Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi said his team is not yet ready for the new Premier League season after a 3-0 defeat to Brentford. The loss, De Zerbi claimed, was the worst performance of his tenure, highlighting concerns over the squad's readiness. The manager expressed no anger toward his players, instead focusing on the need for development.
De Zerbi emphasized that the team is still in the process of becoming a cohesive unit. He acknowledged the challenges of integrating new signings and adapting to the demands of the Premier League. The manager’s comments came after a difficult start to the season, with Tottenham struggling to find their rhythm.
The match also saw the debut of Sandro Tonali, a club-record signing for Tottenham. Despite his presence, the team failed to secure a positive result. De Zerbi stressed that the squad needs time to gel and build confidence.
As the season progresses, De Zerbi remains focused on long-term development, believing the team will improve with continued effort and patience. The early struggles, he said, are part of the process.
