Rule The Roost - A Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

Don't You Believe In Magic Anymore?

Season 9, Ep. 55
•

Host Jack is back with Ben Haines on Rule The Roost, the thinking man's Tottenham Hotspur podcast. They break down Tottenham's recent FA Cup win against Burnley and cut through the waffle to answer the big question: Just how crucial is winning the cup for Spurs this season?


The FA Cup takes centre stage as the hosts debate its modern-day relevance. Has it lost its magic, or are other trophies stealing its thunder? They also get real about the current squad, comparing it to the adored 16/17 Pochettino side. Is this team on the brink of something special?


Timo Werner's potential move from Leipzig to Spurs is also on the table. Jack and Ben discuss the pros and cons, considering Werner's track record, especially his mixed bag at Chelsea.
