Well, it’s all kicking off, isn’t it? Ash, Billie, Charlie and Rosa convene to assess the Villa defeat and the civil war engulfing Spurs—how much blame should Conte take? Is it all on ENIC and Daniel Levy? What’s the plan for the club from 00here? Does it all just feel especially bad because of who's top of the league? Things get pretty passionate, and it was good to get a few things off our chests. It’s not all bleak, though! We promise! Everyone gives their reasons for optimism for Spurs in 2023, and we give our must-investigate culture picks from last year.
