What is the point in sacking ange at this stage?
Yer man from Bournemouth is not leaving them for us. Why would he.
It took silva two seasons to sort Fulham out.
No manger is getting backed by financially by levy so why would they come. Wolves are second bottom and have a 50 million pound striker .
We need new owners not a new manager.
Also fuck Carragher and Neville and all them wanker pundits. I would rather watch angeball with all its failures than a world where them pricks are right!!!
 
I just woke up, nasty dream, we lose to Forest, Ange gets fired, Southgate is named manager, this board has melt down.

Southgate goes on to win the league cup and the Europa.
 
Spurs need a manager like Dyche who will make us a fortress at the back. People need to think critically. Just because he is defensive at Everton doesn't necessarily mean he would be the same for Spurs. IT’S EVERTON. They can only win points playing defensively and being set up well. They have an attacking crisis that isnt his fault because Everton is a gash club. He’s tasked with keeping them up with no funding and thats what he does.. theres parallels to that at Spurs. We want CL football with no funding. It is what it is. However our basic squad is still levels above Evertons.

Given that Dyche can thrive under these rigid conditions with players he is given irrespective of his own philosophy shows how underrated he is tactically. Again, think critically. Would Pep thrive at Everton? Id argue the case that its far harder to set up a team defensively with limited funds than it is to play attacking football with the worlds best players. Hence why I think Ange would probably do well at Man City. Weve had these huge name managers that unless they have everything 100% in their favour they collapse and cant even do basic managerial stuff. Dogmatic tactics that get us spanked every week. Shoehorning players that dont fit their “systems”

History is repeating itself ie Juande Ramos when Spurs were floating around looking for an identity during the mid 2000s. Then Harry Redknapp came in. A guy most people scoffed at and would scoff at today. He got us back to basics. Set us up well. Brought in a fatherly feeling and was a stand out voice for Tottenham Hotspur. He brought life back into the club and made us feel confident and gave us character. A no nonsense approach. Poch added to that.

And I think Dyche would bring the same. A no nonsense approach. Back to basics. A strong set up. A long term approach. He’s not a flittering manager that jumps from club to club spending millions.

He’s managed to keep Everton up despite the points deduction. He’s managed to keep them up despite Everton having an £80million positive net spend under him.

Heres a damning stat. Since the start of November, Everton have only conceded 5 goals. In contrast, Ange has conceded 24 goals.
 
He wouldn't.

The bloke had an incredibly successful reign as England Manager. There's a fucking National Theatre play about him that sells out wherever and whenever its on.

There isn't a bigger name available in world football and he's absolutely who Levy will turn too after a failed project. The only question is will he come?

That’s what I’ve been saying. And after we’ve spent a couple of years building a squad which is the complete antithesis of Southgateball, I can see Levy doing it. Just because it is completely the wrong and most unsuited move.

There must be plenty of other managers than sit in the middle of the spectrum of boring us to death or playing unsustainable brain dead football. Any club with a modicum of nous could pick one. It turns out paratici wasn’t too bad at finding them with hindsight apart from Gattuso. I’d turn to him again and see what happens.

Nah, Alan Pardew is better, at least he can dance.

Honestly, Sean fucking Dyche...?
Idiot Facepalm GIF
 
It's like everyone just suddenly forgets how they booed Nuno out of the club because he subbed Lucas fucking Moura off - and now the same guy has Nottingham Forest - the pedigree of Brian Clough - absolutely flying.

But we didn’t give him his full coaching staff, we employed him with one hand tied behind him back. We wouldn’t let him bring his usual assistant with him ffs, that’s us under levy!

Everywhere else he has done fine yet with us he’s awful.

He was never the right pick but we didn’t exactly help him out.
 
Most clean sheets in the league. Imagine if they had some attackers
Dyche mate, please tell me you are joking. I get what you’re saying about defensive stability, but Sean scotch egg head Dyche can fuck right off.

They are very good defensively because they don’t do anything else. They play for a 1-0 win and if they can get that he honestly seems just as ecstatic with a 0-0 and reasonably happy with a 1-0 loss if it’s against the right sort of side.

We went too far the other way with Ange - going to Dyche would give us whiplash
 
Mason 3.0

Followed by someone like Palladino from Fiorentina... his principles are simple, focussing on basics and building from the back. He's doing pretty well with Fiorentina so assuming they keep it going he could be worth a gamble.
 
I don't know if Iraola is "impossible" - I just think it would be very hard and very expensive to pry him out of Bournemouth right now and doubt he'd even want to come given the list of sacked managers before him? Iraola will have his pick of top clubs next year if Bournemouth continue on their trajectory. Why on earth would he choose the poisoned chalice?
Every club sacks managers. Any top job he would be looking into there's an extensive list of managers coming and going all the time.
It's not like he is on a lifetime contract in Bournemouth either. One shit season for whatever reasons and he could get a sack there too and not easily get a chance to manage in club the size of Tottenham
