"Working in jobs like doctors who do operations, they are dealing and decide about life and death. That is the real pressure. This is sport. The club, Tottenham, has always been a club with big pressure so you need to be ready to accept this and stand up, not stay behind."
"Everyone understands the situation, but we are working hard to change this, otherwise there is something wrong if you don't understand. Of course my job is to put the pressure away, but their job is also to accept this pressure as part of the job."
"Take responsibility and have courage to confront these things. This is the best way to do things and the only way to do things."
Igor Tudor, Tottenham's interim manager, has taken charge of a struggling team sitting just four points above the Premier League relegation zone after losing his first two matches. The club faces a critical match against Crystal Palace, with a 10-game winless run threatening their status as a top-flight team since 1977/78. Tudor rejects the notion that relegation pressure is genuine, comparing it to professions like medicine where decisions affect life and death. He demands his players accept pressure as part of their job, take responsibility, and show courage to confront their difficulties. Tudor has been critical of his squad's performance across all phases of play.
