Poch isn't going to go public to ask to leave PSG nor should he. He is too professional for that and we can't expect him to beg to get out of a club he once captained to come crawling back after we unfairly fucked him out not that long ago.

Just get Conte and back him. We're the 9th richest club in the world, start fucking acting like it.
 
How come it took Madrid what seemed like one phone call to get ancelotti out of his 3 year deal? Doesn't seem like everton could do anything. No statements or intention to leave to be announced by ancelotti. Just we want you as our manager, here's the compensation, mucho gracias. Yet poch has to write an essay saying why he wants to leave and broadcast it to the nation.

Good point. It's almost as if the 'media types' are making shit up.

PSG aren't going to come out and say Poch has asked to leave. They don't want to look silly.
Poch isn't going to go public and state he wants to leave, he has more respect than that.

Much has been made of the poor relationship between Poch and Leonardo & the owner. The club aren't going to keep an unhappy manager.
 
Just bet the house that Everton announce their new manager before we do.

They and all the rest post as many possible outcomes as the mind can conceive and in the event one pans our, they point to them calling it first.

Why on earth are so many people on here posting nameless twitter accounts?

I might set one up and see how much I can get poster on here and how many knickers I can get twisted.

Ha!

There was a Twitter account a few years back Agent_ITK, went from nothing to around 30,000 followers in a few weeks I think, even mentioned on Talksport.

Turns out it was just some bloke having a laugh and he came clean.

Real Madrid taking the manager of the 10th placed team in the PL is a bit different from Tottenham trying to take the manager of PSG.

Because Levy is doing what he always does, people are expecting him to suddenly change, like he has had some sort of epiphany and he has realised that he must now do whatever it takes to win because the narrative is that "Levy must get it right, or else..."

But the question is, or else what? Levy knows nothing will happen regardless so he is dragging his feet, just like he does with transfers trying to squeeze the best deal possible instead of doing what it takes to get us setup for success.

Fucking ridiculous, he has had weeks upon weeks to sort it out, the transfer window opens in 7 days time and personally I think the whole reason we are even being linked to Poch was to squeeze a few more renewals out of the supporters.

We are likely going to end up missing out and stuck with a very uninspiring manager.

Conte will not come here unless Levy is willing to spend the cash and Levy made it very clear in his end of season message that we will only spend from funds generated from the stadium.
 
Probably time to forget about thinking about this, get on with our lives and when it happens it happens?

Maybe it is Levy's plan to make me feel apathetic with everything to do with THFC. He's even managed to make the new manager search as boring as fuck. All it is doing is going round in circles every day.

I reckon we are going to appoint Poch today. With season ticket renewal deadline tomorrow Spurs need to appoint a manager sooner rather than later and PSG know this so they are looking for us to pay.
