ALC Fox Posted 18 June 2021 Share Posted 18 June 2021 I really don't understand why Spurs aren't seriously considering Graham Potter. Yes, he doesn't have 'top-level' experience but that's clearly not a deciding factor considering how the Mourinho appointment turned out and the calibre of managers they've recently considered (Fonseca, Gattuso). What Potter did at Ostersunds was remarkable. He built not just a team but a culture. He's doing the same now at Brighton and, while they're not necessarily better off in terms of league position, he's transformed their style of play and it's widely regarded that they're a top striker away from being a very good Premier League side. After Mourinho was sacked, Levy spoke about 'values' and a 'Tottenham identity' (to paraphrase). For me, Potter is the perfect candidate if given a couple of seasons and proper money to build a good footballing side and reconnect them with their supporters. He's certainly up there as who I'd want to replace Rodgers if he were to move on any time soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's certainly up there as who I'd want to replace Rodgers if he were to move on any time soon. He'd be mental to go there. He'd be a great choice for a long term project of course but Levy has proven that he wouldn't back him in the transfer window. Pochettino was their best manager in a generation with their best squad in a generation, and even after the miracle/fluke of reaching the CL final THAT was the time to really back him. That was Levy's once in a lifetime moment to really go for it but he ****ed it up as usual. The fans would want Potter out after 18 months anyway too. It's a poisoned chalice. Which is why they can't fill the post still. I can see him being a very good fit for Everton, but they behind the scenes problems of their own. He'd be gone after 18 months. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambert09 Posted 18 June 2021 Share Posted 18 June 2021 Surely Spurs should just accept they’ve messed up and give the gig to mason. The fans would get behind him, theyd save some money and they can focus on a proper manager search for next summer. It would be embarrassing to accept the job as a 5th choice (or worse) so they won’t get anyone of a top level now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katieakita Posted 18 June 2021 Share Posted 18 June 2021 That Gattuso is some bloke remember him being as hard as nails so not a Spurs type of guy, just shows how disliked Spurs are though worldwide when this guy quits a job after 3 weeks just so Spurs can offer him ther job for him just to turn it down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
