Yes , that was the time to make a decision either way. I guess they thought a see how you go approach might work after the world cup but the performances against Brentford, Villa and Contes general demeanour and we should have pulled the plug then imo. I think Conte mentally checked out during that 6 weeks off. Maybe promises weren't kept, maybe the death of friends makes him want to be home. Who knows. But I think its too late to show committment now, the time has gone. The football and results are too dreadful to warrant a new deal.
Well we know Conte's vision is to have us competing as he's said it.
So what exactly is this fraud boards vision?
Coming soon to a twitter feed near you:
Tuchel is not exactly defensive. I think he’s a good tactician, but I am not sure someone like him would be a fit for the massive rebuild we must undertake, I mean he’d end up clashing with that bald cunt for sure and you’d have another Conte situation in 18 months.
Well, there was a reported meeting mid/late December which I'd have hoped was the final in a series rather than the start of that process.
Either way the guessing games are just tedious.
So it's thank you and fuck off?
I can't believe so many want him to remain in charge.
It's worse than Jose, AVB and George Graham in terms of being a tough watch.
Probably after he learned of our January budget.
Torn, as I do think he does over do the intensity in training, look at the injuries, wreaks of excessive load demands, as the game is soo intense here in the Prem. Poch was the same IMO.
Tuchel linked huh (of course).
Screams of another last dance. Based on his Chelsea stint he would not play the most illustrious of football.
BUT! Tuchel at the very least has it on his resume that he does know how to play attacking football. He's not meant to be a one trick pony like Jose or as it seems, Conte.
Tuchel's Dortmund team was very tactically flexible. Utilizing the gegenpress and positional play. And different formations depending on the opponent.
And his PSG side was also very tactically flexible and sound.
Maybe he's been too hardened by his PSG and Chelsea spells. And maybe I am just trying to see the positive in things. But maybe a Tuchel that has refound his love for football could go back to being a more attacking manager.
We know that he can coach attacking teams.

If we go that way, I wish we’d go Rangnick as DOF and Marco Rose as manager. But obviously won’t happen.There is another german...
What would be our Paulinho-kicking-Suarez-in-the-heart moment, and why will it be by Romero?
Reading that instead of the shit stirring aggregators and I think you may well be right. I know we aren’t in great form but we can still get fourth or higher And in two cup competitions.
Mokbel did break the story when Conte joined us so I’m wondering if the leak could cut ally have come from his side and he’s looking for a way out.
Romero breaks Haaland's nose.What would be our Paulinho-kicking-Suarez-in-the-heart moment, and why will it be by Romero?
Mourinho and Conte were both reactive appointments aimed at keeping our stars at Spurs. Kane above all.
He could have chosen managers adapted to the reality of what he was prepared to spend on players, but Kane wouldn't have hung around. Instead it's looking like it was all a big PR job. Fake ambition.
Hun, wake up, new Alasdair Gold video just dropped:
I'll be back in 75 mins(!) and let you know if he says anything interesting.

Pretty much. It's far easier to look ambitious by sticking a big name at the helm than it is to actually commit to a rebuild of the squad. The latter takes patience, good decisions and lots of resources. Levy has been squeezing the last drops out of Son & Kane out of desperation.
He can't handle the prospect of ripping up the squad. A lowly project manager won't fit the we're totally an elite club look at us look at the shiny stadium image. He just wants to appear as the chairman of an elite club without doing all the things the chairman of an elite club is expected to, i.e build trophy winning teams.
