What happens if we get someone who actually knows what they're doing? Might not be Howe, might be.
We can all see the game passes Nuno by every week. He's the most passive coach I've ever seen. Pick players, when the whistle goes watches a film on netflix on his phone.

So you want Nuno to show more passion on the touchline?

If we get Howe or whomever until the end of the season, and they are more animated on the touchline it doesn't mean we're going to be playing better or winning more.

To me the problem seems to be the players, they ought not need Nuno to gee them up to play a NLD.

Another problem imo is that our best player doesn't want to be here, and we don't have many options to sub him with, which will be the same for Eddie Howe or whoever.

We don't know if LevyParatici aren't interfering with team tactics and selections.

Passion? I want him to actually acknowledge the game plan isn't working. He's sat on his arse, seemingly oblivious to the fact teams are playing us off the pitch.
Every single Spurs fan could see within 5 minutes that Woolwich were gonna score a hatful of goals but he waited until half time to do anything at all. At which point we were dead and buried and Woolwich could walk the rest of the game.
He did nothing Vs Palace.
He did nothing Vs Wolves twice.
When Chelsea switched up and dominated us, he did nothing until it was already 2-0

Ask a Wolves fan what they think of his ability to know when it isn't working and fix it.

My prediction is Kane gets untracked and scores some goals, the team wins a few games now and again, and management uses the occasional success to rationalize keeping Nuno the rest of the season. Under pressure people revert to their established habits and, in Nuno's case, I think he'll try get back to his defensive stategies and play games not to lose. It will be boring, it will be unproductive, and it will set the team back a year but that's where we are. And I think Kane will get his wish in the next transfer window. Levy will keep Paratici, keep Nuno until the off season, and write it all off as a rebuilding year.

So do you think Nuno will end up playing 3-5-2?

This is the major problem. The Conference League could keep this clown in a job.

I will always want Spurs to win and I'll watch every game. But that's my fear as well, that we end up in some 10th place spot that the team is neither good nor bad the rest of this season. Maybe the best thing would be to bring in a retired coach with credibility and have him spend the rest of the season assessing the squad and putting things in as much order as possible.

When we played wolves the supporters were holding up banners thanking Nuno for his time with them.

At the very least in the backline. Almost our entire defensive personell has experience playing in a 3 at the back + wingback system. The question is how do you set up the midfield and attack to get the most out of it with our current players.

If Kane was not playing the logical answer in my opinion is a 3-4-3 and play Gil, Son, Lucas up top. Three fast, rapid players that can press and bomb up on the counter as well with the help of the wing backs.

If Kane plays it becomes a bit trickier to set up since he doesn't have the explosiveness and pace of a few years ago.

I mean this is the whole insane bullshit of it all. We have hired a hyper defensive manager for Paratici and told him to play attacking football for Daniel Levy under pressure from
fans.

Like getting a Land Rover to race F1. He would do better just being himself and play the boring crap if it gets results.

He really is a poor fit, and so is Paratici if this is his idea of an appropriate coach.

Maybe if we play 3-5-2 we can dominate more of the MF area. Play Kane and Son as the tall guy, short guy combo up front.
