Anyone else think he could suit an Italian team perfectly in terms of his tactics and he'd do quite well there?
All the best to him, great personality in the game, will miss him being in the prem being with the media, with or without us, but it sure as he'll wasn't worth it for the football he got us playing

It's because the failures can be relative. His failures in that time are 1x league, 1xEuropa Cup and 2x league cup. Now maybe add in the nothing won at Spurs and the way the other jobs ended points to a terminal decline in his career but for most clubs/managers those failures would be high points.

The crazy thing is a twitter post suggesting we are paying him €9m for the next 2 years. Can't think of many jobs where you are rewarded for failing quite so well.

I guess it’s a fixed term contract, if you want to end it early to have to payout the remainder of what’s owed.

Just makes me wonder why given the way football managers are treated that 1 year contracts aren't a thing. It's not like they are assets like players. Aside from Nagelsmann it seems pretty rare for managers to transfer for big money.

Mainly because they want some security. The same way that most people don't want to sign fixed contracts for work.

Because Managers wouldn’t sign 1 year contracts and good managers are exactly assets.
Just compare the value of the club before Poch and afterwards. If a club gets the right manager they can have undreamed of success. To get the right manager you need to provide them with some job security and also keep away other clubs that might want your manager.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if he tried to bring two of his three most loyal players (Kane the obvious third) to Rome.
We need to keep Højbjerg though. Dier can go.

They don't have the sort of money to be shopping at this level. Free transfers, loans or unknown youngsters is more realistic.

They have a billionaire owner who is ready to spend.
