Jamie O’Hara completely disagrees with Roberto De Zerbi’s latest Tottenham claim

Jamie O’Hara has disagreed with new Tottenham boss Roberto De Zerbi on his side’s performance against Sunderland as well as the Lilywhites’ chances of staying in the Premier League.

While the threat of relegation has been present for a couple of months now for Tottenham, following Sunday’s result, many, for the first time, are coming around to the realisation that the Lilywhites are genuinely on course for the Championship.

The North Londoners are in the bottom three, and as per Opta’s Supercomputer, Spurs are now the favourites to join Burnley and Wolves in the second tier next term.

One former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder has now given an extremely worrying assessment of the club’s relegation chances ahead of their final six league matches.

Jamie O’Hara sees no signs that Tottenham can stay in the Premier League

After the game, Roberto De Zerbi declared that Tottenham did not deserve to lose and praised the spirit his players showed, especially in the first half.

However, O’Hara has now disagreed with the Spurs boss, labelling the Lilywhites’ performance on Sunday as “shocking” and blasting the players for a lack of fight.

The former Tottenham midfielder told Sky Sports: “Absolutely shocking. Spurs didn’t deserve anything from the game. It sums up Spurs this season. They did absolutely nothing, offered nothing. Non-existent performances all over the park. Connor Gallagher, shocking. Randal Kolo Muani, shocking. Dominic Solanke, shocking. Richarlison, shocking. Destiny Udogie, shocking.

“You can’t carry six players when you are fighting relegation! You have to fight and put in a performance. Absolutely woeful again. I can’t believe how bad this team have got. De Zerbi is a good manager but he can’t produce miracles; the players have to produce for him. Nowhere near good enough. The quality on the pitch is non-existent. These players have fallen so far off from where they think they are as footballers.

“I am not seeing anything from this team that warrants staying in the Premier League. There is nothing that says they can stay up. There isn’t enough fight, quality or passion. For the majority of the game, I couldn’t believe what I was watching. These players are nowhere near it.”

O’Hara cannot see Spurs winning another game this season

De Zerbi has remained positive about Tottenham’s survival chances, suggesting that his side just need a win to get their confidence back.

However, O’Hara cannot see where the Lilywhites’ next win is going to come from and suggested that the Italian simply does not have the players to get the club out of their current predicament.

The pundit added: “They have not won this year. It will be April 18 next weekend and Spurs haven’t won in the Premier League. Where are the points coming from? They need seven or eight points. Where are they coming from? I can’t see it. The players are not good enough and are not producing. Pumped by Nottingham Forest and beaten by Sunderland. West Ham have got fight. Forest picked up another point. Leeds have fight and have energy at home.

“I don’t see anything from Spurs to say they can get out of this. I cannot believe how bad this team have got. De Zerbi hasn’t got the players. I think you could see a style of play from Tottenham; he knows what he is doing in terms of how he wants them to play. A slower build-up and possession-based. You could see what he is trying to do but you have to rely on the players to put in a performance.

“What can you do as a manager? You are waiting to get beaten as they are not producing quality on the pitch. There is not enough quality. The players, it’s remarkable, the performances they are putting in at this stage of the season and what is on the line.

“Solanke, £60m Spurs paid for him! He was meant to be Harry Kane’s replacement but it looks like he’s forgotten how to play football.

“Solanke’s performance today needs to be studied. It’s one of the worst performances I’ve seen. It’s remarkable some of the football I’ve seen. De Zerbi must be scratching his head. We don’t deserve anything from the game – Kinsky was the best player! I couldn’t believe what I was watching. De Zerbi is not a miracle worker.”
