Responding to reports of unrest from Spurs players over Nuno Espirito Santo's management, Alasdair Gold has dropped his own claim in a football.london Q&A.

The Lowdown: Spurs players unsettled under Nuno?

As per The Independent, just a few months into his reign, some Spurs players appear unhappy with life under Nuno despite an originally brilliant start to the season.

After picking up the Premier League Manager of the Month award for August, Tottenham have slumped to three defeats in their last three league games by sizeable margins to a plethora of their London rivals.

As such, journalist Miguel Delaney has now revealed that those close to the Spurs squad aren't impressed - with one quote claiming him to be "some of the worst of Mourinho without the medals”.

The Latest: Gold drops claim...

Responding to these reports when asked by a Spurs fan if Nuno has already lost the dressing room, Gold pleaded to be 'wary' of players or agents moaning about coaches.

"I'm so wary of players or agents moaning about managers," he explained in a football.london Q&A.

"It's a worrying theme, particularly at Tottenham, and Pochettino, Mourinho, Mason and now Nuno have all had sniping behind the scenes, presumably from those who aren't playing.

"At some point, we have to look at the players and why the 'go to' option is to moan about the manager. How many managers do the club have to go through before the players are happy? Perhaps it says more about them than those brought in to manage them."

The Verdict: Reoccurring problem...

As explained by Gold, the issue of unrested Spurs players has become a reoccurring theme and one suffered by a plethora of managers since Pochettino left the club in 2019.

Certain sections of the Lilywhites squad must now take blame in what is looking more and more like a toxic environment at Hotspur Way.

The fickle nature of football could mean the mood surrounding Spurs and Nuno could change in a matter of weeks depending on results and if his playing style notably improves.

However, as it stands, it appears the 47-year-old is the latest in a long line of managerial scapegoats.
