Hollism Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 I think BR is holding out for the Man City job in a year or two tbh. Spurs have a world class stadium obviously but we have an equally world class training complex. If you’re Brendan, would you swap? Spurs certainly don’t have any more money in the pot than we do in the current climate (if they sack Mou and buy out BR). They’re a more attractive club on paper but with us much more likely to get CL then them for next season, it’s not gonna happen. Man City or Chelsea will be his next job. We’ve got at least another full season of him yet to come.
Paninistickers Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 Not a chance. I'm not sure we as fans get the reality here. BR is living the dream. Working with elite players and pitting his wits against elite managers, on a level. As a peer. As a rival. We're not punching above our weight. We are punching AT our weight. 3

It wasn't really a strange time, he was coasting, he had nothing left there to prove, he'd won basically everything on easy mode and a seriously attractive job in the Premier League was offered by a highly upwardly mobile club with resources and a high potential squad. The timing didn’t sit well with a lot of people and Rodgers does have previous of jumping ship, that’s why I said nothing surprises me.
Guest Col city fan Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 Moanrinho can’t be sacked AGAIN surely? He’s making a bloody fortune out doing crappy at clubs and getting obscene pay offs! Perhaps that’s his plan...
HighPeakFox Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 I think it would be fair to suggest that this thread is the most Spursy thing going, even on a night where Spurs have been VERY Spursy.
Stadt Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 It'd be a sideways move him at this stage, realistically the jobs that would interest him in England are the two Manchester clubs and Chelsea. United seem content with OGS (thankfully) and the other two aren't going to be changing their managers soon. There's an outside chance he'd return to Liverpool but I think a move abroad is possible, he speaks Spanish and is learning Italian iirc. At the minute, we're as upwardly mobile as he is so for the short-medium term he's staying.
Guest Col city fan Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 As others have said, I don’t see Spurs as a particularly good option at the moment They are delusional, are financially crippled by the new stadium and don’t have a great squad. I can’t see Rodgers leaving City for Spurs anytime soon
King of Gipsy Lane Posted 18 March 2021 Posted 18 March 2021 Shit this rubbish down ! Brendan is too clever to go to that mad club ! seriously this is never happening

The timing didn't sit well with the Celtic fans for sentimental reasons, not because it didn't make sense for footballing ones. And like I said, even if you think Rodgers is a complete and total mercenary (he doesn't have previous of jumping ship at all, he took two better jobs when they were offered because they were great opportunities), there's no reason for a mercenary to go to Spurs right now from Leicester. The Fighting Cock can troll and cry and rage and scream and deny all they want, Tottenham are not a more attractive prospect than Leicester right now for a manager and we're getting to the point where they barely are for a player, either.
