According to Bbc.

Background

Roberto de Gerby, early in his coaching career, faces challenges to improve Tottenham Hotspur's mentality. He should work with the team's new players to improve the team's performance, which has finished 17th in the last two seasons. For this, he needs to change his training methods, try to deal with frustration and improve team spirit.

Why this matters

Roberto de Gerby's Tottenham suffered a heavy defeat at Brentford after spending more than £400m. This defeat shows that even with new players and transfer funds, the team mentality cannot be changed. This puts De Gerby's coaching skills to the test as he must try to overcome frustration and improve team performance.

Key Points

  • Tottenham lost at Brentford.
  • Roberto de Gerby's Tottenham Hotspur, hit by heavy defeat at Brentford, shows frustration without cash.
  • Spurs coach De Zerbi must find a way to cure losing mentality - BBC Sport.

Roberto De Gerbie, despite spending more than £400m on his Tottenham Hotspur squad's revamp, has shown his side's first Premier League defeat shows that money is not the answer to a losing mentality. De Gerby, after his rush, said he needed 7 games to keep his side fighting for survival in the first game. He got that win, but it was a tough match as Tottenham won against Everton in the final period.

The Italian coach has spent a lot of money on the transfer of new players, so that he does not have to step into that difficult season again. But, against this victory, he did not have what he expected. The pattern of how Tottenham broke at the first sign of pressure he faced at Brentford, even after the transfer fund and the transfer of new players, showed grim evidence that a team must be above the money to deliver an upset.

De Gerby, though he has tried to address some of his team's shortcomings, finds himself once again forced to act as a psychological healer when his new Tottenham perform like the old Tottenham. The players at the World Cup were said to be in poor physical condition, but there was no explanation for the fundamental flaws, the lack of determination, and how much Brentford excelled in every department.

"Bad game. We lost and were double the difference. That's how it happened. We didn't fight as well as we should. They have a compliment because that's Brentford's best quality," de Gerby told BBC Sport.

On this day, Tottenham fans applauded the new players and welcomed their new players. But those players appreciated most of the empty space and when Michael Kayode made it 3-0 in the 49th minute, some walked away.

Brentford, their normally reliable Igor Thiago, grabbed a goal of his own, but it was to no avail for Tottenham and De Gerby. Instead, rock singer Jon Bon Jovi was offered a vision, but Tottenham gave him a number of sad songs.

De Gerby, Andrew Robertson, Marcos Ceneci, Jan Bolwan Hake and Chandro Donali were four of his rookies. There is only one way for them to rise above, because they often step here. None of them stand out as unique, without others. The Italian midfielder, Donali, was bought from Newcastle United for £100m but was outright rejected by Brentford's record signing Mamadou Sanger.

When Vitalia Janelt took the lead in the 12th minute of the first half, Tottenham had taken the lead without fail. De Gerby looked to inspire Tottenham but kept their heads down, losing physical challenges and showing no self-belief to ever recover.

De Jerby said, "We are now starting a new project, but we do not see any basis in it." "All the players need to improve in terms of physical condition and structure and pressure," he said.

There are a lot of new faces, but de Gerby said, "We don't want to be the reason why the first XI can't compete. Brentford's spirit is great on the pitch and that should be the perfect example for us". New faces are good, but this defeat showed that Tottenham's problems were preceded by new players. De Jerby must have been in a hurry to get rid of the past.

What happens next

De Gerbi will be looking for success in the next few games in an attempt to improve his team's mood and performance. Tottenham will now have to make a fresh start with new players and learn to cope with the pressure against the likes of Brentford in future matches. In the next match, he may make further changes in an attempt to correct the team's shortcomings.
