Four games into the season, Spurs are still waiting for their first goal — but is it really time to panic?

Graham, Mark and Thom are back to dissect Tottenham's 0-0 draw with Everton and the very different ways we're all feeling about the start to life under Roberto De Zerbi.

There are positives. Two clean sheets in a row, a defence that looks increasingly solid and signs that the midfield and overall structure are improving. But there's one rather obvious problem: Spurs still can't score.

We discuss whether the new-look attack simply needs time to click, the struggles of Savinho, Marmoush and Tel, and whether Tottenham actually signed the natural goalscorer this squad desperately needed.

There's also a big debate about De Zerbi. Is he right to publicly demand more from his players, or could his very visible coaching and criticism actually be damaging the confidence of an attack already struggling to make decisions in the final third?

Then we get into the increasingly strange Richarlison situation. After moves to Everton, Turkey and Brazil all failed to materialise, last season's top scorer is still at Spurs — but isn't in the Premier League squad and seemingly isn't in De Zerbi's plans. Has the whole situation been badly handled?

❓ Thom's Teaser takes us back to Spurs' previous 0-0 home draw in 2017, as Mark and Graham attempt to reconstruct the starting XI against Swansea — with the contest going right down to the wire.

🔮 We also look ahead to a huge Carabao Cup tie at Liverpool, question De Zerbi's plans to rotate at Anfield, and make our predictions for Aston Villa before asking the big question: are there genuine reasons to believe things are about to improve, or are Spurs fans already running out of patience?

Spurs finally have their first point of the season — but we're still waiting for that first goal.

Graham, Mark and Thom are back to pick through Tottenham's draw with Nottingham Forest and ask whether we're beginning to see signs of Roberto De Zerbi's new-look Spurs taking shape.

Despite 12 shots and none on target, there were positives. We discuss an improved defence, the Van de Ven–Van Hecke partnership, a stronger midfield and whether the attacking problems are simply going to need time to resolve.

There's also plenty on De Zerbi's approach to managing player fitness. Are Spurs being sensible after two injury-hit seasons, or has the club gone too far in the other direction? And what do we make of De Zerbi publicly discussing the decisions behind taking Savio and Udogie off?

We ask the big attacking question: where are the goals going to come from? Is Solanke capable of being the answer, which combination of Marmoush, Savio and Kudus will eventually emerge, and how could Maddison and Xavi fit in when they're available again?

Plus, we give some deserved praise to Rodrigo Bentancur, discuss the growing partnership and structure of the new midfield, and — naturally — get dragged into the controversy surrounding Forest's disallowed handball goal.

❓ Thom's Teaser brings back some happier memories as Graham and Mark battle to identify some classic Spurs goals — with considerably more success than last week's effort.

🔮 And we update the Predictions League before making our calls for Spurs vs Everton.

After three games without a goal, is there genuine cause for concern — or are we just waiting for this completely rebuilt Spurs side to click?

Ten new signings. A brand-new look Spurs squad. And somehow, an awful lot of discussion about trees...

Graham, Mark and Thom are back to dissect a remarkable end to Tottenham’s transfer window, as Spurs bring in 10 new players and reshape the squad for Roberto De Zerbi.

We run the rule over the new arrivals, including Savinho, Omar Marmoush, Mykhailo Mudryk, Sandro Tonali, Ederson, Jan Paul van Hecke and Marcos Senesi, and ask the big question: have Spurs actually had a good transfer window?

There’s also plenty on the players heading the other way. We discuss the departures of Djed Spence, Kevin Danso, Will Lankshear and Pape Matar Sarr, and whether any of those decisions could come back to haunt us.

We also look back at the Newcastle defeat, discuss the early signs from De Zerbi’s new-look midfield and defence, and ask how long it might take for so many new players to gel.

Then things take a turn...

❓ Thom’s Teaser returns with a Nottingham Forest-themed battle involving Spurs players, trees, wood and some truly appalling puns.

🔮 Plus, we make our predictions for Nottingham Forest vs Spurs and ask whether Tottenham can finally get their Premier League season up and running.

Come on you Spurs! COYS

Well, that wasn't quite the start we had in mind…

After a summer full of optimism, Spurs opened the new season with a dismal 3–0 defeat to Brentford. Graham, Thom and special guest Owen pick through what went wrong and ask how much we should really read into one very poor performance.

Was the squad properly prepared? Does the midfield have enough quality and physicality? How quickly can De Zerbi get his new-look Spurs side playing the football he wants — and how much difference will Savinho, Marmoush and the rest of the reinforcements make?

We also discuss the defensive concerns, whether Spurs need another right-back, the futures of Bergvall and Sarr, the injury situation and De Zerbi's controversial five-man leadership group.

Plus, Thom's Teaser returns, we make our predictions for Charlton and Newcastle, and finish by finding some reasons to be positive about the season ahead.

Come on you Spurs! 🐓

The Crowing Cockerel Podcast is back — and, remarkably, there’s optimism in the air.

Graham, Mark and Thom return to preview Tottenham Hotspur’s 2026/27 season after a summer of major change at Spurs.

We discuss the arrival of Tonali, Fernandes and the rest of the new signings, where the squad still needs strengthening, the search for a striker and whether De Zerbi can get more from this Spurs side.

We also pick our Player of the Season, predict the starting XI against Brentford, debate Solanke vs Richarlison, choose our new Spurs captain and reveal where we think Tottenham will finish this season.
