Messi to Barca has 0% of happening, they are having trouble resigning Pedri let alone signing Messi back.

Nagglesman would genuinely be the first time I was 100% excited for a manager. Poch was amazing and great at Saints but was a bit like getting De Zerbi at the time, could he step up?
Jose’s and Conte’s football is boring but on the flip side you have the maybe promise of trophies (not with us it appears)
This would be the first time we got a manager who is elite but plays stylish football, tactically flexible and works at developing players. So top draw but also fits our clear and obvious limitations.
Saying all this he will probably now fail if he comes but on paper this is would be the best manager pick the club has ever made.
Pochettino in theory is now quite similar but it’s the whole going back to your ex situation. I would take either TBH.

I think we're already a ways into the rebuild. We have a number of young, promising talented players in place already. So if we do get Nagelsmann, he has a core of these players to work around.
The main concern is what most here have been banging on about for ages, CB's, a goalkeeper and a creative midfielder. That would give us a strong starting 11 with fairly decent backup. We do have a lot that need moving on though, which is a bit of a millstone at the moment, but one step at a time.
To be honest I haven’t watch Bayern much recently when I watched his Leipzig team they switch all manner of styles from 352 to 433 to 4231. It was very flexible game to game. The same basic pressing though was evident throughout. We will need our young players and probably buy some more young players.
Nagelsmann plays a 3-4-3 but an extremely attacking one... even had Sane and Coman as WBs at times for Munich.
Getting ahead of myself, but he'd prioritise Porro and Udogie far above defensive options such as Emerson and Sessegnon.

Seems like he will be our next target for sure. He seems like a guys who is better with developing players rather than managing star players.....
Probably a good manager to rebuild with.
Will he fuck off that Danish dosser? I assume he doesn’t like CM’ers that boot the ball back to their keeper as they can’t turn on the ball?
Every time you disgrace yourself and your dynasty by slagging off our players, I hope they get to spend their career at spurs pissing you off.
Be quiet.
The Twitter thread contains some good information on why he will fail at Spurs, covering the key aspects. Worth a read
If he does, he will see off our next manager within 18 months. Useless cunt
Just talks ?
He’s already put himself in the friend zone….
I’m on the same level of excitement as a couple of summers back when we were reportedly close to get Erik ten Hag. And that says a lot, considering I lost interest because of how dogshit this season’s been.
Mate, it's barely been a week and Conte hasn't even been sacked yet, ffs! You have no fucking clue what is going on behind the scenes. If the board had fired Conte on Saturday and appointed Luis Enrique on Sunday, the ENICout brigade would be melting now that Nagelsmann is available and would be bashing "L & L" for pulling the trigger too fast.Bayern sacked a head-coach (who's just gotten them to the CL quartes by beating PSG) and hired a new one in 1day without any hesitation and no outsiders (not even the head coach himself) knew about it before the decision was announced.... while the whole footballing world knows that L & L had no intention of renewing Cont's contract and now want to sack him and yet it's dragging on and on. Last time L & L were dragging on they got Nuno
And because once (ONCE!) it took us forever to appoint a manager and we ended up with Nuno, it is now the norm??
Tough crowd.
I’m really unsure about how good a fit Nagelsmann is. These JDP like systems take good recruitment, a lot of time on the training ground, and a club with a vision of building a team to play in that way. You don’t bring in Nagelsmann to “improve” Eric Dier or “get the best” out of Hojbjerg. He would need to be in complete sync with the club and would require 100% backing should difficult decisions arise. I just can’t see Levy backing a manager like that, we historically assemble a team that a manager is expected to get the best of, not assemble a team for a specific style of play.
