Not signing Fonseca now because of fan reaction would be much worst than just signing him. What the fuck are they thinking?

Don't be daft. We simply don't know what is going on with Fonseca.
You are basing it off a bunch of media outlets that about 1% more detail than a homeless person with no TV or Internet access.

They're parasites. They write whatever they want for clicks and when their predicted outcomes don't happen they either delete the stories or they claim it was one parties fault.

If appointed, things could go tits up very quickly. He doesn't know the players. They don't know him. He's not worked in England. Who will he bring with him? Will the club personnel warm to him? Will he have time to even get to know enough before the season kicks off? His first few games are going to be crucial. It's all on a very insecure knife-edge.

...that's if this rumour is true!

Getting used to the new club should be bread & butter by now for him, given the number of clubs he has moved to...Also, he seems to get them going sooner. He seems likeable & warm - so I dont see any issues.
With us being such a shit show last season, many in our squad haven't gone to Euros. So, of those who are not leaving, he should be able to work with that group sooner

As long as the deadwoods are sold and we get the priority players ,we should be fine. The onus here is on Paratici (& Levy ofcourse). Its for them to make it easy for Fonseca

Agreed.
The answer is having a clause that means he is cheap and easy to sack quickly for under performance.
If he's the chosen one then he needs to be hired, fan reaction before he's even started has to be ignored - unless we're talking Sol Campbell, Jason Cundy of course.
If he's a joke signing that would have the fans up in arms, he shouldn't be even on the list.

It just represents the total lack of vision and planning from the board and levy. They just go with the flow. One day it’s an attacking manager, the other is the best free manager on the market. It’s impossible to succeed in this way. There’s two ways of winning and be a big team: spend spend spend and spend. Chelsea and city.
And the other is to have a plan and execute it. Follow a philosophy and never leave that road. Like Liverpool. Have managers that play a certain way. Buy players that fit the profile of football.
We? Are a fucking shambles
 
Trix , you know the idiot "ITK" who first said it was Conte, then ten Haag, then .......

He hides behind a pseudonym but says this about Spurs MSM reporters:

"Nah, I honestly believe they are no better than Clubcall, remember those premium rate phone lines. Only difference is they post a few opinion piece articles that only seem to be "good" if they fit your own way of thinking"

The man's a prize cunt.
