    Next Spurs Manager v.2

    Pochettino: - Zero experience coaching before being given his first job, coming almost directly from the playing staff at "his" club, Espanyol - Sacked when bottom of the league after 2 seasons - Has been in PL job at SCBC for 1 season, 50 games or so - Has had a pre-season to prep & has had...

    Next Spurs Manager v.2

    I really think this is the kind of appointment we should avoid. I worry about managers who have success at one single club over a short period of time, and to boot at a club where they have a special history or connection (as Simeone has with AM). It just doesn't transfer elsewhere that easily...

    Fergie: Retired, Moyes: Sacked, LVG/Giggs: The New Super Duo

    Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring - Moyes Taking Over What the hell were the Everton fans at booing Moyes on Sunday? I've always considered Everton fans towards the classier end of the fan scale, but I think they really let themselves down there. No need for it at all, it didn't gain anything for...

    The decision to fire AVB

    Dealing with the media isn't contingent or optional. It's a key part of the job spec, like putting out the cones or handing in the team sheet. You don't get to absent yourself from that just because you are a Portuguese Baron and consider yourself above the grubby fray. You and I can argue...

    Next Spurs Manager v.2

    Allegri's CV: 2003–2004 Aglianese 2004–2005 Real SPAL 2005 Grosseto 2006 Grosseto 2007–2008 Sassuolo 2008–2010 Cagliari 2010–2014 Milan That is Ramos and Santini all over again. Yes, a Serie A title 4 years ago is impressive, but so was winning the EL twice and coaching...

    Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring - Moyes Taking Over Totally agree. I think he'd be perfect for them.

    Christian Eriksen

    In all the recent hysteria people seem to have missed that our forward midfielders have been playing with amazing fluidity recently. You can see it in the heat/passing maps. Chadli, Eriksen and Lennon have been swapping around all over the place, supported by Ade and Kane dropping back in...

    Fergie: Retired, Moyes: Sacked, LVG/Giggs: The New Super Duo

    Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring - Moyes Taking Over Looking at RedCafe I'm amazed at the level of unanimity behind Klopp. I'd say it's 8 out of 10 posters or something. Not a lot of love for LvG. I actually think Klopp would be a pretty risky appointment for them though. Exciting for sure, but...

    I honestly don't think so Ron. Oddschecker says in order that it's: 1. LvG 2. Allegri 3. Poccetinho 4. Mancini 5. Rafa 6. Moyes 7. FdB 8. Klinsmann 9. Klopp 10. Spaletti 11. Laudrup 12. Capello 13. Hiddink 14. Donadoni 15. Ancelloti...

    Next Spurs Manager v.2

    Anyone who hates Tim Sherwood - I hear there are one or two around the place - should transform themselves into avid fanatics of Atletico, Barca and Bayern for the rest of the season. Because unless Carlo gets the chop...

    Next Spurs Manager v.2

    Man. United sack a manager for the first time in 25 years... ...just as Spurs have their best prospective manager in 25 years - or more - lined up. This is just Lasagne by another name. It's Chelsea fluking the European Cup. It's Martin Fulop having the worst game of his professional career on...

    Fergie: Retired, Moyes: Sacked, LVG/Giggs: The New Super Duo

    Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring - Moyes Taking Over Yeah, I think you are spot on. A bit like AVB's end: nothing really changed after the Liverpool game, and yet a tipping point was suddenly reached. Kinda felt the same way for United with the Everton game. Have to say, I'd have bet the...

    Christian Eriksen

    Look, I don't want to fight. But let me try to give you an insight into what is driving me to the edge of madness. It's this: Eriksen Under AVB Games available to play: 9 Starts: 5 Start %: 55% Games finished: 1 Eriksen Under Sherwood Games available to play: 17 Starts: 15 Start %: 88% Games...

    Is English football changing?

    Ironically, I think the more attacking football we're seeing in Spain and Italy these days is as a result of the triumph of the English game in the post Italia '90 world. I make Italia '90 the cut-off point because a HELL of a lot changed after that WC. It really was a major watershed moment...

    Christian Eriksen

    Sorry Cochise, I don't want to have a go, but this post is typical of what we're seeing on this board at the moment. Paragraph 1: Downplay any credit that might be due Sherwood Paragraph 2: Exaggerate any credit that might be due AVB It really is bizarre how this kind of rewriting of history...

    Harry Kane MBE

    I know it's going to sound a bit mad, but I was thinking there's another player you can compare Kane to, even if it doesn't seem obvious at first: Peter Crouch.

    General Transfer Discussion Thread

    Re: Transfer Rumours Do we need a forward? I think Ade/Soldado/Kane is a potentially outstanding roster. And given we'll be integrating maybe 2 new CB's, a new LB, plus Lamela* as a de facto new signing, I'm not sure there's room for that many new faces. * Although I'm not at all...

    Tim Sherwood…gone \o/

    Re: Tim Sherwood - Head Coach I think Sherwood would be exceptionally foolish to turn down the chance to work under LvG. He won't ever again get that kind of chance again, and it would be far better for him as a coach learning his trade then going off to Norwich or Blackburn. I said...

    Other Premier League Matches Thread

    Just seen the Sunderland penalty decision that drove Jose and his crew nuts. I only saw it from one angle, but wasn't that a pen? Looked like Hastalavistababy took Altidore's leg, even if he didn't mean to. Looks a pretty clear pen to me.
