Big call now for Mr Levy. The likes of Vert, Lloris &Eriksen will be looking for a high profile manager to keep them at the club. If no Van Gaal then who fits the bill God only knows. Moyes doesn't fit the bill IMO. Dr Boer might be a risk being a young manager but reputation alone just might be a good hit, that's if he's interested.Would love to know what Levy's plan B is.
He just need to get it right in the summer. Even a good manager that keeps us in the picture and makes our team play nice football would bring some peace to our football club.
I have been backing Levy all along, but this is a huge call, and that's why I wrote the article.
It's up to Levy and company to get something right that they too often got wrong.

You may make them stay for a while due to their contract, but if you want them to believe in Spurs they need to get a high-class manager in...
It's a hard call and one I'm glad I don't have to make. De Boer would at least bring his Ajax-traditions with him. But can he handle the pressure at Spurs? It's really one of the toughest jobs in the business..
I think Jan should be on his way, I don't want him staying. I don't think Dawson is comparable to Friedel. Friedel should make way for a younger keeper, but I expect Daws to be an important part of our squad next season. He's still a first choice CB, only Kaboul I could say is better than him currently, and that's a very close call, that might easily change after the Stoke game 
As usual the main problem is that we don't have a billionaire benefactor like Chelsea and City do, and we're not as big as Pool, Woolwich or Utd.
So chances are again we'll finish 5th-7th whoever is the manager, as that is our 'natural place' in the current order of things.
The best thing Levy/ENIC could do is sell up to someone(s) who's gonna seriously bankroll the club and push the new stadium through.
Failing that, we have to hope the new stadium changes things for the better.

Dawson can only be first choice at the likes of newly promoted Leicester or BurnleyI think Jan should be on his way, I don't want him staying. I don't think Dawson is comparable to Friedel. Friedel should make way for a younger keeper, but I expect Daws to be an important part of our squad last season.

I would let the new man in charge judge the players' attitude and commitment to the club.
If we need an oilgarch to get us to the very top, I'd rather wait for the stadium and do it the right way thank you. I despise the Chavs, the PSGs and the Citys of this world...
Agree let the new man judge. AVB massively got it wrong about Daws and indeed Friedel v Lloris, let's hope the new manager has better judgement re these two players.
As for billionaire benefactors, each to their own, I would love us to have the success of Chelsea and City. Chances are it will be the new stadium that maybe, just maybe, gives us that chance.
