If Iraola cannot be gotten I'd be very happy with Alguacil. He's currently the head coach at Real Sociedad but his contract runs out in the summer. He ticks a lot of the boxes for what we want.
He plays attacking football, is good at developing youngsters (a must at Basque clubs who pride themselves on their academies), and has experience from La Liga and European football. Alguacil was also head coach of Sociedad's reserve and u23 teams before he got promoted originally as well.
If they started doing a poor job, how would we know?
Yup, a graveyard for managers!
And if we are serious for a second. I wonder if the club has dug itself a hole so deep, we can't get out of it?
What great manager would want to come here now? Same with players.
I'm not feeling positive at all about the club going forward. The only thing we have left to attract managers/players with, are living in London, and money. And we all know our owner doesn't like to spray money around.
But that's the only route we have left it seems.
The only scenario i can see, is back to the 90's and midtable obscurity, unless we start spending big on wages.
Not really the club has run out of road. There is no Conte to come along, it would be Ryan Mason till end of season.
For once i'd be ok with that. It literally cannot be any worse. Just telling our full backs to play as full backs and get 2 midfielders to sit in midfield will improve results. Just simple back to basics. But they wont go back to Mason, too embarrasing for them which is why we're lumbered with the charlatan.
Tottenham: Is Ange Postecoglou right to highlight injuries as reason for team's problems this season?
Tottenham are out of both domestic cup competitions and languishing in 14th in the Premier League, but head coach Ange Postecoglou has launched a defence of his players and pointed to injuries being the issue; but is there more to Spurs problems than that?
I agree - Poch is like Obi Wan, became more powerful when he was struck down. If he was given a second go he would be in a very strong position to put pressure on for transfers etc and Levy wouldn't want that.
4-4-2 under Steve Bruce would be better until the end of the season.
That is how shambolically bad we are.
The point Meia Amador makes on X is so ficking obvious it's shocking how hard it was for people on THIS forum to accept. I argued till blue, it was conditioning, it was work load, it was HOW we pressed, all of which were on Ange. All you got was some utter shit for brains posting an info graphic at you pointing out Liverpool did this or saying in a voice I hear like cletus in the Simpson's ' Are footballers nat supposed ta run now' I despise these people.
Money related I think, maybe contract specific.
“These aren’t the midfielders you’re looking for”
If we were in actual danger of relegation we absolutely should do this and become hard to beat/grind out draws.
As it stands we seem to be stuck with Ange until summer. If he hasn’t been sacked now he must be immune until we’re out of Europa and by then it’s so close to summer that it doesn’t matter.
Hard to see the point of our league schedule the rest of the way in.
Poch from nowhere to 7-1 now.
Keep singing his name.

i actually think we were on a decent path and were enacting a plan. of course it was an underwhelming and unambitious plan for a club of our size but we signed some decent young players and a handful of older established players that could play the kind of football we say we want to play. then we screwed the pooch taking a punt on a backwoods manager rather than someone with some pedigree.Yup, a graveyard for managers!

Well you could be a fan of Erik Hamrén
I'd promote the U23 coach on a interim basis just to get it done with.
Wayne seems to have the kids far better drilled either way. And it's not like U23 coaches stepping up is completely unheard of.
Well I was right about one thing..I woke up this morning and he is still here...I've lost all hope...I don't understand why baldy, preeminent trigger puller, has done nothing about the guy who is wrecking our club...I'm giving up for the moment...can't take it anymore. People say it's the hope that kills you...
