Our attempt to sign a new manager is turning out to be a real saga like The Illiad.

No, he's not.
If you don't believe me, record everything he says that's not already widely reported.
When you get those very few snippets then compare his comments to what really happens.
He will have a very low hit rate at best.
Any fucking pleb can read the news, wait until it gathers pace, say you've heard it's true and take the accolade IF it happens.
No one ever calls him or the others out in the huge number of cases that it doesn't happen.
Is he?
Others know more about these guys than I do but I remember him getting a lot wrong or being very vague so that he says nothing at all but says it means he is right.
I think he gets a lot of credit because of him supposedly being the brother of a board member but that doesn’t mean he gets any actual information.
Im just resigned on martinez
agreed. This JJ etset has this almost god like status on Spurs community where they hang on every word he says on Twitter. He barely posts and when he does, it’s so vague it could mean it goes either way, so he never actually confirms anything properly. It’s all “possibly could happen “ … “ he’s of interest “ etc etc, it’s never full on concrete info. He chats bulls** just like the other supposed ITK’s.
we are a shambles if we want ten hag we shouldve got him ages ago and bedded in his methods, if we wanted conte levy shouldve shown ambition and got him in. everyone raving on gasperini good manager but i dont think levy will finance his wheelchair for on pitch use. its a joke and the longer this drags the more southgate and martinez get closer
Not a chance. I feel pretty certain now Hitchen’s list is in the bin.
We might do something stupid, but it will be Paratici’s brand of stupid.
Pirlo rumors incoming
I don't think he is any less credible than anyone saying we are going back to talk with Ten Hag, but I don't remember who it was that was pushing that narrative.
To me Ten Hag makes zero sense with Paratici. I would say he more than anyone seems like would be a no go with the switch from Hitchen's list to Paratici running the show.
hes the biggest gamble out there, only coached real madrid who were gimped with superstars. would be interesting tho and i would take him over 80% of our targets would command respect instantlyPotential new signing Marcus Thuram is French, son of a France legend who won the world cup and euros and played alongside a certain guy who recently left Real Madrid
Utter joke.
i know a few on here want gasperini but is it worth the gamble the guys in his sixties and has only managed in italy. while i enjoy his football i dont think he will have the time here like he has at atalanta.
Bringing in Paratici to end up with Martinez would be baffling.
I'm not saying that it isn't possible based on Levy but I would think there would be at least a minimal level of thinking when making this decision.
I think there will be a mistake made in the hiring but as
FightingIllini
rightfully points out it will be a different type of mistake from the Howe, Martinez. Southgate errors that we were looking at before bringing him in.
A Pirlo or other random European guy wtih Serie A links and no PL experience is a more likely error. I will say I am praying that Pirlo was an Agnelli decision or that could be the disaster we end up with.

Perhaps I'm following the wrong 'ITKs' on social media, but...
