lol just saw this in The Times. If true and we do get him (a big if i reckon) it could be exciting watching Spurs play. Saying that Jol did give us some memorable performances.

Not since Osvaldo Ardiles thrilled White Hart Lane by playing with five forwards in 1994 will Tottenham have had a manager who is so committed to all-out attack. Ramos loves the beautiful game so much – “my ideology is always to attack, to entertain and never to spoil a game,” he said – that as manager of Rayo Vallecano six years ago he deliberately reduced his team to ten men as he was unhappy with his players coasting to a 2-0 win.
“The players were not trying, so I took the drastic step of taking a player off as I wanted them to work,” he said. “We played with ten men and won 2-0. I knew I could have been killed by the press and the fans, but I wanted to teach the players a lesson. I was so fed up that I had to do something.”
