Dear lord I’m really getting my hopes up for Nagelsmann! I’m ready to get hurt again

They all want "a decisive say in transfer dealings" at the start.

They get promised a carefully phrased degree of autonomy. Club ownership and manager soon develop differing concepts of how to define "decisive".

It's happened at least seven times in succession, dating back to Harry Redknapp or even earlier.

Pass the salt.

If he doesn’t get a say in transfer dealings what is the point. Any new manager needs to be able to have the players he wants. It seems like stating the obvious but who knows with Spurs.

The way it should work, assuming we have a DoF/Sporting Director is this;

Coach identifies a positional weakness.
DoF/Coach draw up a list of suitable players in order of preference. No player should be on that list without agreement of both parties.
DoF/Munn work out suitability based on Club philosophy & budgets and players put in definitive desired order.
DoF begins negotiations for player A, moving onto B should A be unavailable/unattainable. And so on.

So coach would have a 'decisive say'.

In principle, but the problem arises when DoF/Munn determin the suitability of the player differently to the Coach and when Coach believes Player A is attainable but DoF/Munn dont and move on to B.

Moving on to Player B or C has been our biggest downfall over the years

He will have “a say”. All managers have a say.

He wants decision making control. That’s a matter of degree and choice of phrasing, as my previous post says. Levy can easily give the new manager something that sounds like control, but has plausible deniability that what was intended was only “a say”.

This is perhaps less of a torturous issue, now that the stadium has been built. There’s more revenue and less need to hoard capital for construction.

Why Rangnick advises Nagelsmann to join Tottenham

Julian Nagelsmann continues to be linked with the open coaching position at Tottenham. Ralf Rangnick sees several plus points for Spurs – but also an open question.

While the team stumbles in the final sprint of the season and could even lose European qualifying altogether, Tottenham Hotspur's senior management is still looking for a new coach for the new season. Julian Nagelsmann still seems to be a promising candidate - who Ralf Rangnick can also imagine in London.

"I think Tottenham is an exciting club in many ways," said the current coach of the Austrian national team, who was coach at Manchester United for six months last season, on Wednesday evening on "Sky". The framework conditions alone speak for this.

"They currently have one of the most modern, beautiful stadiums in the world and they have one of the best training centers," Rangnick explained. Club boss Daniel Levy is "not a big spender" and looks very much at the money, but after many years at Spurs he knows the football business and is someone who "does not necessarily want to put himself in the center and focus of the camera".

Rangnick: "And it's London"

In addition, the expectations are limited. "There's a lot of room for improvement at the moment, but it's not a club where you expect it to end up in the top one, two or three right away" - which is "possible" "if you work well" says Rangnick. Mauricio Pochettino proved that, who regularly led Spurs to the Champions League and there in 2019 to the final.

A crucial question is still open for Rangnick: sports director Fabio Paratici has been banned for his involvement in the financial scandals at Juventus Turin and has therefore resigned from his post, and his successor has not yet been decided. "Should Tottenham really want him (Nagelsmann, editor's note), it would be important if there was also a sporting director to stand by him."

All in all, it could be "a very, very exciting story" between Nagelsmann and Tottenham, says Rangnick, who once worked with the 35-year-old coach in Leipzig. "And it's London, you just have to see that, that's a high quality of life for every coach."

So it has be accepted from the outset. Otherwise that is the wrong person for the job.

I always wondered how a normal club was supposed to work

Less need

But maybe no less desire
