About this episode

The episode discusses the psychological challenges players face during a relegation battle, featuring insights from former player Ramon Vega.

Host Ricky Sacks and co-host Billie T are joined by former Tottenham Hotspur player and Football Advisor Ramon Vega in this feature edition of the show, as Ramon offers us his first-hand experiences of psychologically what it is like for a player having to cope in the midst of a relegation battle to draw comparisons to what the current crop of players would be going through this season at Spurs. We discuss the decision-making that has led to Spurs being in the position they are in this season, as Ramon offers us his own personal insight on what he has made overall of the turbulent nature of the overall campaign, and whether the players can now solely find a way mentally to pull Tottenham out of the difficult position they find themselves in, under the remaining 7 games with Roberto De Zerbi installed as the third head-coach of the season.
