FORMER Manager Watch: Nuno Espírito Santo

[sidford]

I miss @JJetset

 

[Fidget]

Okay, Brits, please educate this Yank: Which news sources *are* reputable? All I see is comments like "lol if THEY say it THE OPPOSITE is true."

Mirror? Guardian? Sun? Who are we to trust? (THIS IS A SERIOUS INQUIRY)

None lol

 

[stonebrow]

Wasn't he involved in his hiring? wording makes it sound like he didn't get involved in the hiring and now this is what happens when he leaves it to others

Was he not?

Whether he was or wasnt this time, the fact is he has got it wrong multiple times previously and it doesnt give him the right to be upset at someone elses decisions and absolve himself of any blame!

 

[PaulM]

I don't know about punches being thrown, but I would hope some of those players were tearing strips off the others, the shirkers. If I knew that happened, I'd be quite encouraged to be honest.

.

If Hojbjerg said what he said on TV and said nothing in the dressing room, he may as well leave. You saw Dier call Alli on his moaning in the documentary and I can't believe he'd have kept quiet. Hugo also nearly killed Sonny for not tracking in that documentary. No way he'd have shrugged his shoulders yesterday and said nothing.

I'd be pretty sure there was strong words in there. Problem is, I'm sure there have been lots of strong words over the last few years. We need more than that at the moment. A manager with a clue about how to attack would be a start.

Just catching up with all of this after a crazy few weeks. Have barely been able to visit the site. I put some feelers out earlier and just heard back that he's basically gone (nothing you all didn't know already) and we're considering throwing a large sum at Conte to try and get him to come. On a personal level, I don't think we have a chance and it's probably some bullshit to momentarily appease the fans, but I thought it was interesting all the same.

Conte would be nuts to join us now. We're a right mess

Wouldn't surprise me.

Levy is so reactive it's unreal.

This will be about right, treat us like stupid *****!

Think you hit nail on head mate, don't buy this Conte shit at all. It's all part of the play book to try placate fans. So fucking transparent and no-one has any faith in willows little brother anymore he's burned us too many times

 

[panoma]

I would also like to report water is indeed, wet.

False!

Glad to hear Levy’s thinking outside the box

 

[wayneg]

Any manager coming in now has the fixture list to create momentum and the ability to get fans on side etc

 

[PaulM]

Yeah I hear what you’re saying, and you’re right. From a selfish perspective, I’d just would like someone to put players in their place and point out how their actions are hurting the thousands that pay good money and deserve to be humiliated. Feel some quickly run down the tunnel and get back to being on their phone and checking whatever is more important to them.

I hear you mate. I spent a fortune going over this week in flights and accommodation with my son and I was seething at full time. Fucking gutted enough we lost but he was looking forward to it for ages and we don't even muster a shot on target. He already knows what it is to be a Spurs fan ("they always let us down") and he's 9. Would have loved someone to do exactly what you suggested but it'd be counter productive.

 

[The Doc]

Same….. DL also not happy and will be involved in replacement.

Lol. Can't wait to see how he tries to spin this. "When I said we took our eye off the ball and spoke about a return to attacking free-flowing football, I mistakenly left it up to Fabio to interpret my vision for you, our beautiful supporters. The resulting calamity is all down to Fabio, who has received a proper telling off, and I can assure you all, our beautiful supporters, that I will now be in sole control of all football decisions from this point onwards. I know how much you all love me, and in no small part to the dedication of my dietician and personal trainer, I can assure you all, our beautiful supporters, that I intend sticking around for at least another 50 years. COYS." Or something like that.

Welcome back and thanks for passing your info on.

This is why we need to sack him now and make the right appointment.

We can still salvage the season.

It’s always the way. The club will make the right sounds and then do the complete fucking opposite.

It’s the god damn hope

 

[dondo]

Fair point, I just think it's a bit harsh to judge when we've served up such turgid shite of late. None of our players have looked any good, for quite a while, which has been down to the managers and their set up/directions.

Fair point too maybe he will look better with a better system/role but I’m not convinced personally

 

[Trent Crimm]

Kane picks the team anyway. Make him player manager ?
