Alternatively Poch could just say any of the many rather mundane things that trigger the MAGA crowd, get fired, get a pay off and join us for free...
(Edit: No, it isn't lost on me that the above would probably also count to some as one such sentence).

I find it strange that some people on here show such disrespect to Sherwood's time as manager at Spurs. I'm not sure what it was about the really high points per game levels that they didn't like?
Was it because he used to wear a gillet or something like that?

His record spans 22 PL games so I think most just see it as it is, offset with the fact the blokes fairly dislikable. If his win % spanned longer then maybe there would be a trade off, but it doesnt, so I just see him as he is and was.

Ultimately it needs to be someone the players respect and want to play for. Not much time for patters of play etc with the limited players we have fit.
I think some consultation with the influential players is required, simply no point getting someone in they are not gonna play for. Give fit the players £2mill bonus for staying up.
I think we need to pander to the players a bit here.

I hate to say it, but I think you are right, looking at whats to work with its not a bunch of mentality monsters, in fact the complete opposite, its going to need a fit to massage this lot through

So do I…. Somebody who came in, got us playing better, promoted some of the young players , achieved our best points per PL game record and left us with a Europa League qualification.
I’d like some more of those sorts of managers please and no more of these Frank types….

Why are people voting for Mason? The guy who guided West Brom into the relegation zone is the one that will get Tottenham out of it? Really? We were very bland when he was interim before, and that was with a team full of quality and with leaders, and without half the squad injured.
We should stay well clear of him. And Di Zerbi! He's toxic!

Yeah I agree. He had limited experience, a lot of our games were coin tosses who won, but he did well all things considered…and….also had Adebayor playing the best football of his career. Far better than many of our managers.

We can’t afford Mason/Heitiga etc with where we are in the league, this is not a United/Carrick situation where we are sitting 6th in the league. Danger with assistants or ex players is they lack the experience of these types of battles and while it may help them grow we can ill afford them the time to make mistakes with only a 5 point buffer. This is why clubs turned to the likes of Alladyce/Pullis/Redknapp when in trouble.
For 12 games maybe Redknapp is the answer, Poch has experience but I think any return for him is a disaster waiting to happen, of the rest (looking at the last 30 managers leave and not in a role now we have: Postecoglu/Maresca/Amorim/Potter/Lopetegui/Russel Martin/Ten Hag/Gary O’Neil/Brendon Rogers/Allardyce (Leeds 2023)/Viera.
Does anyone on the list jump out as stand out?

Maresca, but he's a systems coach and that isn't what we need.
We need a motivator type for the last 12 games - rules out most of those. Maybe Brendan Rogers. Otherwise it's back to Ange.
Or, just get Poch early, but not sure he's leave the US before the WC. Still, we should try - we are in danger of going down, he can fix it. Maybe one of the only people who can.

On evidence it takes Poch half a season to get anything going (us/PSG/Chelsea even Southampton) he is not the answer now and I have my doubts longer term as well, but just thinking for the now he will get us relegated

Who? Almeida? 13th in a La Liga. Or is there one of our old players out there doing something?

Noted, and I appreciate that is true. But - too much at the moment is dependent on intangibles. It isn't about records anymore. Simply put, you need a manager that will put bums in seats, that will sing to support the team, and you need someone who can make the players run their hearts out and fight to survive.
Poch achieves both of the above. Nobody else really does unless we shock the world and appoint Xabi Alonso, Zidane, or someone who enjoys respect by virtue of their record.
We need 11 points in 12 games - even a totally average Poch start, should get us those, I think.
