Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

Re: Avb done (official)

Poor guy. I genuinely have no idea who we get to replace him...I think a myriad of factors combined to make it a tough few months, and I don't think it was all his doing. If everyone at the club stuck together he could have turned it round. That he didn't is a shame but we have to move on.

Buggered if I know what the direction is we should take now though.
 
Re: Avb done (official)

Can't believe this.....gutted. Wrong knee jerk decision. I do hope Levy has something up his sleeve.
 
Re: Avb done (official)

was looking increasing likely that he wasn't up to the job - strange timing though it has to be said

right before a mid week cup game

idiotic decision

Re: ***The Official AVB Discussion Thread***

Yes that's what I'm saying. If you don't have the budget you cannot consistently compete with the Citys and Chelseas of this world. Can you show me any top league where a side with significantly smaller resources than the top sides has consistently competed with those top sides.

Aside from Lloris, we do not have one top class player in our squad. We cannot compete with the likes of City who have half a dozen. Put Jesus in the manager's chair and the result is still the same.

I really hate to say it, but that lot down the road are much closer than we are.
 
Re: Avb done (official)

good for all parties. He came across as a nice bloke but in the end those results were not acceptable.

I just hope we can go back to playing football.

we need to make sure we make the most of what we have so when the teams above us are less than their best we can capitalize and move above them. I don't think after his last two seasons we can say that Redknapp was getting the maximum out of the squad/team.
 
Re: Avb done (official)

For the best.
I think we have made very little progress from the time he took over. If were being honest this season is pretty much what we would have gotten last season if not for Bale.
Still, a good man and I wish him luck.
Goodbye Andre
 
Re: Avb done (official)

Jesus, there goes our top four challenge for this season then... It's a cruel, ruthless game these days.
 
Re: Avb done (official)

Don't agree with the decision, really. We are not in that bad a position FFS, in fact we're in a pretty decent position overall. I appreciate the writing was on the wall after yesterday... but AVB deserved time to fix this situation.

I don't know who the hell we will find to replace him. That's the biggest and most pressing issue for me.

This is a dark day for the club. The same old farce of Tottenham Hotspur lives to fight another day. We will never reach the top with this same old recurring madness.

I hope Levy knows what he's doing...
