The Story in 60 Seconds

Jamie Kemble argues that Tottenham Hotspur must consider sacking manager Roberto De Zerbi if his team shows a continued lack of intensity against Manchester United. Tottenham sits bottom of the Premier League and remains winless through five matches, despite the board backing the manager with more than £300 million in summer signings.

According to Kemble, high intensity is a non-negotiable trait expected from De Zerbi's management style that is currently missing from Spurs' performances. The writer notes that while new signings like Sandro Tonali and Omar Marmoush are still settling in, another flat display should force the board to make difficult decisions.
