Are you warming to Sherwood as a future manager?

[Stavrogin]

Seeing the ITK about Redknapp becoming England manager as soon as the opportunity arises, you have to wonder who will replace him.

Everything points to Sherwood becoming a fixture at the club and, in lieu of any other obvious candidates, why not manager sooner rather than later?

People were almost uniformly hostile to him when he returned - has that soften since then?

Me? I suppose seeing him actively promoting/supporting the club now and again has made me more amenable to him. It's not impossible he could take the good stuff Redknapp has done and expand on it.

 

[punky]

Short answer no.

Longer answer... He hasn't had a chance to prove himself but Redknapp sees something in him then he must have some qualities. He shouldn't be thrown straight into the EPL like the rest. He should build his way up. Or else he'll go the way of Ince and Southgate. Even so even if he is a tactical and management genius, he just doesn't have a likeable persona. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing.

When Redknapp goes my first choice would be BMJ. Second would be Clive Allen. He's a yid through and though and he's understudied enough managers at Spurs to know what to do. I was really pleased Redknapp kept him on.

I'm leaning towards "no" too. I'd hope when the time comes to replace Harry (not for a few years hopefully) we'll be in a position to attract one of the top dogs into the post. Delusions? Maybe, but I live in hope!

 

[Spurger King]

I guess it depends on whether or not the current group of players, or at least the core of the squad, respect him, his ideas and methods.

He's been with the squad for a while now, so hopefully he's been learning a lot about the players, and about management from Harry. I'd rather have someone that the players are familiar with taking over, instead of someone who knows little about the players, and wants to impose their own style of coaching onto the side.

I'd rather Clive Allen was given a go, but we'll see.

 

[Niko]

José will be bored of Madrid by then...

 

[Kendall]

How could we? he's been a coach for 5 minutes.

Surely Bond and Jordan are ahead of him in the order of peck.

 

[joevictory]

think i'd rather have William Gallas as player/manager than Tim Sherwood!!

 

[kaz Hirai]

guess its possible that redknapp will take the job if it comes up. Find it funny how due to a poor world cup the media are doing their best to get Cappello out of the Job.

I mean Making a huge fuss that he said david beckham wont be part of his plans anymore, the dude is 35 for christs sake! :lol: total witch hunt

oh we must have an English manger next time, yeah because that worked out so well for keegan, taylor, Mcclown and hoddle.

If Harry does go then i suppose Jol would be a favourite though i never much liked our football under him, maybe sherwood would be best in several years once he has alot more experience. either way the FA would be fools to sake cappello before he's had one more crack at a tournament, he isnt the problem this golden generation of shite is

oh but english players do so well in the champions league, yeah that's because they play along side top foreign players. rant over

Oh dear :roll:

Yep thats what I think too not forgetting Clive Allen . Suspect Jordan and Allen prefer not to be in the number one seat .


There are plenty of other candidates I'd prefer ahead of Sherwood .

David Moyes has been outstanding on a shoestring budget and should definitely be near the top of the shortlist to succeed Harry . Roy Hodgeson if he was a bit younger .

A less obvious choice would be Tony Pulis who is extremely savvy and was given his first behind the scenes job by Harry Redknap . His teams play far better football than they get credit for .

Steve McClaren did well at Boro and is going great guns at FC Twentie . By the time Harry retires he will probably be out of our range at Man City or another wealthier club .

Only if he actually worked as manager for a few years and was seen doing a really good job. I'd certainly wouldn't want to see him taking on Spurs as his first club!

What's his job at the moment. Sitting in the stands and occasionally talking to the press.....seriously i don't know.

 

[Coyboy]

Jordan and Bond are best as coaches, I get that feeling with Sherwood but also like Allen, that he could be a manager. Not something I have given that much thought to be honest.

Like Ferdinand, he is a coach but higher in the pecking order and clearly has been promoted by the club by giving a nebulous job title. I quite like his mentality the way he comes across, I like Sir Les but think he could be too nice to be a manager.

Sherwood, I get the feeling, doesn't mind calling a **** a ****.

 

[PT]

Martin Oneill for me if Harry moves on.

ok, thanks


As i said.......i wouldn't mind him if i could see him getting some experience and actually did some good work. But not taking on Spurs as his first job.

Pulis can bring Gerry Francis back to the Lane. He's a coach at Stoke now. I miss his excuses on MOTD :lol:

 

[dontcallme]

In general I'm against giving managers their first job at Spurs. We're a Premiership club with CL ambitions. It's the sort of job that is well sought after and an experienced manager with the right attributes is necessary.

If we do hire a new manager I'd like it be someone with a wealth of experience of coaching and different roles within a football club. Not that I want him to be manager but Bond fits the bill much better than Sherwood, so does Jordan.
