That's because you can make more than one selection, but the % is calculated based on total people that voted not on total selections.Erm dunno if it's just me, but the %s currently add up to 200%... :/

I don't understand why people are saying the Real job will be open this summer. Ancelotti has a contract until 2024. Is there any indication he will be let go by Real at the end of the season?
So did Martinez at Wigan.
Brentford's excellent football organization took them from the Champo to comfortable PL midtable. Frank was hired because he fit what Brentford was looking for. Take him out of Brentford and it's very iffy that he will be as successful.
He'd sort them in no time, but luckily it's just The Sun.
Those aren't the only THFC employees, you know. There's a ton of staff doing research.
That can’t be true. TFC’s super fans will tell you it’s just Levy with a copy of football manager and alta vista.
Maybe we should ask james corden to recommend who our next manager is. 
Brentford are very very well run. Use a lot of data and almost run a moneyball type system which allowed them to get to where they are at now. They have a great little scouting system.
I think they were always going to get to where they were due to how they did business. Frank has done a great job with them though, no disputing that.
It doesn't make him any more of an interesting appointment
Someone who has worked in bigger leagues would have one extra data point to gauge them. But there is much more than that. Style of play, adaptability, man management, player improvement, discipline are all ingredients that can be gauged separate of which league someone has managed in. The trick is to determine how well these will translate when they make they move to your team. But that's a risk with managers who have managed in bigger leagues too.
The bigger achievement was keeping them in the PL as long as he did. You can't fluke that, whereas you can fluke an FA Cup.
Now for the proper response...
For a start, buying potential & selling players before their peak- that's only a small part of them two clubs' philosophy and strategy, you know. But obviously it don't fit your narrative so...
And yeah, it doesn't prevent them from performing, both in their respective domestic league and in Europe. Yeah yeah yeah the PL is a different animal and it's all about money blah blah blah, so wouldn't work at Spurs. Well I disagree. First, we aren't a poor club, far from it (9th wealthiest club in the early, are we not?). Our chairman just doesn't spend, or to be more accurate, he doesn't know how to spend it wisely (the Ndombele syndrome). And money without sense, well...that's not a great recipe either, go ask Chelsea. Or closer to yours, PSG. Do City win cause they're friggin loaded? Yes but...also cause they have a proper plan, strategy, and the right people to implement it...from top to bottom.
And if you go back to my reply from the other day about Cup winners since the turn of the century, which I seem to recall you've ignored (how weird), you'll see that some teams with neither the cash nor know-how of the elite clubs have managed to win a fair few/make the final. Unless I forgot about Wigan being the Lancashire Barca.
But yeah, that's totally outlandish on my part to claim that Spurs, a financially super-wealthy club, would do much better and win trophies in England and even in Europe if only we had a proper vision and adopted best practices. What a fool I am.
You wanna know what really gets me with you? You always gotta be right, even when you're wrong...which,more often than not, you are. Desole, Monsieur. And you just refuse to concede that Levy & his cronies have made a zillion mistakes and that they're the no 1 reason we've won zilch in forever. When it's as obvious as the hole you got between your bumcheeks. You'll come out with your stats nobody's ever heard of and bend the reality so as to fit your narrative. At this point, you're as much part of the problem as Baldy & his gang are. And you don't want us true Spurs fans to give you shit about it, under the false pretense that you're just playing devil's advocate and trying to bring some balance into the debate? Give it a rest, lad
Living in dreamland if you think that strategy would work and guarantee us trophies, what you're proposing is for us to be a Brighton, or to maybe backup your point further a Leicester but you're looking at the odd cup run and even then you need pure luck to even win something, despite our pathetic records in the cups we are a club starved of trophies with a rich history - we should be aiming to improve on that not to give up on it.
As a top 6 club we just need to accept who we are, we are just simply not in a position to sell our best players because we will be more often than not strengthening our rivals - one of the key reasons as to why Ajax and Dortmund are able to run their business like that is that they sell abroad for the most part (I know Dortmund have sold to Bayern but they are happy to be their cucks) Now unless you're happy to be Chelsea's or City's cuck year in year out that's fine but that screams serious lack of ambition to me
Prem is just a different beast to any league, you can't rest because there's so much fucking competition unlike the others, our strategy at the moment is messed up but believe me what you're proposing isn't the way to go.
There's been a lot of talk out of Brasil, including from Brazilian players like Ederson, that Carlo is being courted heavily by the Brazilian FA to take over as their manager in the summer. And before the Copa el Classico that Real were okay with him leaving if he wished to.
It’s a fucking ridiculous comparison.
PSG’s commercial revenue is more than the other 19 Ligue 1 teams combined. They will always qualify for the UCL. The best players in France (and going to France) will always end up at PSG.
We are 200m behind the richest teams in our league.
Have no clue. Nothing to say a compromise agreement forbids this
It’s total BS. , Kompany still has 3-4 years on his contract and the Burnley board won’t let this happen unless Kompany forces them to.
