Spend a billion on a stadium and were scratching around for a manager. Like buying a 6 bedroom house but cant buy the furniture.
Well, the stadium is for the incoming NFL, boxing and concerts. We're considered the poor cousins by our owners. Throwing us scraps. I can see our games being rescheduled to let the more important events have prime time slots. We'll be playing Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning. On Hackney Marshes probably.
 
Because he was a major factor in the development of the RB system which has produced a lot of talent and brought in many players, for cheap prices and turned them into quality players. Look at the list of players posted on the previous page that he was linked to bringing in.

Now admittedly that is more of a case for him being DOF, but considering that is exactly what we need and is arguably more important than getting a new manager, I think a lot of people are hoping that whether he is manager or DOF that he would bring those skills.

I also think that since he turned down Chelsea for not meeting his requirements when they offered him their position that if he came to Tottenham he would do so only if Levy gave him guarantees on how things would work. He has been linked to other jobs and turned them down so it doesn't appear that he is desperate to just get any job.

Edit:

Forgot to add his influence on a lot of the coaches having success around Europe and a style that is having success and likely the way most fans want to see us play.
Sounds ideal. Levy won't have him. We might become good.
 
I don't want Gross point blank.
Rolling Stone says it's "a bright burst of action and comedy!"

Couldnt give a shit about other stuff going on at stadium. Trophies, good memories and the beer flowing at tottenham high road with all the fans celebrating winning year after year. Its time for levy to pass baton and hand over to another owner who can take us to the final level. Meanwhile leicester losing to 10 man southampton. Is rodgers really that good?
 
Rangnick is in his 60s, has barely coached in the last ten years, apart from a couple of short stints at Leipzig. This was his last long term job:

"Schalke began the 2011–12 season by defeating Borussia Dortmund in a shootout in the 2011 DFL-Supercup. On 22 September 2011, Rangnick stepped down as Schalke's coach due to exhaustion syndrome, stating he did not have "the necessary energy to be successful and to develop the team and the club". He finished with a record of ten wins, three draws and ten losses"

The PL is a much more stressful league to manage in than the Bundersliga.

His only major honour is a German Cup. He's someone who's influenced great coaches without having all the tools to be one himself. He has no experience at all outside Germany.

This could end up being like Santini. As a DOF, it would be a great appointment, as a manager/coach it'd be a terrible one I think.

He also grew up on a farm
