Tottenham Hotspur faces a crisis as they consider appointing Ben Davies, an injured back-up left-back, as interim manager. This unconventional move might be their best shot at avoiding relegation. Chief executive Vinai Venkatesham and sporting director Johan Lange struggle to find a suitable replacement after failing to secure Igor Tudor. Currently, Spurs are pursuing Roberto De Zerbi, the former Marseille boss, but there is uncertainty about the ideal managerial profile. The squad appears resistant to traditional management, with players like Micky van de Ven and Cristian Romero taking control during matches. Davies could serve as a figurehead, representing a more autonomous approach for the team. While this idea sounds absurd, it might be Spurs' least worst option amid ongoing turmoil and a desperate search for stability. The situation remains fluid as Tottenham grapples with their identity and future direction.
