Next Spurs Manager : Latest Odds.

Beg Alonso to come

Failing that ask Iraola

Failing that ask Frank

Failing that ask Potter

Failing that ask Poch back

Failing that ask Silva

Failing that ask Southgate

Failing that ask Mason

Failing that stick with Ange

This is what the level of ambition our chairman has and what he probably feels is acceptable.

Sorry but this is not a "winner" mentality nor someone who really wants sporting success as far as I am concerned.

This is not from me but words from Hugo Lloris, our ex captain no less.

----------

We do all have one engraved memory, though. Four days before the final, Daniel Levy called us all together to announce that, with the support of a sponsor, we would each receive a luxury aviator watch from the club. At first, we were excited to see the elegant boxes. Then we opened them and discovered that he’d had the back of each timepiece engraved with the player’s name and “Champions League Finalist 2019”. “Finalist.” Who does such a thing at a moment like this? I still haven’t got over it, and I’m not alone. If we’d won, he wouldn’t have asked for the watches back to have “Winner” engraved instead.
I have considerable respect and esteem for the man and all he has done for the club as chairman – I got to know him – but there are things he is simply not sensitive to. As magnificent as the watch is, I have never worn it. I would have preferred there to be nothing on it. With an engraving like that, Levy couldn’t have been surprised if we had been 1–0 down after a couple of minutes.

Sums the guy up from a footballing point of view. Would rather take part than win. Loser!

Wow!

Ange is only the Spurs manager because he fits all the criteria of a Levy appointment, he doesn`t demand big spending or massive changes, he had a cheap buyout and he was delighted to accept the biggest job of his career, and is clearly a "yes man".

The likes of Nagelsmann or Slot were available, but in Slot`s case Levy would not pay the release fee and in the case of Nagelsmann would not agree to wholesale changes in club structure / coaching etc.

Ange played attacking football and was cheaper, he was less likely to kick up a fuss or bring many demands.

It all falls back to Levy, he appoints managers for the wrong reasons, attempts to cut corners and has a punt rather than a clear plan.

Levy out.

Rumours surfacing about Edin Terzic, would fit Levy`s bill, available & free

Terzic has a decent record and for a manager he's young

Young or old wont last 18 months

We want to be looking for the next Poch, who we can hopefully fund better than he was to be able to deliver success. They have to have the right sort of temperament, be attacking, be tactically good, and ideally be on the rise in their careers, not on a downslide.

Terzic actually doesn't sound so bad and was unlucky not to win the Bundesliga. A bit untested though.

Iraola seems the closest to the path that Poch had before coming to us, taking a freshly promoted PL team and getting them high up the table in the following season. I've definitely been impressed with Bournemouth and the way they've played. Should have savaged us 4 or 5 nil.

here are the top managers currently out of work, and the dates they stopped working:

1.


Zinedine Zidane


2021

2.


Massimiliano Allegri


2024

3.


Xavi


2024

4.


Gareth Southgate


2024

5.


Edin Terzic


2024

6.


Erik ten Hag


2024

7.


Roberto Mancini


2024

8.


Sergio Conceicao


2024

9.


Graham Potter


2023

10.


David Moyes


2024

I think any of the top 9 would be better than what we've got! ?
