Manager Igor Tudor

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Don't blame Tudor at all. These players haven't been having from day 1 so what chance has he got. The only upside of relegation is we get some of the rats of this sinking ship, as long as Gray, Tel and Bergvall stay i couldn't give a toss about the rest

Except in Pochettino’s case it’s hardly “don’t fancy it now” and more “World Cup in the summer”. It’s totally unrealistic to expect him to throw away all his work there and be extremely bad faith by walking away from the job before the tournament.

Pochettino probably wants the job a lot, but isn’t willing to throw away his professional reputation and fuck over the team he’s been coaching just to take it now. Which is fair enough..

Does he want the job enough to still come if we're relegated?

I'll be happy to wait for him if he does. Would soften the relegation blow a lot as I think he'd get buy-in from some talented youngsters.
 
Hearing we are mutually parting ways, probably for the best, also feel with a bit more luck he would have kept us up but when nothing is going your way you have to twist!

I'd also keep Odobert, Davies. Maddison if he's willing to do a season in the Champo.

But a silver lining of relegation will be a massive purge of the bad attitudes.
 
Extremely unlucky in his tenure. Wish him all the best. Actually defended us in the media, which is more than what you can say for most managers that we've had. If we ever cross paths again, he'll be met with a round of applause.

Yes I actually don't dislike him as a manager, he stood up for us, and just like Conte he's experiencing bereavement while having to manage our basket case of a club. So he will get sympathy from us fans.

But his PL tactics and subs have been rough, and ultimately this is a serious crisis and we can't just cross our fingers that he'll fix things.

Totally agree. First manager from the first minute we’ve had that’s stuck up for us and not pandered to the press. He didn’t try to be their pal and couldn’t be fucked with that circus.
Feel bad for him for what he’s going through just now.
I liked him from day one. Good luck to him.

Tactics doesn’t matter with this group of players, they don’t listen anyway.

Remember this when spurs fans inevitably call for the sack of the next manager after the first 1-2 games.

This is also why the club needs a total reset, and a manager who they will respect and will weed out the wankers - like Pochettino. Took him 6 months but he got there. I remember being in New York on my honeymoon and persuaded the missus to let me go to the pub for 8am in the morning with the NY Spurs guys - lost 3-0 to Liverpool if I remember, but you could see Poch glowering on the sidelines making judgements. A few months later a load of them got binned. We need that, badly, and the club has to support that process. Or we're fucked.
 
Thanks for everything Tudor. You came in and gave 100%. You fought for this club and treated the fans with total respect.

Very disappointing and tragic ending, but for me you'll always have a cult hero vibe about you. I was always proud listening to you in your press conferances sticking up for out club.

Thanks for everyhting Igor!
 
If he is leaving then all the best to him wherever he ends up.

Found some of his team selections strange but of our three most recent managers he's the one I have the most time for. Think if he had more time and a window to get rid of some of the bad apples and replace them with other players he might have done an alright job.

Yeah i quite like him. You can tell he was a pro footballer at a good level and expects certain standards, unlike the last 2 who were basically a PE teacher and an after dinner speaker.
 
He got handed a shit sandwich with a side of tough fixtures, injuries, poor discipline, players with zero confidence and topped off with his dad passing away. I wish him all the best. At least he didn't allow the media to control the narrative when interviewed. Not sure he would have kept us up but honestly, I don't think anyone is right now.
