Spurs remain two points adrift of West Ham United, who secured a comfortable 4-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers on Friday evening.
