With a crucial trip to West London scheduled for Tuesday, May 19, the manager is leaving nothing to chance.

This “no days off” mentality is exactly what Spurs need right now in order to successfully escape relegation.

By choosing to spend his day off analysing a future opponent rather than resting, De Zerbi is demonstrating a level of preparation and obsession that top managers are known for.

Roberto De Zerbi has made an instant impact at Spurs

Since arriving to replace interim boss Igor Tudor, De Zerbi has sparked a significant turnaround in North London.

Before his appointment, Tottenham had endured a staggering 15-game winless streak that saw them slide dangerously in the bottom three.

However, back-to-back away victories against Wolves and Aston Villa have transformed the atmosphere at the club.

De Zerbi has not only tightened the defence with the likes of Micky van de Ven and Kevin Danso but has also managed to get the best out of the depleted Spurs side.

Among them is Conor Gallagher, who had his best game in a Spurs shirt during the 2-1 win over Villa.

As Spurs prepare for their final push to secure Premier League survival, De Zerbi’s hands-on approach is providing the clinical edge they desperately needed.

Sky Sports News reporter Jamie Weir, speaking from pitchside at Villa Park, was unequivocal in his praise for several Tottenham players including Conor Garragher, who he believe has his best game in a Spurs shirt.

Conor Gallagher performance vs Aston Villa

Since his move to the capital, Gallagher has struggled to make any significant impact, often struggling under previous two managers.

But under Roberto De Zerbi, Gallagher seems to have found his groove, with the Italian getting the best out of him.

Weir described the performance as “Gallagher’s best game in a Spurs shirt,” noting that he controlled the tempo and transition of the game with relentless intensity.

Gallagher wasn’t alone in his excellence. Flanked by Joao Palhinha and Rodrigo Bentancur, the trio formed an impenetrable engine room.

“Either side of him, Palhinha and Bentancur were utterly magnificent,” Weir added.

The praise extended to the flanks, where Mathys Tel and Destiny Udogie were described as “relentless,” supported by a composed defensive pairing of Kevin Danso and Micky van de Ven.
