If so, isn't happening. Imagine being told, after we had just won 9-0 at St. Mary's, that we would go on to sign their centre-half, fullback, head of recruitment and manager. You'd think they were mad. 2

volpeazzurro Posted 30 January Posted 30 January 3 hours ago, ACF said: Serial winner, culture setter, takes no rubbish from players. Builds players into better players than they are. Witnessed it since his Brisbane Roar days. Don’t buy into the media rubbish about his style of play. It is more pragmatic than they let on. Spurs have done really well in the Prem since he left yeah? Serial winner where and with who? Anyone or anything of note? Yes, he did well at Celtic but that’s hardly difficult is it, even the charlatan Rodgers managed that yet his previous record didn’t count for much either did it! So we’re counting Tottenham as a success are we because despite finishing 17th, he won a trophy? Who actually took part in that again remind me because unlike other years where certain good teams, having dropped out of the more prestigious competition, didn’t do so last year. Who did they manage to beat in the final? Oh yes, an equally underperforming poor side! As we’re a team leaking goals from every orifice can you please explain how a manager with his track record and style of play is going to improve us? I note that he hasn’t seemingly had many suitors gagging for his signature since his departure.

markko Posted 30 January Posted 30 January All these pages and names and the week has passed. Nothing. Window closes Monday. I expect the same result. We better hope Andy King is up to it because he is going to need to be. I hope he does a decent job because he doesn't deserve to have his reputation tarnished. I think it was a big risk getting rid of Marti when they did but what do I know? 1

That was my ambition and I was prepared to wear it if it did not happen.” Culture setter. Pochettino got them to a Champions League final and still finished 4th. Limp excuse from Ange to justify their worst league finish in decades.

The Doctor Posted 30 January Posted 30 January 11 hours ago, BrilliantFox said: These lot will laugh at Ange who finally broke Spurs' trophy curse and finished Top 5 in his first season despite losing Harry Kane. While at the same time they will approve of Rowett and a PE teacher from Lutterworth College Won titles across the globe, won the Europa League at Spurs, WILL win silverware if hired at Leicester City. more laugh at the suggestion he'd consider us. Like forest was a disaster but that's not torched his reputation so much that he couldn't get a better job than a team heading for a relegation battle to avoid league one

I note that he hasn’t seemingly had many suitors gagging for his signature since his departure. I’m not going to list them out, I’m not your Wikipedia. Just because you don’t know the players or teams names, do not mean they’re nothing achievements. It is a world game, not a game focused on Western Europe. Bielsa only coached in South America until he a got a national team job, à la Ange, but he’s rubbish too right? The players are of lower standards, of course. But if you looked at the way Ange played with these ‘lower quality’ teams, it is somewhat more impressive to get them to play with the structure, skill and energy that he did. And for the (defensive) record, Ange’s flaw at Spurs was the fact Van de Ven and Romero could not stay fit, and they had no back up. When they both played together, they were a top 6 defence. Frank’s got the performing exceptionally though hasn’t he… I encourage you to not diminish the rest of the world’s ability in this sport. I am of course biased being based in Melbourne, but I know very, very well what that man can do. He also helped destroy Forest, does that not get bonus points? It’s all wishful thinking on my part it’s never going to happen. 1
Sol thewall Bamba Posted 30 January Posted 30 January (edited) Our managerial turnover is crazy in recent years, I know we're not the only ones to be fair. On our Wikipedia page we have 57 manager spells listed over our history, some caretakers in more recent years but I don't know if there were ones earlier in our history that weren't included, or if caretaker's weren't really a thing in the 20th century for example. The midpoint of those 57 managers is between Brian Little and Mark McGhee. That means we've had as many managers in the last 32 years as we did for our first 110 years. 28 mangers in 32 years, and Pearson makes up 6 of those years. Edited 30 January by Sol thewall Bamba 1

You've said this about 5 times now - I'm sure you think it's very funny - but he's also been Director of Football at arguably the best sporting university in the country, his work with the England national Futsal team was impressive, he's worked with England u18s, he's worked with Leeds u21s and been their interim manager, and his current side are only 12 places below us in the football pyramid, where he's done a stellar job with very little budget, outperforming lots of historically bigger clubs. He's not just a PE teacher from Lutterworth College is he? It's like calling Postecoglu a Australian lower league manager because that's where he started out. Incidentally I don't think we should be looking at a manager who lost 60% of his games in his final season with a historically top 6 club and recorded their lowest ever lowest ever finish in football's modern era, before going to our rivals and losing nearly every single game and getting sacked after a month. 4
