Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
They also had a great chance for top 4 last season before they imploded.
Thought they may be the Jamie Vardy team - but perhaps the James Maddison team.
He got injured at the back end of last season and they only won 2 of those last 6 games he missed. Which as you say ended up costing them top 4 when they were in a pretty comfortable position.
The two league games this season that he's missed they have failed to pick up points (3-0 loss to West Ham, 1-1 draw with Palace) - and they were without him yesterday for the embarrassing Prague result.
Err you look at his record and circumstances.
He's improved 2 separate clubs without a blank chequebook
I was under the impression RBL were very much paying their way up the pyramid?
I just love his football it’s a joy to watch but this video is quite a good demo of what he is about.
I guess you can only base it on what style of football he would likely bring, if he has proven to get the best out of his players in the past and what he has achieved with smaller clubs in terms of turning them around.
He was 29 years old or so when given the head coach job at Hoffenheim. They were 7 points from safety in the Bundesliga with 14 games to go. They won 7 of them and stayed up.
Following year? He had them finish 4th and qualify for the Champions League. Following year? They finished 3rd.
At RB Leipzig in his first full year, he had them finish 3rd and got them to a Champions League semi final. At the age of 32. This season, his second year, he has them 2nd in the Bundesliga just 2 points behind Bayern Munich.
Now, he may just be a 6 year prodigy and may not amount to nothing.
But is it really worth running the risk of missing out on him? Especially if he WANTS to come?
They did to an extent (why they are so hated in Germany) but it's been aided by brilliant scouting and an extremely modern outlook.
They've sold Werner and Keita for a combined £105mil - basically Germany's Leicester if you think about it.
RB Leipzig - All transfers
This page shows all ever transfers of the RB Leipzig, including arrivals, departures and loans. It also displays the transfer fees.
Only spent over €20 on a player once and that was paid to the sister Red Bull Salzburg club.
I find it insane that people are questioning it. especially if we give him a young hungry group,
Well because within every club there are strong and weak points.
For me what keeps Southampton respectable are Hassenhuttl's brave coaching, Ings being an excellent goal getter and good solid players like Vestegaard, KWP and JWP. They don't have the player quality to be consistently good for long stretches.
Do you judge Spurs by the level of a Harry Kane and the potential/talent of an N'Dombele or do you judge Spurs by the level of a Matt Doherty?
Hmmm so it comes down to Nagglesmann and Rodgers. In the Germans favour made his teams attractive and competitive on reasonably small budget. In Rodgers favour, made his teams attractive and competitive on reasonably small budget. Tie breaker the stupid jacket or the Trans mistress and David Brent like pronouncements.....
Naggelsmann it is. COYS!!
Naggelsmann it is. COYS!!
what's the ideal stepping stone between Brighton and Spurs though?
because if I said we should buy bissouma, (IMO their best player) then you wouldn't be saying that.
Poch, Redknapp and Jol, Spurs was the biggest job that they had all taken on. They were the best for us.
the tie breaker is Nagelsmann doesn't choke at the end of the season and seems to be pretty good in Europe.Hmmm so it comes down to Nagglesmann and Rodgers.

Rodgers doesn't appeal to me at all tbh.
But does he have and envelope with a temporally displaced Shrodingers list of names. Didn't think so...
Honestly I'd rather Gerrard over Rodgers.
He's actually taken the time to learn his craft in the Liverpool youth and he's improved Rangers immeasurably, last 16 of Europa and ending Celtic's domestic dominance in such emphatic fashion can't be overlooked.
Rodgers took an dominant Celtic and made them even more dominant, but failed badly in Europe, something their board really wanted.

Improved RBL is quite debatable
Dear lord I actually threw up in my mouth at the thought of Gerrard as our coach. I don't want anyone tainted with Liverpool any where near us. Nagglesmann with Ragnik as D.O.F has always been my preference. Followed by Potter( there's something about Potter that makes me think he will end up very big indeed.) But he needs a Southampton sized job first. Gerrard would be openly waiting to replace Klopp and tapping up Scarlet and Son.
