Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Only watched the opening five minutes, expecting more action, is this like Debbie Does Rome?
Their hotels are some of the best north of Russia i am told.....
I dont have a good feeling about him, like as a person. Just hopeful that the football is going to be better.
Define "better"?
Actually watchable?...
Watched very little of Roma, I remember that once he made 6 subs in a cup game when he could use only 5 and lost 0-3 automatically.
They lost 2-4 on the pitch anyway for what it's worth.
Lost majority of the games vs teams above Roma on the table, only one win vs Lazio. Iirc it was reported that their board was not happy with his record vs these teams and one of the reasons he was sacked.
I hope he does well at Spurs.

I would have agreed with your points up to a few months ago. But I'm sorry to say that I now feel that the handling of recent events (new manager, pricing and location of Villa tickets, the contrived interview) has been nothing short of atrocious. He has lost the support of several of his strongest advocates, which I was one.
Agree with all that,and i'll add the ESL to that as well.
The tumbleweed is blowing and no sign of the arrival of a “coach” absolutely no one wanted
If I think back to that day I recall it was the Woolwich thing we fans hated, not the fact he was underwhelming or no good. At the time he was about as “big” a manager was we could imagine getting.
Unlike now, when they genuinely have appointed a sick joke.
Mourinho was class. It's just we suck on every level.
Same for me Mrs P. I was never particulaly a fan as they made too many mistakes like Stratford, sacking Jol at half time, not backing Redknapp and Poch when we were close to real glory. Broadly though there was an upward trajectory from 2001 to about 2016. I didnt really want them gone though, a Saudi takeover never appealed. Since then and especially the last year we're regressing and on the pitch we look close to where they found us. Letting Mourinho fester on for months, the ESL, the way they handled the tickets for Villa, the managerial search and that video basically saying this is our lot for the forseeable is enough for me. I'm staggered anyone can still really support them now.
Why are you not on the Roma boards with the rest of the Mourinistas?
If it was a Ferrari it was up on bricks, vandalised, past its best with cock piss mourinho sprayed down the side.
No he wasn't. He was totally worthless
I've been to Ukraine on holiday. Great country and lovely people
Because I hate the football Mourinho plays, I hate his way of handling people in the team, throwing people under the bus and that was the second year, the year he always loses it.
But maybe you are right, I was probably hoping that he would have changed. The weakness of people. Always hoping.
This coming season I'm hoping that Paratici has an eye for football, that he's choice of coach is a really good choice, that new players are players that will make an impact, that we will be rid of Sissoko (and others) and that we will play a brand of football that I enjoy watching. And that I can come to London at the new stadium and see Spurs live.
