Hope not with Dier

If we get rid of Lloris, Dier, Tanganga, Sanchez, Rodon, Reguilon, Winks, Celso, Ndombele with Lucas, Lenglet & Danjuma loans over we should have a decent bit

Maybe Ange will buy from the Asian market

How much do you expect to get from that? We've been trying to sell GLC and Ndombele for a few years nobody has money for them. We will just end up loaning everyone out again.
 
I am so excited.

I am beside myself with excitement.

What a time to support Spurs.

I know it's a Sunday but fuck it! I think I'm going to celebrate with a nice tall glass of bleach.

This'll probably raise a few eyebrows but I think Kane leaving this summer is the best option for everyone.

I know Alasdair Gold has waxed lyrical about how keeping Kane for another season is worth whatever fee we'd get, but I disagree - especially if we blocked a move and made him demotivated. Turning down £100m from Real Madrid (if true) would be madness.

Kane owes us nothing and frankly I'd see him going abroad for a big chunk of change as somewhat of a parting gift (he could easily run down that contract if he wanted). Meanwhile, we could reinvest that cash into some young, hungry players. I don't believe Kane would even suit the pressing style that Big Ange will have us playing.

Painful rebuild is an oft-used phrase and that's exactly what needs to happen. No European football so a squad purge is in order, and if/when Kane goes it will represent a symbolic reset for the club.

Totally agree. It loses its power if you keep ranting constantly. Ange certainly is not that guy. He’s very measured in his team talks and every player knows what’s required individually and collectively. If players drop their standards he’s on them and they don’t play. We need this type of management. Not keep playing players who are continually shit week week out but still start the following week. There’s a few players in the Tottenham dressing room don’t realise what’s coming.

Admittedly I've only done a bit of youtubing to see how he sounds in a few interviews, but all I can say is he can certainly talk the talk, I REALLY like the way he comes across. I've got a very good feeling about him, for some reason imagining him signing for our club makes me feel much less bitter about the appointment of Poch at Chelski.
Lets give the fucker a chance and sign him up I say! :tobyarm:

From time to time, yes, but once you've shouted and screamed that's it. There's nowhere else to go. So it has to be used very precisely. That's why I said that I hoped it wasn't the norm. If it's the norm, you've lost the battle.

It's not the norm, you heard players actually saying that he rarely loses his temper, but when he does it puts the fear of God in them.

Excellent man management is knowing how to build them up, but also when to give them a dressing down. Done right, the players will beat themselves up far more than he would.

Every team he's managed has had players that would run through walls for him. They all want his approval.
 
Clearly this is a massive risk. He seems to have performed really well at every level he's been at. Fans of every team he's managed love him. But this is the top level.

How much of his Celtic success is just down to him have a good knowledge of Japanese players. He's not gonna be able to sign a few jocks to carry us to the title. It will be interesting to see.

He seems like a great bloke listening to quotes and interviews. Nagelsmann was my first choice but I'm actually more behind this than Slot
