I'm sure there are plenty of good options in Europe we could go for, but since you mentioned him, Glasner would be a decent shout.
Big club experience in the Bundesliga with Frankfurt. Incredible job in the Premier League with Palace.
And despite what you say, if any other BIG 6 club wanted him at this point in the season they'd damn well get him.
Ideally though, sell the fucking club and I'd be happy to write off the season and bring back Poch or Conte with some serious backing next summer

Who would you like?
After ange was sacked I wanted xavi.

It would've been a bumpy ride , and I don't think people would have the stomach for it.
But ultimately I believed he'd eventually excel and really develop the young players we brought in under Ange
 
I'm backing Frank until the new year anyway. If we don't win this weekend then I imagine it's going to become toxic but I don't see a quick fix. Our best chance is to give him time to get it right. Glasner isn't a guarantee to be any better. Same with iraola. Its not worth twisting yet
 
I know it was primarily a reactive measure to pack the middle and push PSG to wide areas at all costs. But factoring in his consistent aversion to playing through the middle since the beginning of the season, going with a diamond where you almost have no choice but to progress through there was surprising.

Gray and Bergvall in particular coped alright with it though,indicating that Frank's overwhelming fear of turning the ball over in dangerous areas might be quite baseless actually. Hope he is reconsidering a few things after this game in that regard.

Conte???
 
Think the last week will be the making or breaking of Franky boy.

I hope he’s learnt about this squad in one of the harshest crash courses you can have. I hope he’s learnt what it means to be Tottenham Hotspur manager.

I want him to succeed. I want every boss to do so. So I hope this week can really be that ‘lightbulb’ moment for him.

If at 6:45pm tomorrow evening we see a Palhinha and Bentancur midfield duo - we know he didn’t learn a thing . . .

If only he had you to guide him.
What with all of the top level silverware you have won with elite level club football teams.

Maybe he should be sacked, for the glaring omission of failing to seek your guidance?
 
I felt the same. Sounded so small time. I get trying to put a positive spin on things, but crowing about conceded 5 goals. The bloke still sounds like he's managing Brentford.

I am sorry to say, the guy does not look or sound anything close to a elite manager or a manager that should be in charge of a big club.

You would never see Conte, Jose or even Poch act like that after conceding 5.
What would you have answered on live TV?
Would you call out the team for being poor? Insist we should be in a position to win out against the best team in Europe?
How would you use that occasion to create a positive impact on the team's future performance?

To me, you address the dirty laundry internally. Externally, you stand up for your team.
