Management Johan Lange - Technical Director

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Lange saw Kinsky play 12 times in person, brings him in and calls him the future. Now after 12 months and very few games he’s getting a much needed loan, but with an option to buy! If he does well and actually looks like a good keeper we are going to lose him. If he does poorly he will be returning. Either option is classic Spurs.
 
This window is the tipping point.

He is a bigger liability to this club than any other employee, even Thomas Frank. Remember, he pushed for Frank heavily.

He must go the exact same day Frank does.
 
Failed coach and a failed manager who lucked out by signing a a couple of players who ended up selling for profit so he was appointed Sporting Director of one of the richest clubs in world football.

A little bit like going to a McDonalds, having a pretty nice burger then employing the cook to be the head chef at your Michelin restaurant.

Fucking morons at this club.
 
Lange as a youth scout or as one of the recruitment team is probably ok.

Lange with responsibility for building a senior squad with a pathway for that youth and involvement in finding the right coach?

He’s a proven disaster now. We need to find someone like Campos or Paul Mitchell, Christoph Freund maybe.

The only hope for this indecision for sacking Frank is they are also looking at the right DOF first.

Lange should just sit behind the computer churning out the data. He is more charismatic clicking through them.
 
Saw someone say when that Stavely woman was looking to take over she was apparently going to bring Dougie Freedman with her

He did an excellent job at Palace, might be a bit left field but he could be an interesting candidate for us as well

All about if he can work at a higher level (I realise the shit we are in right now, but you know what I mean)

I stopped following this guy because its all horseshit, but it came up on my timeline being reposted

I dont actually know what this is supposed to mean 😄

Almost sounds like he's saying Lange is on the take, but I suspect its more about how badly he has used funds

Either way, I think the idea the club have an external audit company going through everything to see how we are being run is interesting, not sure Ive seen that one before....



Either way, after the way this seasons gone - I do expect Lange to be under the spotlight soon

The ousting of Levy clearly wasnt planned, I suspect theyre spending this season trying to restructure the club.

End of season I am wondering if he makes way in the summer along with Frank
 
Blokes a complete fraud. Data wizard my arse. Maybe we can put to bed this weird American illusion that what works in the worlds most static sport baseball works in elite Europe football.
This is true today. I’m not sure that it’s going to be the case five or ten years from now.
I’m not a data scientist and I am a bit of a baseball rotisserie hobbyist when iI can find time. Statistics are always getting refined.
We’re probably at the infancy of football’s data collection and analysis. Scientists are going to continue to refine football statistics, coming up with new, far more useful categorizations that give a far better indication of potential ability.
