Not a bad shout, but Hoddle won't take it with his health problems.I completely agree.
If Levy wants to attain (temporary) Zen status, he now needs to appoint Hoddle as Caretaker manager for the remainder of the season.
Fuck off lolNuno Espirito Santo continues to be linked with us. Oh shit...
Apart from Woolwich.I feel compelled to warn supporters of other clubs to never appoint this man.
As usual, Levy plays chess while everyone else plays checkers. What better way to soothe a roiling fanbase in the wake of the ESL announcement than sacking the bastard we've been begging to be sacked since Feb.2 months too late
I think it's at the point now where no club with sense should be hiring him. It was already a foolish decision by Levy 17 months ago, but there was at least some question marks over whether he was let down by United. Now it's beyond a doubt that he's a busted flush.I feel compelled to warn supporters of other clubs to never appoint this man.
Don't get your hopes up, thats Levy for "when we've found a replacement".
The Club can today announce that Jose Mourinho and his coaching staff Joao Sacramento, Nuno Santos, Carlos Lalin and Giovanni Cerra have been relieved of their duties.
Chairman, Daniel Levy, said: "Jose and his coaching staff have been with us through some of our most challenging times as a Club. Jose is a true professional who showed enormous resilience during the pandemic. On a personal level I have enjoyed working with him and regret that things have not worked out as we both had envisaged. He will always be welcome here and we should like to thank him and his coaching staff for their contribution."
Ryan Mason will take First Team training today and a further update will follow in due course.
...
Hmm, anyone want to place a bet on whether a new manager (even if for next season) gets announced today?
Probably correct. But the man does believe To Dare Is To Do.Not a bad shout, but Hoddle won't take it with his health problems.
Why, they probably won't listen, just like some of us. Sure he will use his charm to get something else, but think he's done in the PL. Portugal job maybe?I feel compelled to warn supporters of other clubs to never appoint this man.
Pointless to carry on when you've lost the dressing room though mate. He threw some of them under the bus, they weren't interested in playing for him anymore.Well some disloyal entitled so-called fans have got their way with the most untimely sacking of a top manager. Only Daniel Levy can explain why he did not give Mourinho even ONE season to prove himself while under constant attack from the anti-Tottenham press.
The entitled brigade on this forum can now look forward to mediocrity under Nuno Espirito Santo, the media have already picked for you, or even worse someone who has not managed for decades like Hoddle who talks nonsense in his tactical analysis on BT in games.
Levy is the new sack-race king outdoing the Russian in his lack of patience and foolish interference. He was the idiot behind allowing Jan Vertongen to leave Spurs for NOTHING rather than give him a 2 year contract. Vertongen is still first choice in Belgium's defence (with Alderweireld a great partnership lost for Spurs), the top international team in the world.
Tottenham will never achieve anything while Levy runs the club like this.
Don't hold your breath, we'll probably end up in a cunt-off over the colour of Mason's tie on Sunday.I'm also happy for those fans that despised him that they have got their wish and hopefully we can have a more united fanbase now.
What is he's not wearing one?Don't hold your breath, we'll probably end up in a cunt-off over the colour of Mason's tie on Sunday.
