I was, and it sounds like that's the market we'll be fishing in. Home grown disgruntled relegation fodder is Levy's dream signing.
Morecambe and Carlisle United both look set to go down from Division 2

Yahia Fofana being linked to Spurs....


In an ideal world we could do with a first choice keeper who’s not hopeless with the ball at his feet, a rabbit in headlight when trying to deal with crosses and a bit crazy. It’s not however a priority given we’ve issues at CB, LB, CM, creativity and STKR.

Even with a new coach and no suicidal tactics/playing to our strengths and the expected departures we’re still going to need:

CB - Romero and Davies replacement
LB - competition for Udogie
DM - someone who can tackle
S - Richarlison replacement/Solanke competition

It will interesting to see if the new coach views any of the kids as ready to be incorporated into the first team squad - those being Phillips, Vuskovic, Devine and Donley.
 
Sure, but the last few managerial appointments have all looked increasingly tenuous and desperate.

Absolutely nobody is itching to be manager of Tottenham anymore. We've gone from a solid side that was just missing one final puzzle piece to threaten for silverware in the richest league in the world, to a bloated, shambling corpse teetering above the drop zone, and where good footballing reputations go to die.

I'm convinced we're still saddled with Ange because most managers simply won't return Levy's calls.
Nagelsmann told Levy to jog on. Slot laughed at his face. Enrique didn't even take his call.

When we appointed Nuno he was what...No 6 on the list of targets? The Blob from down under wasn't even in the top 10...or maybe he was one of the leading candidates cause Levy & his cronies know dick about football.

Managers talk to each other. Imagine what Mourinho or Conte would tell Zidane, Xabi Alonso, De Zerbi etc.

If we sack Ange in the summer...and I so wouldn't be surprised if he was kept on even if we don't win the EL...then I reckon we'll go after Farioli (Ajax), Haise (Nice), Knutsen (Bodo), Henriksen (Mainz). Or someone a bit sexier like Sergio Conceicao...who is failing at AC Milan and was set to return to Nantes before his agent worked his magic.

Several clubs were said to pass on Nagelsmann due to certain demands and in the end he got the job he most wanted anyway: Deutsche mannschaft.
Levy & Lewis were not willing to pay the £10m release clause for Slot. He was in fact willing to join Spurs.
Luis Enrique was offered the PSG job

Remember lots of Spurs fans not wanting Enrique..

Can't remember what I was thinking at the time but his Spain team were dull as dishwater. Just goes to show how much training time and chemistry it takes to build his system.
