yeah we have the footballers to play his system
xavi hojberg
iniesta skipp
Yes and no .
Yes if you believe he has been , is , and remains an impediment to the clubs on field fortunes.
No , if you think he has , is and will continue to be an asset to the clubs on field fortunes , in which case you are just happy with things and focus less on the why .
Yes, even if you think he is doing well and are French
Absolutely no point in going with Enrique unless the club plans on going all in on his style and vision. Continuing with the Paratici style scattergun transfers and players like Dier and Hojbjerg while trying to play his football would just be a massive waste of everyone’s time. Again.
I wasn’t sure about Agne, but after your point about dropping players, that is exactly what we need! We need someone to install discipline and graft, along with fearless football. As is often the case, this comes from youth being integrated as they have nothing to loose and a fearless energy. Another two year stop-gap with Rodger’s says they are looking to sell, a long term rebuild says they are serious about competingCeltic fan in peace.
Apologies, I couldn't help myself. Also I have alot of Spurs fan friends from London, so whilst not "worried" about your beautiful club taking our wonderful manager, I thought it apt to weigh in with a perspective.
Ange is NOT for you.
He knows it. We know it.
I'm pretty sure you guys know it.
And yes, Im fully expecting all the "wee club / backwater" pish that usually drips out of EPL fans, but I'd like to think Spurs fans are different, and if not, at least aware of their current circumstances.
Ange is not for you for the primary reason of TIME.
He won't get any.
Ange Postecoglous style of football, whilst not an anomaly to the EPL, is extremely specific. Currently, you do not have the players to perform for him. Including , but not limited to, your FB positions, wingers, and centre Mids. Ironically, your CB positions wouldn't bother him. (Thanks for CCV btw, literally the best CB we've had since VVD, and that's not an exaggeration, he's an absolute wall.).
If I may also say, your players don't have the requisite attitude to play for him.
He's a hard ass. Nothing less than 100% sees a player dropped and there's NEVER a complaint from Celtic players. They know the demands They know his mantra. They know his resolve. He demands absolute obedience to his "philosophy" and any notion of disharmony to his footballing ideals is usually met with the subs bench.
Forgive me for saying, but the current players at Tottenham don't exactly exude obedience, or indeed acquiescence to leadership.
Frankly speaking, Ange Postecoglou would need 8 months and a budget of at least 100m.
He's worked absolute wonders with us with a budget of under 40 in two windows. But that's because he knows the market he's shopping in.
With Spurs, you'd need at least DOUBLE that in ONE window, to at least give the Spurs fans some faith. Some proof of his ideas and to see the fruits of his labours.
The EPL is ruthless.
Now, on to the unfortunate truth.
At this moment in time, another Celtic manager is absolutely PERFECT for you.
Yep. Dickhead Rodgers.
And yes, he's a MASSIVE dickhead.
But what he also is, is one of the finest man managers in European football. He can take a squad on its knees and have it playing a great brand of football that blows oppositions away. He gives belief and purpose to players.
What he can't do is sign a fucking player to save his life.
He comes with baggage.
An entourage of halfwits who don't have a FUCKING CLUE what a player looks like.
I'm sure I don't need to go into specifics, as history reads itself quite well.
EVERY team he's managed have a two year "glory" period.
Then.. it's all downhill. He signs shite, keeps playing the shite, and then ends up defending or attacking same shite.
Make no mistake, he CANNOT be allowed to sign players.
A DoF who has the balls to tell him to stfu is essential.
It's literally why he jumped ship from us. The club let him sign nearly 15m worth of pish (real money in our "backwater") and decided to sign players that scouts recommended instead.
He's on record complaining about it.",I don't need anymore wingers" etc etc.
But, I digress.
Ange is not for you.
Rodgers is, but for two seasons MAX.
Then find a manager with an actual fucking plan to bring your club to where it should be.
A European FORCE.
Ta ta and goodbye.
Good luck to yas. Always had a wee soft spot.
Now fuck away off away from Big Ange
Maybe the rabbit out the hat will be a Lady?
That would be a pretty impressive publicity stunt and a clever detractor at the same time?
Hmmm'
I haven't seen
Mrs Perryman
post too much the last few days. Deep in negotiations?Unfortunately
CarrieFi
is not under consideration, because she is expected to demand
The Absolute GOAT
as her assistant, and that will piss off half the supporter base.Yes there is.....2%
Rodgers in the background is a sure fire way to make us relieved at any old appointment, keep that rumour circling and it’s a free pass
Celtic fan in peace.

We are going to take Ange off you, and there’s nothing you, Celtic or Ange can DO about it.
You will thank us too.
Yes but you are not measuring apples with apples.
Poch and Rodgers have managed a similar amount of overall games and at similar clubs.
I think Rodgers win ratio with Leicester compares very favourably against Poch's record at Southampton.
These two clubs are very similar.
Rodgers has actually won a trophy in England too.
I would prefer Nagelsmann but Rodgers would probably not be as bad as some people think.
A better option than Potter or Enrique in my opinion.
I'm increasingly thinking we'll see the DFO hired first and then the coach. I can't fault the logic of doing it in that order. The summer transfer window opens (I think) in mid-June. So, I'm guessing a DFO within two week and then a manager hire in a month. I have no clue who the new coach will be. Every time speculation builds up around a particular name it fades just as fast. Now that Slot is off the board, it seems to open the way for Spurs to return to Nagelsmann once a new DFO is on board, with Potter or Enrique as a fall back. Still think Amorim is in the running because Spurs always seem to have ties through agents to Portugal. And he might actually be the best choice left on the board.

Unfortunately
I don’t need the stress
I'm beginning to think Levy fancies having a go at being manager himself

Nice try Brendan.
I'd take Alan Pardew if it meant we replaced those you listed there.
With our current squad, let's just go full clown show and bring in a manager who plays the 4-4-2. Probably the best formation given the current players.
Forget new progressive attacking football. Let's go backwards.
We're Spurs. We don't follow trends
From 01/01/2019 to 9th November 2019, Poch took 38 points from 90 (30 games) for a PPG of 1.26
Rodgers 28 games this season yielded 25 points from 28 games for 0.9 ppg.
Over a 38 game season that is 48 points for Spurs and 34 for Leicester.
Poch did that with a team that finished comfortably in 4th, got to a Champions league final and gave him £130m to spend on TND, GLC and Sessegnon.
Yet you'd all have Poch back in a heartbeat, but seemingly rather cut your nads off before accepting Rodgers.
We *probably won't get him.
We *probably won't get some one worse.
*But Levy could just as easily do either.
Didn't want poch back either.
Jose had an incredible career but was also a busted flush by the time he came to us.
Rodgers had a great career but his peak is behind him.
Absolutely agree with the last thing you wrote.
