Levy has to just pay Iraola whatever is needed, give him the necessary budget and then faaaack off on a 10 year holiday - preferably somewhere with no internet or mobile phone connection. Every few months Levy’s versions of speckled Jim will turn up with a little note attached - which we will promptly shoot and eat.
in 10 years time he can come back and complain about how much those trophies have cost us

Not sure what the clamour is for Iraola.
Yes, he is currently doing well with Bournemouth.
They are 6th at the moment but could drop down to 8th when the other teams play their game in hand.
He got them to 12th last season.
We are at the half way mark now so where do you think they will end up? Probably between 6th-12th at a guess.
It is very good for a team like Bournemouth but nothing special. They lost to West Ham in the first round of the league cup.
He has never won anything as a manager and was sacked from his first job.
He lasted a year in his first job and he left after one year in his second job. He did last 3 years in his third job where he got a spanish team promoted from div 2.
As I say he is doing well but not exactly pulling up trees.
He plays good football which I think is something we have to have rather than a conservative coach but I think it would be a massive risk.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He is improving at each club, plays good football, adapts to situations well and would seemingly be happy working with our budget.
I get Poch vibes from him and I think he is the manager we need for the rebuild - whether he can win a trophy is another story, but I think 3 seasons with him in charge and we will be in a much better shape as a club
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can't say 3 seasons because if he doesn't have a good start we can clearly see with spurs fans that they will turn very quickly.
Rebuild or not, injuries or not, fans will turn.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I do fully see why any fan would look at Ange's time 'coaching' Spurs and see it's not been great at all, fully fit squad or not since the Chelsea game last season, we've been pretty shat actually. Therefore, I don't think, one and half seasons into his tenure is 'pretty quick' to assess that almost every other side in the Prem has sussed out Ange's game plan?
I'm not an Ange in or out, personally, I want him to get to the end of this season, two full seasons, long enough I think to gauge. Currently,, as a win/loss percentage, we'll be lucky to even reach the conference euro whatever the fack it is but you never know, other teams might have a fall from grace second half of this season and help us? Our fate for the finale of this season is in as much their hands as it is our own

We are sleep walking towards a relegation fight.
I mentioned many times ange has a touch of Christian Gross about him and obviously the huge article about points per game has come out. Maybe Kane will come back like Klinsmann and save us?
We are an embarrassment everyone should be calling for his head. Then call for the head of Lange, Munn and Levy.
Paratici rejoins us in the summer, i fear Allegri is our next manager.

I think the most damning stat for Ange among all the terrible stuff you can list off, is that we are the only team in the league that hasn't gone more than 2 games unbeaten since March last year (we're as good as in the new year). Saints and Leicester are the only other teams who haven't this season. That's 2 newly promoted teams who already sacked their managers.
I see that Newcastle are coming to us in top form as well so prepare for another loss on Saturday.
