No one has been shorter than Mason so far...including Poch.

I don't think that's true - Poch was evens a few days ago, and Mason has been odds on more recently than that. The managers markets are often like this - as soon as a name is mentioned by the media, odds for that person plummet, only for him to drift out over the next few days as it becomes apparent that it was just a rumour / idea / possibility amongst many others. It's probably my favourite market for laying favourites tbh.

EDIT: If I recall correctly, Mason was as crazily low as 1/5 at one point a few days ago (!)
 
AVB was boring as hell but results-wise we've done way worse. Although he had a prime Bale to bail him out.

Nagelsmann's football is incomparably more entertaining than AVB's football.

It’s nothing to do with their styles. I watch Bayern nearly every weekend and when plan A doesn’t work he hasn’t a clue what to do. I could go and find the post from ealier this season when they were struggling I called he would be sacked. He only knows one way of playing and that’s not enough. It’s the same situation with conte. No plan b.

I have to admit I don't watch Bayern nearly as much as you might (I find the BuLi extremely boring compared to Serie A or Ligue 1) but reading the fans comments online and hearing from my old man, who's a Bayern fan, they all seem to think that the sacking was extremely harsh and undeserved. Also, I've not seen one person complain that the football was boring under JN, which is my main concern for the next manager. We're Spurs, so as long as Levy is here, I've given up on the hope of winning anything, Conte proved that.

I have said that he might've gotten sacked in the summer, but nobody expected him to be sacked now.
 
Nagelsmann should get the same criticism Poch received for struggling with PSG. Bayern constantly win the PL and for them to struggle like this is a big mark against him.

Tuchel is a better coach than Nagelsmann, especially for a club like Bayern Munchen.
they took the opportunity

Nagelsamann is more suited in clubs where the important thing is the philosophy, the beauty of football, the storytelling

Now would be a good time to put money on Mase. Even if we get JN, it's not going to be so quick. I can't think of a manager that took the reins of a new team within literally days or a few weeks of being fired. And it's not like we're his dream job that he would jump right into it. Summer at best.

I'm pretty sure we are only a few weeks away from renewals though, Levy can't be seen to sack two elite managers and let Mason see out the season two years in a row and expect a high renewal rate.
 
Everyone has been impressed by what Kompany has done at Burnley in such a short time, how their football is so different from that under Dyche, but the key is that he has brought in a load of players to suit his philosophy.


"The Clarets have been busy in the market since Vincent Kompany took charge, signing 20 players since he arrived with 18 more departing. It's been a complete overhaul of the squad and means much of the side is unrecognisable from the Sean Dyche era."

Nagelsmann would need a similar overhaul here. At least 7 or 8 out and 9 in, more youth, more power, more technical skill and intelligence.
 
They aren’t good enough

Aren't good enough for what? We aren't expected to win the EPL or Champs League.

For top 4 and a half decent run to knockout stages of champs league - they are.

Romero, Son, Kane are top tier players who would be in starting 11 of any team.

Holjberg, Emerson, Bentencaur, Richy would walk into most squads.

Porro, Skipp, Wanyama, Kulu should develop into top players.

Udogie, Sarr also show promise.


It is a decent squad.

It's not city. Its not Chelsea. Its not United. But decent.

He has a plan B for in-game changes, but it's so fucking complicated that it takes the players several minutes to grasp what he wants. We need someone who is going to keep it simple, like Zidane and Ancelotti do.

We already have a lot of players 27 or below in need of development.

Sarr, Skipp, Bentancur, Bissouma, Udogie, Porro, Royal, Spence, Bryan Gil, Richarlison, Kulusevski, Romero, Sessengnon, Devine, Danjuma.

He is far closer to Poch in his ways than Conte or Jose. We need more obviously but there will be a core next season of younger players which is what Naglesmann has a reputation of working with.

Would they? Not top 4 squads. Our centre mid is appalling, should be nowhere near the top 4
