'Money cannot buy mentality' - Austin on same page as De Zerbi

Former Premier League striker Charlie Austin has expressed alarm over Tottenham's recent form, particularly in light of Roberto de Zerbi's tenure and the club's limited transfer window spending. In the past 23 home league games, Tottenham has only managed to win three matches, with their latest loss being a 2-0 defeat to Newcastle United.

Austin pointed out that Tottenham finds itself in the same position in the Premier League for the past two seasons. Despite spending heavily on new players, Austin argued that money alone cannot buy the right mentality. He noted that de Zerbi came in with only six games left to play at the end of last season, whereas Matthias Jaissle had more time to prepare with pre-season training.

Jaissle's recent performances have been promising, suggesting that it's not just about the money but also about how well the players gel together. Austin emphasized that it will take time for Tottenham to turn things around, and they need to understand their current situation collectively.
