The final standing was their lowest placing since promotion in 2019 and was a far cry from the expectation surrounding Tottenham following their impressive fifth-place finish the year prior. Under Skinner, Spurs struggled to relish any attacking edge or cohesion and the 43-year-old was sacked in March on the back of eight successive defeats that left her side flirting dangerously close to the relegation spot. Vilahman will be tasked with improving on Spurs' finish last season, as well as getting the most out of a thinned-out squad following the summer's departures. Spurs are yet to make a signing in the summer transfer window, though with Vilahman now at the helm that reality should shift. Spurs say their new boss' coaching staff will be appointed in "due course". Last year England's Lionesses conquered Europe, this year they are out to rule the world!
