Tudor being replaced by another unfortunate soul won't change a thing for Spurs. The players have given up and I cannot see anyone turning that around.

Robbie Keane’s the man to galvanise Tottenham into survival. He ‘gets’ the club and is the sort of personality made for this situation.
David, Liverpool
It's a shame the decision makers didn't leave by mutual consent.
Paul, Colchester
Right, we'll be saying goodbye soon so let's recap what we know so far.
Igor Tudor has left his role as Tottenham Hotspur interim head coach after just 44 days and seven matches in charge.
Spurs said they have "mutually agreed" with the Croat to part ways with "immediate effect".
The decision comes a week after a damaging 3-0 home defeat by fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest on 22 March - a result that left Spurs 17th in the table and only one point above the relegation places with seven games remaining.
Tottenham have suffered five defeats in seven matches in all competitions since Tudor succeeded the sacked Thomas Frank on 14 February, on a deal until the end of the season.
Spurs said: "An update on a new head coach will be provided in due course."
BBC Sport understands Spurs will appoint Tudor's replacement in the next few days to be in place for when most players return from international duty.

The appointment reflects badly on the Spurs hierarchy. Never the right appointment given the club's position. Who to appoint next, though? I empathise with how Spurs' fans are feeling right now, given my own club's similar struggles in recent seasons. Really hoping they do enough to stay up.

No sign of any apology from anyone at the club for getting the appointment wrong in the first place. Celtic sacked their short term manager this season and also the person that appointed him.

I have no sympathy for Tottenham as a club, both the board and the players are a joke and have let the fans down and on the bases of the performances they deserve to get relegated.

How many managers does this club have to go through to put it in the right position? That board and that senior management really has to take responsibility and accountability in their decision making.
This year, without a doubt, this decision making is absolutely awful, not thinking at all in the long term point of view, very short term, not knowing what they're doing.
I think it was incompetent in many, many ways. I'm still questioning why they are in a job.
Gary Mabbutt
Former Tottenham captain
You can't have somebody who knows nothing about the Premier League, who knows nothing about the club.
We've got 21 points to be won. That's what's got to happen. You don't need a tactical genius. What's most important is motivation.
We have the quality within our players. They need to put their arm around their shoulders, let them go out there with a smile on their faces, believing in themselves, play the game that they love and be able to get a result.
Ramon Vega
Former Switzerland and Tottenham defender
The issue is much deeper. The club, the board itself is looking only on the money side. The fan is completely ignored. The fan is as much distant from the board and the club as I've seen in my life.

They're in a desperate situation as we sit here today.
I think someone like Harry Redknapp could do a very similar job to the one Martin O'Neill has done at Celtic on the short-term basis, especially to stabilise the club.
Long term it's not the solution but to go in and instill some confidence into the players is something Harry would do.

Well done to Neil Boughton, George, Simon, Pedro and Dan.
The final answer is Cristian Stellini at Tottenham.
Here's the full line-up:
Thanks for playing along and well done if you got any of them right!

The Australian was replaced by then Brentford boss Thomas Frank in the close season and the Dane's tenure started positively.
Spurs stormed into a 2-0 lead over European champions Paris St-Germain in the Uefa Super Cup - Frank's first match in charge - before conceding two late goals and eventually losing on penalties.
They carried that positivity into the start of their Premier League campaign, opening with a 3-0 win at home to newly promoted Burnley before impressing in a 2-0 victory at Manchester City.
Spurs suffered just one defeat - in all competitions - in Frank's first 10 games in charge, but results dramatically tailed off following a 1-0 loss at home to Chelsea on 1 November.
Frank was eventually sacked on 11 February after a run of two wins in 17 league games.

It's not Steve Coppell, it's not Dave Bassett and it's not Paul Sturrock.

Do you bring in a Ryan Mason? Harry Redknapp? Tim Sherwood? Glenn Hoddle?
Or, if you could get Roberto De Zerbi, would he take over the club right now? But then you'd have to put him on a long-term contract... and what happens if they get they relegated?

It starts to get a bit trickier with the last two of our quiz answers.
Shout out to Cookie, Sean, Ian Sansby, Ralph Corrish, Miles, Stephen Pearson, Keith Pearson and Craig for getting this one.
It's Les Reed at Charlton Athletic.
Got to be honest I've not seen a single person get the last one.

The most important thing is staying in the league. The long-term solution and building of the club can't really take place until you know whether you're doing it from the Championship or the Premier League.
There's not many really top-quality, real long-term visionary coaches who would jump into this job right now without a break clause in their contract if they're relegated in the summer.
But then is that actually good for the club to have to bring in and release another manager after seven games?
Image source, Getty ImagesThe one constant at Tottenham under managers Ange Postecoglou, Thomas Frank and Igor Tudor has been a lengthy injury list.
All three managers have struggled to put out a settled side, often missing key members of their squad for long periods.
Those issues seem to have escalated to new levels under Tudor, who was missing 13 players through injury before their recent trip to Liverpool, ironically when Spurs earned the only Premier League point of his short tenure.
Defensively, the team has often lacked a solid base, with the key central pairing of captain Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven missing matches due to suspension as well as injury.
A perceived lack of discipline has not helped, but it is in attack that the club has really felt a drain on their resources this season.
Creative talents such as James Maddison, Dejan Kulusevski, Mohamed Kudus and Wilson Odobert are all currently unavailable, with only Maddison and Kudus potentially returning before the end of the campaign.
Quiz: Name the Premier League managers to last fewer than 50 days in charge
Well done to those of you who got another one of our four Premier League managers to last fewer than 50 days in charge.
We were looking for...Sam Allardyce at Leeds United.
Nigel Howarth, Jack, Chris Marshall, Joshua Levey and Christopher Leaver you all got that one - well done!
Tottenham have won just 30 points from 31 Premier League games this season - their joint-lowest, along with 1914-15, at this stage of a league campaign.
They are now winless in their past 13 league matches (D5 L8), since their 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace on 28 December.
It is the club's second longest winless league run since 1912 - the record stands at 16 games, set in the 1934-35 season.
The single point Spurs collected in the five league games under Igor Tudor was the fewest in the Premier League during that time.
Tottenham are also bottom of the form table since mid-December.
When it comes to overall win rate in all competitions, Igor Tudor is bottom of the pile for all Tottenham managers since 2014 at just 14.3%.
While seven games is not a long period of time for a manager to settle in and build momentum, Ryan Mason was in charge for one spell of seven and one spell of six games, and achieved win percentages of 57.1% and 33.3% respectively.
Mauricio Pottechino had the best win rate of recent long-term managers, at 54.3%.
Igor Tudor had been out of work since being sacked by Juventus in October 2025, following an eight-match winless run.
He departs Tottenham as one of only six managers to take charge of at least five Premier League games and fail to record a win.
Among the reasons given for Tudor's appointment was to introduce more attacking football, following criticism of their style of play under Frank.
Spurs did average slightly more shots per game under Tudor (11.6) than Frank (11.1), but they regressed in other metrics including goals scored (0.8, down from 1.4), expected goals (1.0, down from 1.1), and touches in the opposition box (21.0, down from 24.3).
Tudor's Tottenham had the third lowest xG across Premier League teams during his tenure - and only three teams managed fewer big chances.
Defensively, they faced the fifth most shots, fourth most shots on target and conceded the second most xG.
Only Burnley and Newcastle faced more big chances (17) than Spurs (16), while only Burnley (167) allowed more touches in their own box (161).
