Tottenham Hotspur's 17-year wait for a major trophy has led to increasing discontent among fans, particularly towards chairman Daniel Levy, who has been in charge since 2001. The only major success during his tenure was the 2008 League Cup victory. Under current manager Ange Postecoglou, the team is struggling in the Premier League. Former Spurs manager Tim Sherwood defends Levy, arguing that while criticism is prevalent, the lack of success cannot solely be attributed to him. Sherwood emphasizes that Levy has invested financially, suggesting that recruitment issues rather than Levy's management are at fault for the club's trophy drought.
Everyone looks at the common denominator and they think, 'Well, the managers have all come and gone and they're still lifting no trophies, but the one remaining factor is Daniel Levy'.
I think they’ve had the opportunities to win, and I think he’s spent money. It’s a head-scratcher why they haven’t won.
The recruitment hasn’t been top drawer... the recruitment team will be saying, 'Well, the manager’s not working with them properly,' and the manager will say, 'Well, the players are not good enough'.
It's not Levy's fault that the club haven't won anything. His job is to put his hand in his pocket and spend the money, and I think he has done that.
