Tottenham are in trouble. A harrowing defeat at Atletico Madrid in the Champions League has piled the pressure on Igor Tudor.
Despite a horror run of four straight defeats under Tudor, Spurs have confirmed he will take their press conference to preview their game at Liverpool, live on Your Site on Sunday.
Your Site News answers the key questions amid a crisis at Tottenham...
Your Site News' Gary Cotterill:
The mood here, frankly, is one of disbelief, certainly among fans who drive past and comment and ask me what's going on, and fans who come here to see what's going on.
We saw the CEO, Vinai Venkatesham, arrive here bright and early on Wednesday.
I assumed that was because Igor Tudor is staying in the hotel inside the training ground and, even though the players aren't in, they were going to have a meeting and that the Igor Tudor period would be over. But it seems not.
Your Site News' Lyall Thomas:
So, the process that took place when Thomas Frank was sacked was that the senior leadership group at Tottenham, which includes CEO Vinai Venkatesham and sporting director Johan Lange, recommended to the ownership and the board that it was time to make a change.
That's certainly the process that will be followed again, but it will be the owners Vivienne and Charles Lewis who have the final say on whether or not the head coach should be changed.
And there's also another interesting name in there that Spurs fans may not have heard of before, and that is Nick Beucher.
He is the son-in-law of Vivienne Lewis and is said to be increasingly influential in key decisions there. So, he would also have a say.
Your Site News' Michael Bridge:
Igor Tudor was given the role because he was known to put out fires, but at Tottenham, he's lit even more flames after a disastrous night in Europe.
It was supposed to be a game which was considered a free hit, but it's caused more damage and disaster, and the players, the club, are at absolute rock bottom.
He was Fabio Paratici's recommendation, a man who is no longer at the football club.
Your Site News' Kaveh Solhekol:
I really don't know anyone in the world of football who thought he was the right man for the job. When Tottenham decided to sack Thomas Frank, what they had to do is get somebody who had experience of English football. Now, Igor Tudor, he was a good player.
As a manager, he's got a pretty decent record, but there's nothing in that record that suggested he was the right man for the job, either in the short term or the long term.
Look at all the other Premier League clubs who've replaced their managers this season. They all went for somebody who had experience of playing and managing in the Premier League. I do not understand why Tottenham went for Igor Tudor.
Your Site News' Gary Cotterill:
Igor Tudor's appointment as the latest Tottenham Hotspur head coach was announced by Spurs on February 14, but we first became aware that he was going to be getting the job on Friday February 13.
Yes, Friday the 13th. And frankly, his almost four weeks in charge has been cursed. Four games, four defeats, 14 goals conceded, the worst ever record for a Tottenham Hotspur boss.
I think things can get worse; they're going to go out of the Champions League, there's very little doubt about that.
They've got Liverpool away at the weekend, and then they've got Nottingham Forest in the six-pointer. They could find themselves by the international break out of the Champions League, in the relegation zone, with time running out.
Your Site News' Michael Bridge:
Spurs must decide now if they're going to roll the dice one more time before the end of the season. Only this time the options will be even less than before.
Does a manager really want to come in and look after a side whose confidence is at an all-time low? Does that manager really want to be the manager who sends a club the size of Tottenham Hotspur into the Championship?
I think now we're looking at slim pickings. But despite that, they must make a decision urgently as time is running out.
After Antonio Conte in 2023, Tudor becomes the second Spurs manager to say "I have been involved in a situation like this before".
Your Site News' Kaveh Solhekol:
Tottenham are in a desperate situation. The most important thing is that they stay in the Premier League.
To do that, they need somebody who knows the league inside out, who knows the club inside out. If I was a chief executive of Tottenham, I would be calling Tim Sherwood and Robbie Keane.
That is who they need. Either one of them, I think, have what it takes to give Tottenham a fighting chance of staying up.
