Spurs head into the international break just one point above the relegation zone after a 3-0 home defeat to Nottingham Forest, extending their winless run in the league to 13 matches. The slump has left the club assessing its options, with Tudor's future uncertain less than a month into his tenure.
The Croatian, appointed after Thomas Frank was dismissed in February, has overseen just one win in seven matches in all competitions and remains without a Premier League victory. His struggles extend beyond Spurs, with a 10-match winless run in league football stretching back to his previous role.
Data from Opta underlines the scale of the danger, giving Tottenham a 27.1 percent chance of relegation, with 17th place currently their most likely finishing position. Their tally of 30 points from 31 games is also historically poor, matching their joint-lowest return at this stage of a league campaign.
Amid that backdrop, Sherwood - who managed Spurs during the 2013-14 season - has made it clear he believes survival is still well within reach.
"I would keep them in the Premier League," he said. "I believe that someone with common sense keeps them in the Premier League.
"They have the quality to be able to do it. You have to get them feeling good again, you have to get the confidence in the group."
Tottenham have three weeks to regroup before a crucial trip to Sunderland on April 12, giving the hierarchy time to decide whether to persist with Tudor or make another managerial change. Reports suggest the club have even revisited the idea of appointing a permanent head coach before the end of the season, with Roberto De Zerbi among the names under consideration.
Sherwood, who previously expressed interest in returning to the club, also laid out a clear and direct approach he believes would stabilise the team-focusing heavily on structure and defensive discipline.
"It's not complicated, you drill them every single day - 11 vs 11 so they know exactly where their positions are," he said.
"When Micky (van de Ven) starts dribbling mazily and taking the ball up the field, you stop him. If he is having to do that and (Cristian) Romero is having to burst forward, it's because we are not doing something right up there.
"Stay in your positions, keep your clean sheet first and foremost. If you can't win the game, don't lose it. Keep them organised."
Sherwood was also critical of team selection decisions, questioning the omission of Xavi Simons - who had scored twice in a midweek Champions League fixture - highlighting wider concerns about player management during a critical period.
With just seven games remaining, Tottenham's fight for survival is finely poised, and the coming weeks could prove decisive both for their Premier League status and the future direction of the club.
