With my continuous ability to think so far out of the box people are forever questioning my sanity I’m going for a Klopp / Guardiola double act.

Been too long since there has been a decent duo.

Fuck Batman and Robin, Paul and Debbie, Sherlock and Holmes type double acts.

I’m going full strength. Think more whitehouse and Mortimer, Cheech and Chong. Benson and hedges.

The time has come to break new barriers.

Add my dream team duo to the list please. JurgPep, KlopGuard, PepKlopp.

The name is a work in progress admittedly.
Klep? Peppp? Jurgiola?
 
Sacking Poch was the worst of Levy's many misdemeanors. If instead he had supported him with transfers the way he has supported Conte, I am 100% certain we would have challenged for the title and picked up multiple trophies. Poch was the best fit for us by a country mile. Mourinho and Conte are largely star managers is because they managed clubs shit deep in transfer funds or top players already littered through the team. Those clubs targeted the players the managers needed, not substituted them with cheaper options or kids. Give Conte a sub standard team not littered with worldies that he needs to coach up to another level, and he is fucked.
We were on top of the footballing tree under Poch, he wanted transfers, he pleaded with Levy for more QUALITY players, not the likes of N'Koudoo etc. Levy wet himself at the thought of the financial implications for enic of doing that. He took the cowards way out. Much cheaper to appease the fanbase with a top manager than pay to build a top team. At that point we knew what Levy and enic were all about, using THFC as a vehicle for lining their own pockets. Parasites conning us. I can't believe there are still a few fans out there that think they are doing a good job in all honesty.

next manager will tell us a lot about the state of the club.

Poch: gone for the safe comfort blanket option.

Tuchel/Enrique: gone AGAIN for the big name that doesn’t fit. Worst option.

Gallardo/Kompany/Carrick: trying the wild card approach which has the biggest potential up side but also big downsize if it doesn’t work.
 
Initially I wanted Tuchel and I didnt want Poch to return BUT day by day I'm leaning towards Poch returning.
I'm excited at what he could do with attacking full backs like Porro, Udogie and Spence. I'm intrigued at him potentially being able to unlock the unplayable Bissouma we saw at Brighton and the imposing Richarlison we saw at Everton.

I like Thomas Frank as well.
Agree with most except thomas frank. Dont want us to play like norway.
 
Whoever it is, I want them to keep our squad super athletic and able to run the full 90 mins. No bottom of the table fitness stats that we saw under Mourinho and Nuno’s reigns.

Given that a large part of me doesn't feel it will make a lot of difference, I like the safe comfort blanket option I have to say.

As I get older the world seems to be an increasing incomprehensible and horrible place, Spurs are just another symptom of that.

A comfort blanket sounds nice.

Oh, something else...

It's LUIS Enrique
 
Pochettino will end in tears

Any manager will end in tears eventually. How short term is Danny thinking??

I think poch is like a nice looking plaster with dinosaurs on that you give to little kids. Along with a little lolly. Levy is the doctor who knows this trick.

We need major surgery. But that takes time.

Poch gets a feel good factor straightaway. He’s out of work so cheap to get on a contract.
Fans already singing his name on the way out… seems like a done deal on all sides.
