New Manager?

You're right, it's dangerous to put too much stock in managers' Eredivisie records--sort of like strikers who run riot there but can't produce in England

For example, let’s say that there’s a huge Corned Beef convention in Las Vegas the same weekend that the Patriots are playing against the Lions. With extra Bostonians in Vegas, plus the fact that the Patriots are extremely popular while the Lions aren’t, there’s a decent chance that the Patriots should be favored by 4 or 5, but the casino will set the line at 9 or 10, knowing top matches predictions that plenty of money will still be put down on the Pats’ side. This is an opportunity to take some value back, possibly enough to overcome the -110 vig.

I imagine any new manager is going to want assurances over the futures of Son and Kane at the very least. It's not going to be a particularly attractive prospect to join a club if your star striker is going to be sold.

Erik ten Hag has extended his contract at Ajax until 2023


So that's three out of three targets that are no longer available. I suspect we'll be looking at free agents now - Eddie Howe, Allegri - even Rafa.

We’ll end up with Alan fucking Pardew at this rate.

I'm available and would only charge £500,000 a year.......

My first team to face Sheffield Utd. would be:

Lloris
Tanganga, Toby, Rodon, Reguilon
Hojbjerg, Lo Celso
Son, Dele, Moura
Kane

Bench:
Gazza (is he still with us?) Doherty, Dier, Lamela, Bergwijn, Scarlett, Winks, Bale

Transfer List:
Aurier
Sissoko
N'Dombele
Sanchez

Tactics:
With the ball, 3 at the back guarding the fort - Toby, Rodon and Hojbjerg, Dele and GLC conducting in midfield, full backs pushing up, Son and Moura options attacking inter-changing with Kane in the middle.

Without the ball - 6 man pressing in their half - City style second half against PSG, then 7 behind the ball - defence plus Moura. Quick out ball to Dele, Son in midfield and Kane stays up front.

Simple - That's all my brain can do, and effective.

I'll do it for £499,000....Levy will save a grand...no brainer.

Or Gareth fucking Southgate.

I'm actually intrigued by Potter and Parker, but neither of those two are going to convince any wantaways to stay. Either would signal a full rebuild, which might be where we're headed whether we like it or not.

If they are the choices then Potter for me. Parker needs more time but will make an excellent manager a few years from now.

Is it a coincidence that Alan Pardew and Gareth Southgate have the same middle name?

Rogers I reckon.....wouldn't say no to him.
I wouldn't say no either, but he's publicly ruled himself out and said he wants to stay at Leicester.

Allegedly, even with that, Levy was still said to be "confident" of persuading him until it became apparent that the total cost of securing his signature, if you include wages over 3 or 4 years and compensation, was said to be in the region of £70m. That's why we're said to have "officially" ended our interest.

Well, well, well Mr Daniel Fucking "Football Expert" Levy...!

The 4 top choices have fucked you off so we're back in the fucking bargain bin again, just like the fucking transfer windows you cheap, nasty plastic, piece of shit...

You have well and truly royally fucked this one up haven't you...!!!

You're an absolute fucking thunder cunt of a man...!!!

Get the fuck out of this corporation and give us our club back you slimey shit sack. You and Uncle Joe can suck my salty stump if you think you'll ever get another penny from me you wankers...!

I am very, very tempted to get myself to the last home game and shout obscene things at the vanity project for a few hours...

I'm so angry at the state of our club and what he has consistently done to keep his pockets full at the expense of our history, our traditions and our club.

I don't think I can do this anymore it makes the angry Al come back and people don't fucking like him and he does bad stuff.

Cunts.

I wouldn't put it past Levy to slap a couple of grand on a 100/1 outsider then give him the job - Judas is 100/1.

Brendan Rogers is the current bookies favourite at 4/1 - but why the fuck would he want to come to us and apparently 'we have ruled out our interest' in him. All the others in the odds list are 12/1 and higher, so there isn't not nobody, no fucker wants to be the new Spurs coach.

I read we were supposedly willing to triple Rodgers' wages to £15m a year, so a 3 year deal for that, plus £25m compensation to Leicester ?.

Not happening.

I hate to say it, but i don't think I'd be that disappointed if we appointed Rafa you know. We should still have fucking Poch in charge either way, but out of everyone that's left who we can get in on the cheap, at least Rafa has the experience of the Premier League and has won a few pots along the way.

I know, but what else can we do ?

Eddie Howe ?
I literally have no idea, I've reached a point of Spurs burnout where nothing wants to compute, it's check mate, game over man - game OVER!

I can see nothing will change until Levy goes and I'm holding on to that thought, it's really the only thing keeping me going right now. Perhaps Levy should give it a go, see how easy it is.

Think my top candidate at this point would be Gasperini.

Loves to attack, trains players to brutal levels and has turned Atalanta into goal scoring machines. Dunno if he'd leave Italy though. Pretty sure he's always been there.

I'd take our Spurs Rafa over the Spanish one. He's add a little more edge to our game. If it's the latter Rafa, I'd take a Spurs Sojourn for the duration of his tenure. The last 2 years has been a tonic for insomnia. And time is getting ever so much more valuable if you get what I mean. If I'm going to sit & watch Spurs for 2 hours, it better be worth it & if not exciting, at least interesting.

Lots of talk that our #1 target is under the radar ie hasn't been mentioned in the press yet.
@Glenjamin that could mean someone like Gasperini who I wouldn't be averse to. Likes to play on front foot as opposed to JM's teetering on ones heels.

HORSE SHIT.....

Our number 1 target will be the Bayern Boss next season.

Our number 2 target signed a new 3 year contract with Ajax.

Our number 3 target told us to go fuck ourselves and wouldn't even do it for triple his current pay.

Levy didn't plan for scouring the bargain bin for managers the arrogant fuck.

My money is on Nuno Santos. He has done well with signings and played to his sides strengths.

I don't think I have enough fucks to muster up any serious interest...

Any fucks for Doherty back to his glory?

But yeah, I've thought for a while it would end up being think Nuno. At least he's got a great name. We should come up with some Gregorian chant-type drone for his song.
