Tottenham Hotspur's actions off the pitch far from matched their work on the pitch on Sunday, with footage emerging which has exposed one player's mentality for all to see.
Jamie Carragher urges Tottenham to "part ways" with Tudor
The build-up to the Nottingham Forest game was all about togetherness. The battle against Premier League relegation would be done as a collective, starting with the supporters. And they certainly did their part. They handed the team bus an emphatic welcome - there could be no complaints about a toxic atmosphere.
They had listened to Cristian Romero's rallying cry and then some after the South American urged fans to stay together. But that rallying cry quickly proved to be nothing more than a performative plea rather than a real message of intent.
Igor Jesus' goal soon arrived, as did Morgan Gibbs-White's and Taiwo Awoniyi's. Like Crystal Palace and so many other games in North London this season, Spurs had been battered in front of their fans.
Any feeling that there could be a turnaround has quickly evaporated and Spurs now sit just one point above the relegation zone with seven games left to play. Their situation is a matter of urgency.
Questions have, therefore, arrived about Igor Tudor's future, including from Jamie Carragher.
The former Liverpool centre-back told Sky Sports on Sunday: "Unfortunately for him with the situation he finds himself in with his family and the results, I think it would be better if Tottenham parted ways with Tudor and looked to bring in another manager in between now and the end of the season."
New footage suggests that the blame isn't just on the Croatian, however. One Spurs player failed to back up his own words against Nottingham Forest.
Romero went against his own words against Nottingham Forest
Directly after the defeat, Romero told reporters that he would give "200 per cent" to keep Tottenham afloat in the Premier League. This came just 90 minutes after his initial rallying cry, donning the captain's armband. Despite the results, he claimed, effort wouldn't be questioned.
The footage tells a different story, however. Actions speak louder than words and Romero was seen trudging back into position for Gibbs-White's goal rather than giving even 100 per cent of his effort, let alone double that.
Had he followed his own words, then the Argentine defender may have prevented Forest's second of the afternoon.
It was an awful moment from the Spurs captain, who isn't the only player to look checked out of life in North London as of late. Whether a new manager can change that is the big question.
Whoever arrives at this stage must be a survival specialist rather than those who prioritise style. Spurs can ill-afford to get it as wrong as they have done with Tudor now that there is just one point between themselves and the bottom three.
