“Tony Pulis on Spurs' Spain Team-Bonding Trip and Old-School British Morale” — what this page in the network covers. Former Stoke City and West Brom manager Tony Pulis has offered his perspective on Tottenham Hotspur's recent team-bonding trip to Spain, contrasting modern methods with the grittier approaches of his era. Writing in his BBC Sport column, Pulis notes that Spurs boss Ange Postecoglou will be hoping the getaway fosters unity ahead of a crucial run of fixtures. In his playing and managerial days, Pulis recalls, bonding often meant a few pints and a kickabout on Blackpool beach rather than warm-weather training camps.
The 66-year-old Welshman, who managed over 1,000 games in English football, suggests that while the settings have changed, the core goal remains the same: building trust and camaraderie among players. Pulis argues that such trips can pay dividends on the pitch, particularly for a Spurs side looking to maintain momentum in the Premier League and Europa League.
