As Daniel Levy walked out of St James' Park on Sunday afternoon after watching the worst 21 minutes in Tottenham Hotspur's recent history, any thoughts of how to turn things around accelerated.
The Spurs chairman headed down from the stands, through the tunnel and past the dressing room where the post-match inquest was taking place among the players before walking out of the main reception to get to the airport for the flight home. Levy's club needs action, it needs direction and leadership and the supporters need something to grasp on to in order to believe that this was the worst it can get.
Cristian Stellini will not be Tottenham's next manager. He will likely return to Antonio Conte's side when his stint in the hot seat comes to an end and that may well be far sooner than he hopes after Sunday's debacle, with discussions having taken place internally about making yet another change less than a month after his mentor's exit. football.london asked Stellini about his future on Sunday, he grimly said it was not a question he could answer.
