ETH is definitely an exciting option. Fits the Spurs module and is still a relatively young manager but with the experience of managing a top club, albeit in a weak league, but still has managed a club in the CL and took them far. He’s the only manager now that would put me back on board, although I’ll still be pissed at the club for this mess. Ten Haag is the only one for me now.
Well he’s obviously more accomplished because he coached teams with 10x the budget.Oh come on, Sarri is certainly a better option than Potter.
Consistently did very well with Napoli playing great football, EL title and top 3 with Chelsea, won a title with Juve.
You're right he would definitely require a lot more investment than Potter but he's a much more accomplished manager and it's not really close.
Ali Gold had a good piece this morning about this (not that I can be arsed to find it and link it here)Levy saw the funds Conte wanted and then
He wanted it.......along with unlimited transfer funds!
This is such a nonsense notion.Of course, but he would only be here for a couple years at most, and god knows what he would leave behind in his wake that we would be left with.
Hmmm... The 'Uncle' thing humanises him.I honestly think Covid fucked us good. We know Uncle Joe is a tight arse motherfucker so the stadium with NFL, sponsorship and gigs was a giant cash cow. All of that was to be used to fund everything along with expected CL football which we don’t have either, now all of it is gone at least for now.
Because Joe won’t back us we now are limited and so Conte terrifies Levy. One of the best managers in the World but one Uncle Joe won’t help us with, he won’t even loan us cash for transfers against future stadium income. Between Covid and Uncle Joe we are broke.

This is such a nonsense notion.
Juventus won SIX TITLES IN A ROW after the Conte hurricane blew out of town.
Just win. Just get better. If it doesn't work, rinse and repeat. There is nothing else.
In that case, I would appreciate it if you could attempt to perform coitus upon my own being whilst one or other (or both) of us is posed obliquely or in a slanting fashion.In other news, Pope Francis is reported to belong to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church, while carnivoran mammals of the Ursidae family are believed to be prone to defecating in forested areas
You can be OK and over rated. Being over rated doesn't make him the worst.Because he is a much better manager that plays a style that is much more likely to work at Spurs than Houghton.
I know Potter has been cast as the worst manager in the history of sports by many but this is getting ridiculous now.

I'm not saying we should go off records but I think it's fair to say a couple things:That’s because your comparing apples and oranges. Potter is more Rogers at Swansea, an up and coming mananger with very modern ideas, a great style of football. He took Ostersund 4 divisions up and got them Into Europe and has Brighton playing some of the best football in the league. Sarri by contrast is more established.
When Poch got sacked Ally Gold who is seen as a mouth piece of the club confirmed we had either Jose or Nagelsmann to look at. We choose the more experienced in Jose and ignored his football was out of date while Naglesmann who hasn’t won anything big but showed he could get a great tune out of average players with a very classy style of football was left. Jose and Nagelsmann are big names by far than Sarri or Potter but it’s a similar choice.
Going off record is fools game if the club is different. We don’t have large funds to spend, this isn’t the Italian league, we need a Poch mark 2. Someone who can play attacking football, work with lesser players and younger players and fit long term. Potter may not be the answer but he much closer aligns to it than Sarri. Ten Hag is probably the best bet at this stage but he may think we are a joke now.
That's very kind of you - I'm hopping onto my jet right away.The missus is getting her jab in a bit, if you can make it round here before 8pm I'll do my best.
At the very least you'll get some decent grub and a drinkable €4 Rioja
