Conte would only take the Spurs job to get at the Chelsea board .....but he surely has too much respect for the Chelsea fans to manage Spurs (and too much sense) surely he will be in Paris or Madrid next ....

Dan LCFC Posted 28 May 2021 Share Posted 28 May 2021 12 hours ago, urban.spaceman said: Levy spent £12.5m sacking Pochettino to bring in Mourinho at £15m a year to win trophies. Levy then sacked Mourinho 6 days before a cup final because he thought he'd be able to afford it with the Super League money. But the Super League collapsed and he owes Jose £15m+ as severance not to mention his staff. You're looking at £60m spent just on hiring and firing managers. Honestly, the next time I hear somebody call him shrewd. Maybe once upon a time but he's absolutely lost it in the last couple of seasons. The timing of covid has probably hit them more than any other Premier League club. I think they're going to end up with Graham Potter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bloke is way too impressed by himself and thinks he’s some kind of intellectual. He’s a pillock that talks so much he occasionally makes sense. A bit like monkeys, typewriters and Shakespeare. He's about the only person on talk sport that talks any sense. Annoying but knows what he's talking about and gives a club owners insight which I enjoy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a Juventus legend and took the Inter job and those two despise each other, so I wouldn't be so sure that he'd turn it down on a respect basis. He may not fancy it for plenty of other reasons, though. Edited 28 May 2021 by David Guiza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koke Posted 28 May 2021 Share Posted 28 May 2021 (edited) Simon Jordan is very predictable. I always know which side of an argument he's on before even listening to him Defend owners at all cost. He defends scrubs like the Glazers and Mike Ashley in a roundabout way by attacking the fans of the club. Attacks players wages 24/7. Players are the root of all evil, second only to agents. There are billions of pounds in this game, I think it's pretty fair that the top players like KDB or Kane get £300k a week or whatever. Jordan would prefer the owners pocketed that money for themselves I guess. Man has a blind hatred for agents and modern day players.

AKCJ Posted 28 May 2021 Share Posted 28 May 2021 Simon Jordan is an egotistical willy puller. Can't believe people enjoy listening to him. Has he ever started a conversation without pointing out that he once owned a Premier League club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not one of these idiots who thinks that footballers should earn less than soldiers, nurses, police officers etc. Top level footballers should earn significantly more money than normal people. For starters, their careers are over before they hit 38 and the competition just to become a professional footballer is ridiculous, let alone a world class one. However, I cannot justify any footballer earning around £300k a week, especially when there are clubs as high up as championship that are close to going under.

You can't really fault their league campaign. Their squad is nowhere near as good as Man City's and I wouldn't put it as the 2nd best in the league either. They clearly have an issue getting over the line, but I certainly don't think he's done a bad job overall. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
